According to the screening results for ADHD conducted for ages 18–44 by the National Comorbidity Survey Replication (NCS-R) showed that almost 5% of US adults suffer from ADHD. Of those, 40% are women and 60% are men (Kessler et al. 2006)
Estimates suggest that ADHD decreases in only about one-third of adolescence (santrock, 2003). It’s now being recognized that these problems may continue into adulthood. Definitive causes of ADHD have not been found. However, a number of causes have been proposed, such as low levels of certain neurotransmitter (chemical messengers in the
There are many different forms of CBT and the target population varies depending on the form. Some of the many different forms include: trauma-focused CBT for children, CBT for late-life depression, and CBT for adolescent depression to name a few; each form has a variety of age groups intended as its target population. For example CBT for adolescent depression has the target population of individuals ages 13-17 and 18-25 whereas CBT for late-life depression has the target population of individuals ages 55 and older (NREPP, 2014) CBT differs from other forms of psychotherapy in the sense the sessions have more structure. Those with specific focus and goal may benefit more from CBT. It is less suitable for someone who feels vaguely unhappy or unfulfilled, but doesn’t have any symptoms or a particular aspect of their life they want to work on. CBT is effective for a wide variety of mental health disorders, including but not limited to mood, anxiety, personality, eating, substance abuse, sleep, and psychotic
I have just informed you about the basics of ADHD including its definition, and as we have seen from the study, not only would adults benefit from being treated for ADHD, but their children would also be able to reap the benefits as a result of a treated parent.
The World War II and Korean War veterans talk about their trauma and share stories amongst each other, which is beneficial because they all can relate in some shape or form. Since I started observing this PTSD group, many of the veterans expressed how difficult it is to share their combat experiences with their family and friends because they don’t understand. Also, connecting with their loved ones was a whole other issue. The veterans believed that everyone was judging them and therefore they would isolate themselves and cope with substance use. For any veteran with PTSD, it’s important to find people who will listen without judgment (U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 2014). Strengths of using CBT in a PTSD group is identifying thoughts about the world and yourself that are making you feel afraid or upset. With the help of the clinician, the veterans are learning how to replace these thought with more less distressing thoughts in order for them to feel and behave differently about themselves or
For many no matter what facts are available ADHD is simply not real. It is easy to understand where people with this point of view are coming from. Starting off with the fact the ADHD doesn't seem to be present in other countries around the world. Children's psychologist Angela Southall claims that 90% of the worlds Ritalin is being prescribed in the United States (Southhall). So yes ADHD is more prevalent in the United States than anywhere else in the world. This leads many to believe that ADHD is something made up by the United States pharmaceutical industry as some sort of hoax. This is certainly an argument that can be credited even by the opposing point of view. It does seem that pharmaceutical companies are marketing their ADHD medications strategically in the United States to get as many people onboard as possible. On the opposing side of this argument it has little to do with stating whether ADHD is real or not. The ideas of the disorder did in fact come up far before pharmaceuticals were involved in the treatment.
To effectively treat Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD in combat Veterans and service members, therapists use different techniques, which are preceded by addressing any underlying pain associated with the disorder. In their research, Chard et al. (2011) reported significant modifications to the CPT protocol for use with patients in a TBI-PTSD residential treatment facility, including increasing the number of sessions per week, combining group and individual therapy, and augmenting the treatment with cognitive rehabilitation. However, their research was marred with the use of few participants which provides doubts regarding the outcome of the proposed treatment procedures. Moreover, the researchers do not state with certainty as to the
The video was very informative in describing how CBT can be used. I have seen CBT used frequently in our programs, however the effectiveness I fear is not as good as the data would have us believe. I think CBT can be used however only with certain clients and cultures. CBT have been criticized for focusing too much on the power of positive thinking, being too techniques oriented, and working to eliminate symptoms but failing to explore the underlying causes of difficulties (Corey, 2013). I work in a community with majority of our clients are African Americans and Hispanic. Most of the clients in the communities are poverty stricken, and have difficult lives. Using CBT which only focus on the now and positive thoughts can be a difficult concept
There are many negatives involved in ADHD, but what’s often overlooked, are the positives. One of these positives is the fact that this disorder is very manageable and treatable. We have an extended amount of knowledge from numerous studies that have been done since the disorder was discovered. From these studies we now know that this disorder can affect people in many ways and be a burden on someone if not treated properly.
There has been minimal investigation of the association with PTSD treatment outcomes in general, or how they might be associated with different types of treatment. Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) has been established as highly efficacious treatment for PTSD (Monson, Rodriguez, & Warner, 2005), and is perhaps the treatment of choice according to meta-analysis comparing it
Research evidenced that CBT is effective helping clients with anxiety related disorders like PTSD. As part of CBT, exposure therapy, cognitive restructuring, and stress inoculation training (SIT) forms part of the techniques to be used in the treatment of PTSD (National Institute of Mental Health, 2009).
Clients will be taught various communication styles and participate in role-play to develop the communication style needed to exit the life, notify proper authorities, and to say “no.” Clients’ communication skills will be measured by clients completing pre- and post-tests about their communication skills and by an objective observer documenting areas of improvement. This measurement will be a continuous measurement while the client is in the program.
CBT has been shown to be effective way of treating a number of different mental health conditions. Other than depression and anxiety disorder is can also treat people with OCD, panic disorder, PTSD, phobias and eating disorders.
ADHD patients need help from doctors and they also need help from parents. The history of ADHD has been looking for medicine for different ages. ADHD has begun to find cures for different ages. There should be long term care from parents and doctors. Those who support ADHD believe that there should be long term care from parents and doctors. ADHD has begun to find cures for different ages. ADHD doctors have been looking for cures for all ages. Critics that oppose ADHD believe there are already many cures. In the end, this is still an issue that caffeine will help patients even though it is bad for you. ADHD doctors have been looking for a cure for a long time. Some ADHD patients have a harder time because not all of them have a cure. Doctors are working hard to find a cure for patients of all
I, personally, feel that this would be a very reliable method in which to use for patients that are suffering PTSD. The method helps the
