Teens dealing with ADHD find it challenging to manage their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and can sometimes get in conflict with others. Thankfully, there are coping skills that can help many teens do well in school and achieve success. This ADHD Coping Skills for Teens handout discusses the executive functions that are impaired in ADHD and provides a list of tips to manage symptoms. It's a handy resource for teens, providing support in starting tasks, remaining focused, staying calm, remembering things, and taking positive steps in their lives. Teens with ADHD who practice these coping skills during stressful times can benefit by improving their attention, focus, and emotional balance. Teens can picture turning these ADHD coping skills into a game called "Focus Challenge." In this game, they set a timer and see how well they can concentrate on a task without getting distracted. After reading the handout, they can implement what they learned into their daily lives, whether at home or in school. *This item is an instant digital download.

ADHD coping skills are techniques that help kids deal with challenges linked to attention issues. It's important to recognize and work on these skills early to improve their school experience, foster friendships, and enhance overall well-being. The ADHD Coping Strategies handout highlights how children with ADHD may struggle with tasks like planning, time management, and controlling their emotions. It also provides practical tips, presented as easy-to-follow bullets, that aim to help kids improve their organization, attention, and self-control skills. Using these coping strategies helps kids with ADHD in many ways, like paying attention, figuring out what's important, managing their energy levels, listening well, focusing on a task, and following directions carefully. When using this guide at home, parents can turn it into a fun activity by rewarding kids with stickers whenever they perform a coping skill correctly. Additionally, parents and kids can practice together and talk about how they're feeling afterward. Since children with ADHD enjoy playing games, parents may incorporate fun challenges to build these valuable coping skills. *This item is an instant digital download.
