Focus: Are Yous Struggling To Sit Still And Focus During The Day!
Struggling with focus as an adult? ADHD isn't just for kids. Learn about symptoms like chronic lateness and disorganisation, plus innovative diagnostic tools like brain mapping technology that can help identify and manage attention challenges in adults.
ADD/ADHD, or Attention Deficit Disorder, is not just limited to children but is often diagnosed in adults. It has a variety of frustrating symptoms which can obstruct everything from your relationships to your career. Struggling with focus can be very real!
Struggling to Focus? Look out for these common signs
- You are constantly late
- You come across as disorganised
- You are forgetful
- You are overwhelmed by your responsibilities
If diagnosed with ADD in childhood, some of the symptoms will often follow you into adulthood. However, it is important to note that you can develop ADD/ADHD in adulthood alone.
What Triggers ADD/ADHD and Disrupts Focus?
The diagnosis of adult-onset ADD has been linked to genetics. Other contributors are exposure to stress during pregnancy and/or childhood, early social interactions, leaky gut and even environmental toxins. Cognitive disorders can now be treated using the latest technology in neuro-response through a unique Brain Mapping technique. The Brain Map measures the brain’s response in targeted areas linked to ADD/ADHD. It can give a clear and detailed indication of areas of concern. By using an FDA-approved device that monitors brain waves, doctors can assist in diagnosing ADHD in children and adults. This is a non-invasive brain mapping test that takes 15-20 minutes. It utilises sensors on the person’s scalp to monitor their brainwaves. This is effective because ADHD patients have a higher theta/beta brainwave, which can only be detected by this test.
In Closing
The good news is that cutting-edge technologies are now available to potentially restore brain functioning through brain training. The brain’s functioning is measured through studying the neurotransmitters, and treatment is tailored to suit each unique individual. However, you can’t force focus, but you can create an ideal environment. The key is to work with the ADD/ADHD brain and not against it. By following these simple tips, you can hopefully restore focus and flourish both at home and at work once again.
