[quote=Anonymous]You only hear the negative stories because when it works, people don’t need to talk about it - they just go on with life. Not everyone has this experience but I have two ADHD kids. For one, meds were transformational. She went from overwhelmed, confused, anxious, impulsive to a happy kid who could keep up in school, but still the funny, spontaneous personality we knew was in there. For the other, less dramatic results but they have been one of several tools that helps her from interrupting, leaving the classroom, forgetting all her everything, now able to stay on task. She still needs EF coaching, but none of that worked before meds. If all the professionals you are working with are recommending them, I would trust their judgement over my own. [/quote]
