Neuropsychiatric disorders often manifest themselves in childhood as hyperactivity or inability to focus. Sometimes, however, the symptoms are identified or start to appear later in life or emerge as a result of an accident or illness impacting the brain. It is important to diagnose such disorders and plan the necessary treatment without delay to ensure that the patient receives the help they need to handle the situation.
The most common neuropsychiatric disorders are ADHD, ADD, autism, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Tourette syndrome. The symptoms caused by these disorders vary considerably in terms of severity and, in some cases, do not cause considerable difficulty. However, a more severe form of these disorders may have a significant impact on the person’s quality of life, making it extremely important to diagnose the disorder and plan the appropriate treatment.
