[quote=Anonymous]DS wasn’t having difficulty academically and we did not want to try medication for many years despite meeting after meeting with teachers over behavior. We finally did when he was 11 after he requested that we please do something to help him because he always felt out of control. We tried counseling first and of course met with doctors. Lose dose meds made a huge difference in his life. He never struggled with academics but it helped him manage his behavior and navigate social situations. He could finally focus to use some of the strategies he learned in counseling. Most importantly, he didn’t want to argue with everyone all of the time. I never thought we would medicate. I was really against it. [/quote]
