[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. My DC is 8. She says she doesn't mind the meds, but doesn't feel a difference on them. She has combined presentation—very spacey, day dreams a ton, has trouble focusing, very wiggly. That said, like many adhd girls, she’s not disruptive, impulsive, hyper or highly emotional. It’s more that she just can’t focus on school/worksheets/participating because she daydreams. Sounds like we should still keep experimenting. [/quote] My son has the same symptoms (daydreams, very spacy, but not impulsive or hyper). He's done well on Aderrall. It doesn't bring him to the same baseline as others, but it helps. Workarounds for the appetitive issue include big breakfasts high in protein and big dinners. [/quote]
