[QUOTE="Cedar Creek, post: 2513004, member: 12387"] I read information on the research 4 or 5 years ago and the significant findings were that many young people from disfunctional backgrounds were misdiagnosed with ADHD or hyperactivity when they actually suffered from a form of PTSD that was then termed "hypervigilance". A short description of the theory is that kids who are constantly exposed to trauma, drama, etc. are unable to concentrate or focus on academics because they are too caught up in worrying about what happened last or is going to happen next.
