Question

My child is 10 years old and constantly twitches their limbs, saying they have ADHD. How should ADHD be treated?

Answer

The treatment for ADHD in children should be approached with a proactive attitude, combining medication and psychological therapy. Medication treatment mainly involves drugs that improve and regulate neurotransmitters, such as long-acting and short-acting methylphenidate preparations. Psychological therapy primarily helps children regain self-confidence, with common methods including cognitive-behavioral therapy, dynamic psychotherapy, family therapy, and sand tray game therapy.
