[quote=Anonymous]Everything I've read says medication and therapy together has the best outcome. I started my son on meds right away, during the school year. I took him off this summer. It's only my opinion, but being on the meds seems to calm his brain down enough that he is able to learn and maintain certain habits that he needs, particularly organizational habits. I've tried to teach some new habits/coping skills this summer, and he doesn't grasp them at all. I link that to being off the meds for the summer. I'm starting him back on the meds this week, before school starts. [/quote]
