[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the people who worry about the side effects of meds- what about the side effects of not medicating? For us, the latter was much worse. [/quote] Exactly. There are indeed long term indica of not medicating. Those are the kids that were unable to handle school and ended up self medicating. For all those not medicating - kids will self medicate at some point. I can't tell you how many professionals from speech therapists to dev odds have told me how very common this is. I personally know at least 4 people from high school and 2 from college who smoked pot constantly to calm down. [/quote]
