Yes indeed: Adhd can be helped. There are psychologists trained to provide a type of therapy which helps. As well there are psychiatrists who are trained to provide appropriate and helpful medication which are approved by the fda.

Yes help: The medication used to treat ADHD include methylphenidate (Ritalin, concerta) and amphetamines (Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) and Vyvanse). Non medication approaches include educational supports, cognitive behavioral therapy, assuring a person gets sufficient sleep and eats a balanced diet.
