Counseling is typically executed with a psychologist or psychiatrist. This is the point when the addict may undergo behavior therapies. These therapies can teach the addict ways and methods to cope with the addiction and its symptoms; for example, cravings, temptation to relapse, and what to do if the addict does relapse. The counseling will be more successful if it involves the addict’s friends and family as well [ (Drug Addiction, 2007)

Children who have ADD and ADHD show behavior disorders that, along with diet and medication, can be regulated by simple discipline strategies to help them from falling behind others. According to an internet article titled “ADD/ADHD Treatment Options” extracted from the document published by Health Responsibility Systems, the behavior interventions are “geared toward helping the children learn, control behavior and increase his or her self-esteem.” These behavior interventions can be done in several ways, but the most effective way is for disciplinary actions to occur when and where the behavior occurs. Some examples of behavior treatments include rewarding good behaviors by a treat of some kind and giving “time outs” for bad behavior. One way teachers can help their students with their low attention spans is by placing them in an area where they can move around freely with little or no distractions, so that they can release some of their energy, establish clear rules, and be rewarded for appropriate behavior. These behavior interventions help the student control their own behavior and increase their self-esteem which plays a huge part in reducing the signs of ADD or ADHD.
