Distractibility, Why Can't Your Child Stay Focused?
Distractibility is more than a short attention span. Distractibility is when one is hypersensitive to the environment around them. Imagine your child sitting in class at their desk trying to pay attention to the teacher, but he sees that his classmate has a new folder, or he sees that the janitor is outside sweeping and now he is distracted and no longer paying attention to the teacher. It is that easy. Most of us can ignore environmental sights and sounds, but a child with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder who suffers from distractibility cannot. The distractibility is likely due to underactivity in the prefrontal cortex of the brain.
The prefrontal cortex is what tells the areas of the brain to settle down. It sends inhibitory signals to the parietal lobes to filter out sights and sounds of the environment. It also sends inhibitory signals to the limbic system (emotional centers of the brain). This causes internal distractibility, where one may be distracted by not only outside stimuli, but also by internal thoughts and emotions.
If you think your child suffers from distractibility then look for other symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder such as:
- Problems adapting to new things
- A tendency to disturb other children
- Self-destructive behavior
- Difficulty doing assignments or chores on one's own
- Temper Tantrums
- Impatience; difficulty waiting
- Low tolerance for stress and otherwise ordinary problems
- A tendency to become frustrated quickly
- Inability to sit still for any length of time
- Impulsive, unpredictable, or daring behavior
- Clumsiness or awkwardness
- A tendency to talk too much
- Disruptiveness in the classroom
- A tendency to blurt out answers without having heard the entire question
- Failure in school despite average or above average intelligence
It is important to get an early diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. If the disorder gets left undiagnosed and untreated then the child with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder may start to suffer from low self-esteem, depression, or even anxiety disorders. Adults with this hyperactivity disorder may have problems with relationships and in the work place.
Some of
the treatments used for Attention
Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders are: pharmaceutical drugs
(stimulant, non-stimulant, and antidepressants), cognitive-behavioral
therapy, social skills training, parent education, and some
modifications to educational programs. The stimulant pharmaceutical
drugs have unfortunate side effects such as: loss of appetite,
weight loss, sleeping problems, irritability, rapid heart
rate, elevated blood pressure, withdrawn behavior, tics, and
suppression of growth. Also, antidepressant pharmaceutical
drugs can be habit forming.
