[quote=Anonymous]Meds changed my child’s life and mine. For the first time they could concentrate and said meaningful, organized sentences out loud which showed smarts and sensitivity. I was astonished and grateful. We still used other methods to help behavior: a rewards system (rewards for good behavior, not taking away or punishment), help with self-control, small group learning in school, an IEP, and lots of help form me and husband with school. Thank God for the meds, it got us started and helped so much so that we could actually get somewhere. Turned out fine and does not take them as an adult. Anyone who espouses diet or vitamin cures—it’s just bull. Eat healthy, but it’s not about sugar or anything else. It was obvious to me upon reflection that several of my siblings and probably my father had ADHD. It’s a type of person and type of brain. In our case, they also a have great enthusiasm, energy and optimism. It’s not all bad. [/quote]
