Treating Add

Treating add involves medications as well as counseling and education. Medications for attention deficit disorder (ADD) are usually stimulant drugs such as methylphenidate, amphetamine and dextroamphetamine-amphetamine (Adderall XR, Vyvanse). Atomoxetine, guanfacine and other non-stimulants are available.

Cognitive behavioral therapy can be used in the treatment of adults suffering from ADD. It helps you identify and replace automatic thoughts or irrational ones with positive ones. Family and marriage therapy can aid in improving communication and overcome the challenges of life.

Behavioral therapy





Behavioral therapy is a science-based treatment for a variety of mental conditions. It involves working with a specialist to identify problematic behavior and develop strategies for addressing them. These strategies typically involve replacing an undesirable behavior by implementing an improved one. There are a variety of behavioral therapies, which include operant training, classical conditioning and aversion. Other types of therapy include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT). Ongoing is typically time-bound and focuses on goals that can be measured to ensure that progress is made over time.

Operant conditioning teaches people, for instance, to associate an action with a specific result. Classical conditioning teaches people, on the contrary, to associate a feeling with a specific action.
