ADHD and Students

Being a student, from childhood to adulthood, can be a tough and critical transition time in a person’s life. Students are compelled to different academic and non-academic bustles – assignments, projects, examinations, socialising, sports and other co-curricular activities.

 

  • The ADHD Centre runs a specialist student ADHD in which we offer a comprehensive diagnosis and treatments service for students of all ages.
  • Our ADHD treatment packages involve a combination of the latest evidence-based treatments, which may include:
  • The latest ADHD medications, which have been shown to be safe and highly effective in clinical practice.
  • Specialist ADHD Coaching, using Cognitive Behavioural Techniques and a Strengths-Based Positive Psychology approach.
  • Specialist ADHD Educational Tutoring.

At The ADHD Centre we have established links with most of the major academic institutions and will work closely with your school, college or university to ensure that you are given the extra help and accommodations that you are entitled to.

These may include:

Extra time in exams
Extended deadlines on coursework
Educational support sessions
Help with preparing lecture materials

Understanding ADHD in Students

Having ADHD impairs the executive function of our brain that we mainly use in school and work.

Here are the most common problems that students with ADHD usually encounter:

Students with ADHD may experience multiple different symptoms which can have varying impacts on their lives. Understanding and addressing these issues, with our support, will allow for the development of healthier coping strategies and more positive long-term outcomes.

The list of symptoms below should be much more specific to students:

 

  • Difficulty in functioning in a busy and noisy surrounding resulting to unproductivity during working hours
  • You quickly become too emotional and petty things push you over the top
  • You find it hard to settle and relax
  • A student often makes careless mistakes since they won’t pay close attention to details
  • Find it difficult to concentrate on one thing
  • Struggles with listening when others are talking
  • Difficulty in following instructions properly.
  • Have a hard time organizing activities
  • Gets easily distracted.
  • Forgets daily tasks or activities.
  • Squirms and fidgets in their seats.
  • Gets up most of the time when everyone is expected to remain seated
