[quote=Anonymous]We haven’t tried Straterra yet. We were very hesitant to try stimulants (or any drug) but finally broke down when our teen was begging for help with ADHD. She had to try a couple different ones but found one that works pretty well. She says it’s amazing, that she never knew “how normal people felt” and she had to expend so much energy to concentrate. She doesn’t take them on the weekends and doesn’t really like the way she feels on them (irritable), but she can’t really cope with a increased workload without it. I know it’s a tough decision but maybe try them. I Wanted you to have the perspective from someone who held off medication for over four years and doesn’t take it lightly.[/quote]
