What can I do ?



This depends on what issues you’re trying to address with the medication. For many symptoms/difficulties/behaviors you may be seeing behavioral interventions can be just as effective as medication. Try to do some more research on different behavioral interventions to find something he would be on board with and go from there. You can search for a BCBA to consult with in your area www.bacb.com

Guess that’ll never be the AdHD or ASD spouse then.
