If you think your child may have ADHD, the best way to find out for sure is with a professional screening.

If not, they may be able to provide an alternative explanation for your child’s symptoms. Give us a call at (248) 644-9466 to schedule an ADHD screening near Royal Oak MI.

Does My Child Actually Need an ADHD Screening to Get a Diagnosis?

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a manageable condition. But in order to find the right management tactics, you need an official diagnosis. The treatment for anxiety or dyslexia is much different than the treatment for ADHD. Those conditions have overlapping symptoms. Getting an ADHD screening can point you in the right direction for help and support.

Common signs of ADHD in children include the following:

• Trouble paying attention, staying on task, and completing tasks from start to finish
• Outbursts at inappropriate times or interrupting conversations
• Restlessness, edginess, and impatience
• Irritability, mood swings, and quick temper
• Consistently losing or misplacing items
• Difficulty staying organized or memorizing information
• Poor impulse control and a strong desire to take risks
• Starting new tasks before completing others
• Talkativeness and speaking out of turn

The average age for an ADHD diagnosis is seven years old, but children can be diagnosed as early as three years old. The key is to work with a trusted provider who specializes in ADHD testing. Contact Oakland Neuropsychology Center at (248) 644-9466 to schedule an ADHD screening near Royal Oak MI.
