[quote=Anonymous]My almost 17 yr old, who has ADD, is really struggling with making himself do his homework or as he says "any responsibility he has," like meeting with teachers out of class. He is feeling worthless, like a failure, and is very upset with himself because he can't get himself not to procrastinate and do what he needs to do. I know he is super stressed about school and some about college, but I also wonder if he is depressed. I hate to put him on more medication ( already on add medication). I don't know how to help him. Right now his self esteem is super low and he says he hasn't been happy in a long time. I want him to feel better and write the papers and do the work he needs to. Any ideas?[/quote]
