[quote=Anonymous]My DS started medication at 9 and it took a year to get to the right dose and medication for him but it has made such a huge difference in his life. I could tell he was beginning to feel bad about himself and had been labeled a trouble maker at school. His behavior is 100% better since he started medication and he is doing much better in school. His quality of life has changed for the better. Our family life is much better. I know 5 years old seems young but if your DC is struggling in school and daily life and you have exhausted all other options, you may want to give it a try. My DS has not needed therapy in addition to the medication. He doesn't like taking medication but knows he has to take it. I never, ever forget to give him his dose because I know it will mean the difference between a productive and well behaved day to a stressful day for him and the teachers. Good luck OP but don't hesitate to help your child.[/quote]
