[quote=Anonymous]I had the same struggles. I know people say that medication does not work for all the kids. But you are not going to find out until you try. For my child, the second medication we tried was light and day. I would describe like a magic pill, thankfully the only side effect is lack of appetite. My child can now learn and enjoy school. We do supplements, eliminated artificial dies and limit sugar. Also child does vigorous exercise at least 3 days a week. We also do parent led coaching at home. All these things help my child, but only medication truly makes a difference. One more thing, as they get older I see the importance of medication for social and emotional reasons. ADHD kids already have a hard time connecting with peers, don’t make it harder for them. [/quote]
