[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter has ADHD-I and is unmedicated right now. Insomnia is such a huge deal for her. What are the chances that we/she will be able to manage the ADHD without meds? [b]I've always heard the medication is the first line of defense[/b] and allows the behavioral treatments to be accessible to kids with ADHD. But we are afraid that medication will make her sleep issues unbearable.[/quote] That really is for ADHD-H or predominantly H. Some people with I are helped by meds, some are not. And sleep issues make everything worse, whatever the diagnosis (or NT). [/quote]
