with the disorder. The site offers information about the recognition, diagnosis and management of the disorder, assistance with how to identify and select a healthcare professional and what to expect when meeting with a physician about ADHD. The Web site will also feature a symptom tracker to help record ADHD symptoms to be used in follow-up discussions with the healthcare professional, practical tips on how to get organized, and stay organized, and the best ways to set and evaluate goals. Additionally, a teacher discussion guide and homework planner, as well as an email reminder program -- which allows users to set up various reminders for themselves or for their children, including for medical appointments, prescriptions, and social activities -- will be available later this summer in time for the back-to-school season.

ADHDSupport.com also provides detailed information about events that may be helpful to people living with ADHD, such as the 13-city mobile screening event from Shire, known as the "RoADHD Trip," which is designed to help adults who think they may have ADHD take the first step toward recognizing the symptoms of the disorder by answering the 6-question World Health Organization adult ADHD screener. Additionally, the Web site highlights conferences this year, such as the 13th annual Attention Deficit Disorder Association (ADDA) national conference and the 20th annual Children and Adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (CHADD) international conference.

"ADHDSupport.com is a useful Web site that contains all sorts of helpful information about ADHD," said ADHD patient, Heather Jenkins. "If you have ADHD like me, or think you know someone who might, ADHDSupport.com is an excellent place to go for a helpful road map on both information about ADHD and the steps you can take to help yourself or others find out more about ADHD."
