❌ The 3 myths that undermine your child
These misconceptions hold too many families back. Here is what the science actually says.
✗
MYTH #1: "He's just a badly-behaved child"
This myth makes parents feel guilty and stigmatises the child.
✅THE SCIENTIFIC TRUTH:

ADHD is a neurobiological condition documented through brain imaging, genetics and brain chemistry. The dopamine and noradrenaline systems work differently. It has nothing to do with parenting.

✗
MYTH #2: "The medication is dangerous and turns children into zombies"
This myth stops children from benefiting from treatment that could help them.
✅THE SCIENTIFIC TRUTH:

ADHD medications are backed by decades of research attesting to their effectiveness and safety. They do not alter the personality but allow the brain to function better. The decision is always shared between the doctor and the family.

✗
MYTH #3: "He'll grow out of it"
This myth delays support and leaves the child to struggle.
✅THE SCIENTIFIC TRUTH:

A majority of children with ADHD (according to studies, 50 to 65%) still have symptoms in adulthood. The earlier the support begins, the better the outcomes for self-esteem, academic success and social relationships.

🔍 Quick screening

Is my child showing signs of ADHD?

This questionnaire is not a diagnostic tool. It helps you spot signs that deserve clinical attention. Only a healthcare professional can make a diagnosis.

A thoughtful person, between questions and kindness
⚠️

Important: This questionnaire draws on the clinical criteria of the DIVA-5 and the DSM-5-TR. It is in no way a substitute for a neuropsychological assessment or a medical consultation.

Question 1 / 18

Scientific sources for every module

Every statement is referenced (DSM-5-TR, research by Barkley and Greene, INSERM, HAS). No guesswork, no "miracle method". Serious content, made accessible.

📣 Pre-launch under way. The first public reviews are on their way. You'll be among the very first to discover this carefully crafted course.
❓ Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions most people ask before starting.
How long do I have access to the course? +

6 months' access after purchase. You can revisit each module as many times as you like during that period, with no subscription and no extra cost.

My child doesn't have an ADHD diagnosis yet. Is the course still relevant? +

Yes, absolutely — you don't need a diagnosis to benefit. The course helps you understand how your child works, spot and describe the signs, and put practical everyday strategies in place: it's useful whether the diagnosis is already made, in progress, or simply being considered. It also sheds light on the diagnostic journey and gives you the tools to talk with healthcare professionals.

I don't have a diagnosis myself. Is the course relevant for me? +

Yes. Many adults recognise the signs of ADHD in themselves without ever having been assessed, sometimes at the very moment their child is. The course explains how the brain works, attention, inner restlessness and impulsivity at every age, with a whole module on ADHD across the lifespan. It does not replace an assessment: if you recognise yourself, it will help you talk about it with a professional, and the adult screening questionnaire on this page is a good first step.

From what age is this course suitable? +

The content covers every stage of life (Module 11: early childhood 2-5 years, primary school 6-11 years, adolescence 12-18 years, and adulthood). Most of the strategies apply from as early as 4-5 years right through to adulthood.

Does the course replace seeing a professional? +

No. The course is psychoeducational and informative in purpose. It complements (and prepares you for) the relationship with healthcare professionals, but does not replace it. It gives you the vocabulary and understanding to be an active partner in your child's care, or your own.

How long will it take me to work through all the modules? +

About 10 hours of content in total, at your own pace. Most people finish in 4 to 6 weeks (30-60 min a week). Each module can also be followed on its own.

Is there any support if I have a question? +

Yes, you can contact the team by email at contact@ipsane.com. We reply within 48 working hours to any educational or technical question.

Can I get a refund if the course isn't right for me? +

As the course is digital content with immediate access, the right of withdrawal does not apply (article L221-28 of the French Consumer Code). That said, if there is a genuine technical problem, we will always find a solution.

Why 504€? What's behind the price. +

To put it in perspective:

  • • 1 session with a neuropsychologist in private practice: 50–120€
  • • 1 full neuropsychological assessment: 400–800€
  • • 1 good specialist book: 20–30€
  • • 1 two-hour talk: 40–80€

For 504€, you get the equivalent of 10 hours of structured content designed by two qualified neuropsychologists, with downloadable tools, animated videos and 6 months' access. Cheaper than an assessment, more interactive than a book.

What happens after the 6 months of access? +

After 6 months, you can extend your access at -50% (half the original price) for a further 6 months — for example 252 € for the full course, or 12,50 € to 32,50 € for a single module, depending on the one you choose.

And here's the good news: the downloadable resources (toolkits, PDF sheets & guides) remain yours to keep with unlimited access — once saved, they're yours, even after your online access ends.

✨ Before / After

From exhaustion to confidence

To understand is already to transform. The course gives you the tools to move from conflict to warm, supportive parenting.

Before/after: an exhausted person who regains confidence
A child who is understood and at peace

"Your child is not a problem to be solved. They are a child to be understood."
