Adult Add Treatments

Adults suffering from attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADD) have problems at work, in school, and in social relationships. There are a variety of treatments available. The most effective treatment usually is counseling and medication.

Stimulant medications reduce symptoms by increasing levels brain chemicals that control moods and behavior. They include methylphenidate, which is sold under the brand name Ritalin and amphetamines, such as lisdexamphetamine that are available under the brand names Adderall and Vyvanse.

Support Groups

A support group is a group of people who share similar experiences and challenges who are willing to help each to help each. The majority of these groups are run by volunteers and are free to join. Support groups can provide information on local services for addiction and mental health issues. Support groups aren't a substitute for professional treatment, however they can be an vital part of recovery.


A good support group will welcome new members and help them feel comfortable by allowing them to members to introduce themselves. The group should also allow open-ended questions, which will stimulate discussion. Keep in full report that not everyone will be able to speak simultaneously. Therefore, it is helpful to make a list of topics and establish a time limit for each member to participate.

Some support groups are based on a specific topic such as parenting or eating disorders, while others have an open-ended theme. They are often less structured than groups facilitated by licensed professionals and focus on the exchange of personal experiences. Support groups usually don't have a specific leader and operate on a an individual basis, however they might have coordinators who organize the meetings and provide other services to the members.

It is important to remember that discussions within groups are private, and it's necessary to remind the members of this fact regularly. Some facilitators and members of the group are obligated reporters. This means that they must report to the police any information about physical harm, even if it is discussed in private. This topic should be discussed at the beginning of the group but can be repeated on regular basis.

A support group is an excellent opportunity to meet others who face the same problems and can be extremely beneficial in developing an understanding of community. The experience of watching other people overcome their obstacles can be inspiring and can give people a sense of hope for the future.
