In ADHD: The Ultimate Teen Guide, John Aspromonte looks at the causes of this condition, examines its various symptoms, and dispels the myths associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Most importantly, the author offers sound advice about how to cope with ADHD. Included in this volume are details about: -how ADHD affects family members and friends -what treatment options are available, including counseling -what medications are most frequently prescribed, along with their potential side effects In addition to input from medical experts, this book features personal stories and quotes from teens, providing readers with a balanced insight into ADHD.
