It’s the people who bring you flowers in bed. It’s the souls that see beyond your disabilities and it’s the kindness I have never had. Until now, how do I accept it, how do I let it in. I am learning a new language, I’m learning how to be loved. #truelove #trauma #acestoohigh #selfie #sickandtired #hannahcrazyhawk #flowers #spoonielife #chronicillness #brainsurgery #love #trigeminalneuralgia #canyouseemenow #cfs #terminatetrigeminalneuralgia #fibromyalgia #ptsd #crohns https://www.gofundme.com/TerminateTrigeminalNeuralgia?pc=ot_co_dashboard_a&rcid=22903bca05df4ecc88326d0e175bfb0e (at Corvallis, Oregon)

How childhood trauma could be mistaken for ADHD

These children lived in households and neighborhoods where violence and relentless stress prevailed. Their parents found them hard to manage and teachers described them as disruptive or inattentive. Brown knew these behaviors as classic symptoms of ADHD, a brain disorder characterized by impulsivity, hyperactivity, and an inability to focus.

When Brown looked closely, though, she saw something else: trauma. Hyper-vigilance and dissociation, for example, could be mistaken for inattention. Impulsivity might be brought on by a stress response in overdrive.

Trauma-informed judges take gentler approach, administer problem-solving justice to stop cycle of ACEs

Three years ago, Judge Lynn Tepper of Florida’s Sixth Judicial Circuit Court in Dade City, FL, learned about the CDC-Kaiser Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study 

“With problem-solving justice and the trauma-informed delivery of services, you hopefully are addressing those underlying problems,” says Claire, who became trauma-informed through an education program with the Institute on Trauma and Trauma-Informed Care at the University of Buffalo. “You’re recognizing that you’re not dealing with an isolated situation, and unless you break that cycle, that next generation is going to have the same issues, or the parents before you are going to keep coming back.”

Learn more about how the study changed her view of the people who stand before her.
