IMG_3711.JPGAttention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a disorder in the central nervous system, or more precisely, in the retinal operating system, which causes difficulties in listening and concentration, learning and memory, and difficulties in processing and sorting information and incoming stimuli From the inner (subjective) world of man, and from the external (objective) world. Attention deficit disorder usually causes its sufferers great frustration, stress and stress. Attention deficit disorder interferes comprehensively with all forms of learning, both academic and experiential in children, adolescents, and adults.

Common characteristics among people with attention disorders

Easily give up tasks, tasks, and hobbies.

Skills of examining faulty reality, and evading logic.

Integration skills, the general and individual implications for all are flawed.

Poor attention and concentration skills, unable to focus on the subject over time.

Difficulties in maintaining and managing short- and long-term memory.

Difficulties in making decisions, or choosing between options without unnecessary anxiety.

Poor planning skills, unable to persist consistently or complete tasks.

Difficulties in distinguishing between competing external stimuli.

It is easy to divert them from assignments, conversations or social connections.

They are often over-stimulated and over-sensitive to their surroundings.

Poor listening skills, often breaking into others' words, suddenly change the subject.

Are easily excited, react quickly and move quickly from one state to another.

Difficulties in being able to manage emotional responses, reacting excessively to patterns of nerve suppression sequence, which causes tantrums.

Easily frustrated, emotional instability and a tendency to cry, leading to sudden mood swings and behavioral inconsistencies.

Often hyperactive, nervous, restless emotions take over.

Inability to maintain proper social behavior often interferes with school.

Find it difficult to follow instructions and instructions.

Impatient, persistent difficulties in delaying gratification.

Require too much, may develop a tendency to self-destruction and aggression.

Poor sleep patterns, often feel tired, angry or depressed during awakening from sleep.

What are the causes of ADHD?

Attention deficit disorder is a restrictive metabolic disorder of the retinal operating system, the center of consciousness that coordinates learning and memory, which normally provides the appropriate neural connections needed for ongoing information processing and clear, non-stressful attention. First, this metabolic disorder limits the development of neural connections and the neuronal density required for efficient and multivariate processing (ie, there is a lack of body processing organs, the "hardware"). Second, this "hardware" limitation leads to an imbalance in the formation of neural chemical transducers (ie, "programming switches" or "software" that "lighten" and "shut down" the hardware, such as dopamine and norepinephrine) An additional balance between processing in the left and right lobe.

The network operating system and its connections - in the center of awareness, attention and learning

The retinal operating system probably is involved in the neurological mechanisms that generate awareness and focused attention. It receives impulses from the spinal cord and transfers them to the thalamus, and from there to the cortex, and returns in a feedback circuit to the hippocampus / thalamus / hypothalamus and to the participating neuronal structures for learning and memory. When there is enough stimulation to create awareness, but there is not enough stimulation to generate attention, the result is attention deficit disorder or learning disability, and when there is too much stimulation, the person can not Relax or concentrate (and thus get hyper-stimulation or hyperactivity), which often leads to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

How does this "hardware" shortage affect learning and memory?

Patterns of memory and association require the continuous creation of new neural connections within the brain, and an increase in the amount of neurotransmitter and chemical leaders to serve these connections. When there is a lack of neural building materials, it is difficult to fill the demand for new connections, which interferes with the efficient processing of information, frustrates the person with ADHD, and makes learning very difficult, if not impossible. In other words, neuronal "hardware" remains in a limited state of creation (insufficient), and the supply of new "ways" or "wiring" does not catch demand (increased stimulation or "movement") for new neural connections within the central nervous system. Thus, it is not possible to satisfy the new demand for processing for learning, memory and information management.

What are the effects of not having enough hardware connections?

When there are not enough connections, the result is excess use and excess pressure in the existing neural pathways, causing "traffic jams" or breakdowns so that nothing is processed. This causes frustration, confusion and behavioral problems among people with ADHD.

How does this limit affect a person's perceptual ability?

Although the attention deficit begins in the brain, it actually involves the entire sensory system (sight, smell, palpation, hearing, etc.) as well as the inner world of thought and emotion. When there is a lack of the number of neural connections needed to smooth the "movement", there is competition between the different stimuli. Excessive stimulation of a number of external and internal sources (excess visual stimulation, excess vocal stimulation, excess internal emotions, etc.) can lead to frustration, irritability, aggression and anxiety. When the brain, or rather the limited neuronal system, is required to work too strenuously in this respect, it fails to "direct" or focus on a specific stimulus while "ignoring" or "reducing" another stimulus.

This inability to focus on a particular stimulus while reducing the other stimuli leads to unnecessary "noise" in the sensory system within the brain. For an ADHD, this "nerve noise" is so indistinguishable, so disturbing and prolonged that it seems like a competitive attack that neutralizes any attempt to concentrate on one stimulus while ignoring other stimuli. This "noise" is so disturbing and uncontrollable that feelings of helplessness and anxiety overwhelm the person
