The doctor sighed impatiently and explained, "Your daughter clearly has trouble staying in her seat. You and her teacher have indicated in these forms that she fits the criteria for ADHD according to the DSM; therefore, she has ADHD. That means that her frontal lobe is less developed than that of other kids her age. She produces less dopamine, and there are other altered areas of her brain. Any questions?" "Yes, four hundred questions!" How does a doctor determine that a child "has" ADHD? Why have diagnoses and medications skyrocketed in the past few decades? How does medication work? Is it safe and effective? How do I make the best choice of intervention for my child? These were some of the many questions Avigail Gimpel asked as her own children, students, and clients were being diagnosed with ADHD in record numbers. HyperHealing, Show Me the Science is a fascinating journey of curiosity and understanding. You will get up close and personal with Pharma, ADHD drugs, and leading psychiatric thought leaders. You will learn how the diagnostic process works and understand the history and development of the disorder. This concise, easy-to-read book is at once fascinating and disturbing, informative and entertaining. It is a one-stop shop for parents, teachers, therapists, and anyone who cares for a child struggling with ADHD symptoms. It will give you all the information you need to make true informed-consent decisions when choosing treatment for ADHD.
