Ingabe Izinkinga Zokulala Zingakanani Izimpawu ze-ADHD?

Eminyakeni edlule, ngemuva kokunikeza isethulo nge-ADHD eqenjini lochwepheshe bezokunakekelwa kwezempilo, ilungu lezethameli lafuna ukuphawula. “Uyazi ukuthi i-ADHD ngabantu nje abangalali kahle,” kusho yena. Ngimtshele ngaleso sikhathi ukuthi ukulala kabi kungenza izinto zibe zimbi kakhulu kepha cha, empeleni bengingakuzwanga lokho, futhi ngingajabula ukubona ucwaningo oluphakamisa lokhu.

Angikaze ngizwe kuye, kepha ngaphezulu kweminyaka eyishumi kamuva ngathola lolu cwaningo lwamuva oluzame ukulungisa lezi zinkinga ngokwenza imisebenzi yokunaka ukuqonda kanye nama-EEG phakathi kweqembu labantu abadala abangama-81 abatholakala bene-ADHD nezilawuli ezingama-30.

Izihloko zilethwe ebhodini futhi zanikezwa imisebenzi eminingi yokunakekelwa kwekhompyutha ngenkathi ababukeli belinganisela izinga labo lokulala. Baphinde bagcwalisa izikali zokulinganisa maqondana nezimpawu zabo ze-ADHD futhi bathola ukuhlolwa kwe-EEG, njengoba umsebenzi owedlule ukhombisile ukuthi ukwehla kwegagasi kuma-lobes angaphambili kungahlotshaniswa ne-EEG nobuthongo.

Ukuqhathaniswa okuningi kocwaningo kwenziwa phakathi kwe-ADHD neqembu lokulawula kepha kokunye ukuhlaziywa, ababhali baphinde bathuthukisa ababambiqhaza baba ngamaqembu ahlukene ama-3: Izihloko nezilawuli ze-ADHD ezilinganiswe njengalele kancane ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa (iqembu elilele) ; Izihloko ze-ADHD ezazingalali; nokulawula izifundo ezazingalali.

Sekukonke, ababhali bathola ukuthi abantu abadala abaningi abane-ADHD abalalanga kahle futhi babalwa njengabalala ngaphezu kwezilawuli ngesikhathi semisebenzi yokunaka. Mhlawumbe okubaluleke kakhulu, ubudlelwane obuphakathi kokulala nokusebenza kwengqondo okuntekenteke kwahlala kubalulekile ngisho nangemva kokulawulwa kwamazinga ezimpawu ze-ADHD. Ngamanye amagama, ezinye zezinkinga zabo zokunaka ezibonakala kule misebenzi zibonakala zihlobene nokulala kwabo hhayi inkinga yokuhlushwa kwangaphakathi. Ngokuthakazelisayo, noma kunjalo, ukuphambuka okukhulu kwe-EEG okufana ne-lobe yangaphambili "ukunciphisa" kwatholakala ukuthi kuhlobene kakhulu nesimo se-ADHD, yize kukhombisa nokuhlangana okuthile nobuthongo.

Ababhali baphethe ngokuthi ukusilela okuningi kwengqondo okuhlobene ngqo ne-ADHD kungenzeka kubangelwe ukulala emsebenzini. Babhala ukuthi “ukulala kwasemini kunendima enkulu ekusebenzeni kwengqondo yabantu abadala abane-ADHD.”

Ucwaningo lunemiphumela ethile ebalulekile. Ngenkathi abelaphi kade bazi ukuthi izinkinga zokulala zivame kakhulu kulabo okutholakala ukuthi bane-ADHD, izinga lapho lezi zinkinga zibhekene nezinkinga zokunaka ngokuvamile azibongwa. Le mininingwane iphakamisa ukuthi uma singasiza abantu abane-ADHD "nje" ukulala kangcono, izimpawu zabo zingathuthuka.

Kepha lokho kwesinye isikhathi kulula ukusho kunokukwenza. Emtholampilo wezifo zengqondo wezingane nentsha lapho ngisebenza khona, sizama ukuqaphela yonke imithi, kubandakanya naleyo ye-ADHD. Uma sizwa ngezinkinga zokulala (futhi sivame ukwenza kusuka kubazali okuqondakalayo ukuthi bangakhungatheka ngabo), siyazama ukubhekana nazo, futhi lezi zikhangiso zesifundo zisekela leyo ndlela. Kwesinye isikhathi, kufaka phakathi ukwenza izincomo mayelana nokuthi izingane zivocavoce umzimba noma zingadlali imidlalo yevidiyo kuze kube sebusuku. Kwesinye isikhathi, kufaka phakathi ukufundisa imindeni ngenhlanzeko yokulala - imikhuba engakhuthaza ukulala isikhathi eside nokuthula ngokwengeziwe. Kepha ukulala kaningi kuhlala kunzima ukulungisa bese umbuzo uba ukuthi ungayisebenzisi yini imithi yokulala, engaba nemiphumela emibi njengemithi ye-ADHD. Noma kunjalo, lolu cwaningo lusikhumbuza odokotela ukuthi bangazinaki izinkinga zokulala phakathi kwalabo abalwela ukulawula ukunakwa kwabo.

Kubalulekile futhi ukusho ukuthi lolu cwaningo luthini akunjalo yisho, okuwukuthi wonke umqondo we-ADHD ungaboshelwa ebuthongweni. Iningi lezifundo zalolu cwaningo bezingenazo izinkinga ezinkulu zokulala futhi bezingahlukaniswa ngokuthi “ziyalala” lapho zibhekwa. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuhlolwa kwe-EEG kukhombisile ukuthi amanye amaphethini anciphayo abonisa kakhulu ukuthi unesifo se-ADHD kunokuncishwa ubuthongo, okutholwe ababhali ababengakulindelanga. Ngempela, abacwaningi banikele ngezigaba eziningana ekuthini kungenzeka ukuthi imvelaphi yezimpawu zabathile ze-ADHD ingavela ekutholakaleni komoya-mpilo ngaphambi noma ngemuva kokuzalwa. Lokhu kungasiza ukuxhuma amachashazi phakathi kocwaningo lwangaphambilini oluxhume i-ADHD ngesisindo sokuzalwa esiphansi nokubhema komama ngesikhathi sokukhulelwa.

Ukubuyela ekuphawuleni enkulumweni yami eminyakeni eyedlule, owayengibuza imibuzo wayenalo iphuzu, futhi akufanele silulaze iqhaza elingalethwa ubuthongo obubi ekwenzeni abantu asebevele balwela ukuhlala bagxile kakhulu. Ngasikhathi sinye, siyabona futhi ukuthi ukuxoshwa ngokweqile kwe-ADHD kufinyeleleka kanjani kusaphenywa.
