[quote=Anonymous]My 8 yr old son is ADHD Inattentive and has been on Adderall XR 10mg for 3 months now. The meds have been life changing academically- finally finishing worksheets, not daydreaming between math problems, more present during class discussions, etc. BUT now his teacher is a bit concerned he’s just too serious and she misses his happy-go-lucky/carefree/joking personality that she isn’t seeing as much of. I saw what she meant during a parent volunteer event last week. He isn’t an emotionless zombie just crazy focused and serious about his work now. At recess he still has fun with friends I should add. So are we asking too much? Can you be both focused and a serious hard working student but also still be “carefree” and a jokester? I don’t want to try another med just to find out this is as good as it gets. [/quote]
