Dr. Julian Haber, a developmental behavioral pediatrician at the Child Study Center in Forth Worth, Texas  is the author of a book titled, “ADHD, The Great Misdiagnosis.”

In this book, Dr. Haber, who has a background of 49 years in medicine, offers aid for parents and professionals searching for a correct diagnosis for children who are struggling at school.

 Possessing the symptoms of ADHD shouldn’t be misconstrued as having Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.  To complicate matters more, the symptoms of ADHD can be present in over thirty other disorders.  They range from problems with the sensory systems, mental illness, or scholastic, psychosocial, and medical issues.

Dr. Haber refers to these as “ADHD Imitators.”  Here’s a list of 10 possible imitators of ADHD:

  • Hearing and vision problems
  • Learning disabilities
  • Dysgraphia or difficulties with writing
  • Mental retardation
  • Personality conflicts, either with a teacher or other students
  • Depression
  • Childhood psychosis
  • Oppositional defiant disorder
  • Tourette’s syndrome
  • Thyroid disorders
