In this ebook we explore deeper the effects ADD/ADHD can have on not only the sufferer, but also the family. Many misperceptions still exist in society, as demonstrated by the results of a random poll regarding the prevalence of ADD/ADHD in girls versus boys, as well as continued misdiagnoses of the disorder itself.
Understanding these mistaken beliefs is very important, as they may lead to fewer specialist referrals and under-representation in clinical based studies. In addition, the survey also polled children living with
ADD/ADHD, which revealed that gender has a great impact in diagnosing and treating the disorder.
