[quote=Anonymous]On the athletic performance part, my DD found that her focus in games was much better on ADHD meds. Our doc said that some kids prefer the more raw energy feeling of no meds for games. I'm sure it depends on the sport and on your DC's presentation. In our case, DD was much better able to follow the game/strategy/anticipate plays with meds. For practices, I can tell you for sure that the coaches could see a difference with meds/without (even though they didn't realize why). It was a little tricky to figure out after school booster doses when there was a later game/practice because you don't want them to take it too late or it can affect sleep.[/quote]
