[quote=Anonymous]OP I understand and I am currently going working through some of the same concerns. As for me persoanlly, I was diagnosed with ADD as an adult and can look back at my childhood and see it all very clearly. Constant state of panic over losing homework every single day, desk, room everything a mess etc...I medicate myself now as an adult, not every day, but its been life changing for the better. I wonder if I had been medicated as a kid how things might have been different. I think I would have had much better grades, been a lot less anxious (which led to anger and lashing out). I think you owe it to your kid to at least try this. Its a disease in the brain and if meds help then its helping your kid. You can always go back off meds! But at least medicating will help him focus enough to begin learning some specific executive function skills.[/quote]
