Getting an education and finding support come first in dealing with ADHD in the family. Medication and other physical or strategic interventions come next. You’ll need to find out more about these and other treatments to effectively manage ADHD. If you can attend them, support groups and annual conferences on ADHD are a great way to fill your needs. But these both take time and may cost more than you are comfortable with.
Today, free written material abounds on the Web, but for those who prefer not to read, not much else has been readily available. Less than five years ago, access to quality audio information was through a few Podcasts and recorded tapes from ADHD conferences. Now, some organizations put on weekly programs. Participating in Webinars is a great way to realize that you really aren’t alone with this disorder and that help is available. Being able to replay the sessions to listen to at your convenience is a great way to fit getting to know more about dealing with ADHD into your life.
For some people, neither audio or printed information will do. Luckily, the internet now has a great choice of videos on ADHD about a large number of specific topics and for different audiences. For them, we’ve put a great collection of video from very short to long to watch whenever the time is right. Some are for entertainment, many are just tips, others are serious examinations of the field, but they all contribute to a greater understanding of ADHD.
There are a few fun short videos at the bottom of this page. Many more video clips and presentations ranging from 45 seconds to an hour in length are available on site. – Topics include: What is ADHD? – ADHD Strategies for Children and Teens – ADHD Songs – ADHD in Adults – Adult Strategies – Presentations with ADHD experts and more.
