When anger is present, it has a wide range of effects. Our hearts beat faster, our minds may not think straight, and we may be saying and doing things before we even know it (or at least it feels that way).

In addition to things we cannot observe with our own eyes, anger also affects things we do. Our behavior when we’re mad differs from when we’re calm. People sometimes drink when they’re angry. Overeating, yelling, throwing things, skipping work, or just sitting and fuming are all common behaviors.

Learning skills to manage our anger and not become controlled by anger is essential. Almost every aspect of our lives becomes affected when anger gets out of control, affecting our personal lives, careers, and relationships with others.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder, meaning the onset of ADHD occurs in childhood, although diagnosis can occur at any age. The symptoms of ADHD are characterized by a consistent pattern of inattention, hyperactivity or both.

If you are looking for treatment for ADHD for yourself or your child, it is important to first consider what type of treatment you are looking for. Pediatricians are often very familiar with working with children with ADHD and can be a good place to start. If you are curious about medication, you will want to schedule an appointment with a Psychiatrist or Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner.

These are the professionals who are able to prescribe and manage medication. If you are looking for behavioral psychotherapy as a means of treating ADHD, you will want to look for therapists who specialize in behavioral therapy, and have experience working with ADHD.
