=== Although, the causes of Attention Deficit Disorder are not known, treatment is available with psychotherapy and medications. Many say that no one knows the causes but it said to happen when the brain is developing during the early years of life. Some of the symptoms include: restlessness, acting impulsively, lack of focus, and the inability to learn properly. There are things that trigger the illness such as genetics, diets, and social and physical environments. During early times, people were diagnosed with mild brain damage, hyperactivity, and learning disabilities. No one ever made a definite diagnosis of what it was called. Not until the late 1980’s, doctors and medical boards started calling it Attention Deficit Disorder. The terms were revised. In 1798, a major breakthrough in the history of attention deficit disorder came about through the published works of Sir Alexander Crichton, a Scottish born physician and writer. He was the first one to put forward any evidence of the disease, much before time by calling it a state of mental restlessness in certain individuals. Crichton also observed that various external stimuli led to modification in the behavior pattern of the individual. Based on the modern history of attention deficit disorder, his findings resemble cases of a subtype of ADHD in a person. ===
