i have adhd and it's hard to diagnose because there is no laboratory tests, a psychiatrist or psychologist will conclude by only gathering onformation about the child from you and the teachers. i am now 23 years old and i have hurt myself in many ways without knowing that i was sufferin with adhd until i found out about my behaviour through a psychiatrist. you should let your child know about his condition and pls, i beg you, dont put your child on any kind of medication despite the potency f that medication because that will leave your child with a severe mental problem. you should tell your child to cooperate with you. you and your child have to be strong to fight against it because it might seem very small but it can have a very big impact on your life in general and it can destroy your childs future and so will yours. you should teach your child to read more books and make him as religious as possible no matter what your beliefs are because praying and meditating will be very beneficial, also he or she should be away from anythin that contains caffeine because his/her life will depend on it then. and also your child should discover what he likes to do most, for examply any activity that he likes so much that he cant keep track of time and he's lost and enjoys it like nothing else, thats what he should do and will be very successful. Remember! your child is not stupid only because he has adhd, search all the famous people with adhd, and you will find out that all the brilliant well known people suffered from adhd but they were successful because what they are known for is their passion.
