How To Treat A Kid With ADD(Attention Deficit Disorder)?

i have a stepson that is 18 yrs old and i keep finding urine in bottles in his room. He was diagnosed with add when he was a child im wandering is this gonna correct itself . I have confronted him on many occasions and doesnt even realize hes doing it anymore. Is this a psychological disorder or is it a part of his add? He keeps his urine as a trophy and hides it and never disposes of it until i find it and confront him.

Hi...this is not a clinical feature suggestive of ADD. This is an abnormal reaction and he needs psychological evaluation for it. I suggest you take him to a clinical psychologist regarding this.
