Attention Deficit is a limiting dysfunction
of the Reticular Activating System, the
center of consciousness that coordinates
learning and memory, and which normally
supplies the appropriate neural
connections necessary for smooth
information processing and clear, non-
stressful attention. When genetic
predisposition dictates a pattern of
Thalamic under-arousal concomitant with
Limbic overrides; and/or when neural
building materials are lacking during fetal
development and beyond, demand for
appropriate connectivity cannot easily be
fulfilled, interfering with the efficient
processing of information, and frustrating
the AD individual.
In other words, neural “software” is
malfunctioning and inhibiting proper
channeling of incoming information within
the brain’s feedback loops resulting in
inattention to certain data and over-
attention to others.

And, neural "hardware" remains in limited
production (there's not enough of it), and
supply cannot keep up with the demand
(increasing stimulus or "traffic") for new
neural connections within the Central
Nervous System (CNS). Outcome:
Demands for new learning, memory, and
the management, routing and processing
of information cannot be satisfied. The
insufficient "connections" result in existing
neural pathways becoming repeatedly
overworked and over stressed. This often
leads to complete gridlock or shutdown
so that nothing gets processed at all,
generating frustration, bewilderment and
behavioral problems in the Attention
Deficit individual. The net result of these
two things (“software” and “hardware”
inefficiencies) is the brain’s production of
high Theta and/or Alpha brain waves and
low Beta brain waves, which are
characteristic of early sleep patterns and
inappropriate to a situation requiring
attentiveness.
