Is anyone familiar with taking a EEG Spectrum test for ADHD?

I was told by a psychologist this test is a series of computer test that test your skills in certain areas to find weak & strong points of the way your brain solves problems and cures ADHD.

Answer 1

Both my sons, who have ADHD, have had this done. You misunderstood though...it will not cure your ADHD but will help develop strategies to improve your weak points and maintain your strong points. It is really a type of therapy. If you'd like to read more about it, including a case history, please check out the links below:

this one is "deep" as it is geared to the medical personnel:

Answer 2

I read it all... didnt even realise how long it was till after aha and well theres not a lot we can do... try just going out and think of it as nothing... when you gonout think to yourself that you are better than everyone ylu see .. this might give you some confidence.... i think getting a job would help massively because you will be working with people in a friendly environment and then friendships sort of just happen.... always remember that if its at its worse now it can only get better and dont ever give up... i think you could be a Hypochondriac and you need specialised help i think... have you been to your local GP??? try going to a private therapist and do exactly what they say you should do but i think most of these problems could be solved just by getting a job because then you get friends then your confidence builds and then they will help you...
