Abstract	This guide to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is organized in three parts which address understanding the problem, getting help, and sustaining hope. A question-and-answer format addresses the following topics: symptoms of ADHD; other conditions which may produce similar symptoms; other disorders which may accompany ADHD; causes of ADHD; the identification and diagnosis of ADHD; educational options for the ADHD student; treatments for the individual with ADHD; the possibility of curing or outgrowing ADHD; hope offered by research; and sources of information and support. Three sample cases are used throughout the guide to illustrate major concepts. Suggested resources include books for children, teens, and adults with attention disorders; books for parents; and resources for teachers and specialists. Also listed are 14 organizational resources. (Contains 31 suggested readings.) (DB)
