[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]21:31 again. One of the ways our psychiatrist determines whether DS's meds are working is if DS can sit face to face and hold a conversation with the normal give and take. Before seeing this doctor, I did not realize the inability to hold a conversation (and not going on and on about his favorite subjects) was due to the ADHD.[/quote] When the med is not working, DS will be running around or sticking his head into the sofa cushions either not answering or giving one word answers. Completely unable to have a conversation and this is with an adult and DS is generally much better with adults. I can't imagine what it must have been like with peers before meds. Anyway, now he has a group of friends at school and he is the leader according to his teachers.[/quote] My son is exactly like this. This is what I am hoping will improve. He just can't still his body long enough to focus on anything really. [/quote]
