[quote=Anonymous]I'm just posting because I am feeling down. We planned a family vacation with another family and it has been tough. We are trying our DC with ADHD/ASD on a new med for his ADHD and, when medicated, it's going pretty well. But in the mornings before it kicks in and in the evening when it wears off, he gets more rigid and it comes off as disrespect. It's challenging with just us but doable. With another family, there's an embarrassment component that makes it feel so much worse. And they have an ADHD/ASD kid that seems like such a sweetheart, inattentive and a little introverted compared to my DC who is a verbally impulsive extrovert but unable to read social cues to see how obnoxious they are coming off. Just feeling exhausted rather than refreshed on this vacation.[/quote]
