.... people with ADHD focus their attention, build self-esteem, and function in new ways. There are also new avenues of research promising to further improve diagnosis and treatment. With so many American children diagnosed as having attention disorder, research on ADHD has become a national priority. ADHD does not have clear physical signs that can be seen in a x-ray or lab test. Looking for certain characteristic behaviors can only identify ADHD and these behaviors vary from person to person.
