[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op if you want everyone in your family walking around in a medicated [b]stupor[/b] , I'm sure you can find a doctor to convince your husband to give it a try I'm with your MIL. [/quote] Let's look at that word, shall we? stupor: 1.a state of near-unconsciousness or insensibility: Stupor is the lack of critical cognitive function and a level of consciousness wherein a sufferer is almost entirely unresponsive You must never have experienced ADHD. (or perhaps you have it and you just don't know it). People with ADHD are in a fog. The medication helps to clear that fog. Medicated stupor is an oxymoron when it comes to ADHD. I have a friend who won't medicate her kid because she said that when her nephew's medication wears out, he's like a zombie. Right, he's like a zombie WITHOUT medication and that drastic change of medicated (functional) vs. unmedicated (zombie) is what makes you think you shouldn't do it? [/quote]
