[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know the science of it all so I will just speak to my ADHD-I son. We started meds one year ago at age 8. First adderall then switched to Ritalin family. On both meds we take weekends off, holiday breaks off and the summer off. Happy to report the days he’s not on meds he is the same as before we started meds. He can hyperfocus on Legos, robots and reading (3 favorite actitivies) for hours on end. I suggest taking more med breaks if you can. You never know what could be his his evolving personality since you started meds fairly young.[/quote]
