[quote=Anonymous]YOur DD sounds a lot like mine. She received her DX at age 9 and started meds soon after, with overall great results. I am happy to report that the meds haven't changed her slightly offbeat, square peg personality -- she still loves art and creative projects, science, etc. She can still focus for long periods of time on creative projects -- in fact, she finishes more of them so gets more satisfaction out of them. The main difference is that now she feels like the smart person she truly is. She also does better socially because she's less likely to act out of impulse and get in others' space/overwhelm them. There have also been some sleep issues that we are working on -- she has always been a night owl and the meds seem to make it harder for her to get to sleep.[/quote]
