Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a disorder commonly known and found in children. Usually known and heard to be as ADHD, this disorder has been treated and is currently treated through therapies, specifically psychotherapy and medication. Diagnosis of ADHD in every patient may vary as well as their symptoms and how patients cope, respond and manage the disorder. There are various types of ADHD that one may suffer based on various criteria and factors set by specialists; and because of this there may also be various treatments that may be applicable to every ADHD patient.

One treatment that research and studies present to ADHD patients is the hypnotherapy. Hypnotherapy, through hypnosis has been found to treat and help patients especially ADHD patients to maintain focus, attention and to be able to control events that have been stressful and that may worsen their inattention and hyperactive symptoms. The disorder has been known to have inattentive, hyperactive and impulsive symptoms. Research and study at the same time present that the disorder may lead to problems when it comes to therapies and medications. At present, there are at least 17 medications found to be effective in treating ADHD. Yet, these seventeen treatments have been found to cause loss of appetite as well as weight problems on patients, insomnia, irritability and other anxiety problems. These are considered to be the negative effects of the said medications that must be carefully handled by patients and specialists. Other therapies that are given to patients like psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and hypnotherapy have been claimed of not producing any side effects. These therapies, especially hypnotherapy will help the patients especially the children to alter and improve their behaviors and to have control and discipline over their actions. Hypnotherapy also needs the assistance and support of parents as well as the cooperation of children as patients.

Due to further research and studies, ADHD has been identified to be a very complicated disorder because of the symptoms it present and the variety of therapies and medications that are applicable to different patients. In hypnotherapy, it is very important that children must be engaged in different social groups or peers where they can pour out their emotions and show their real selves. Other than hypnosis, neurotherapy is also recommended to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. For some reasons that are yet to be studied and discovered, the inattentive and hyperactive symptoms of the disorder eventually vanish as they grow older.
