[quote=Anonymous]OP, the low self confidence is a side effect, too — it’s a side effect of untreated ADHD. ADHD clearly runs in our family. The difference between those who got the help they needed, and internalized less shame, vs. those who didn’t — and who internalized only shame over and over and over again — is astounding. Shame gets woven so deeply into a person, and it seeps into every aspect of a life, including parts of life that ADHD alone doesn’t touch. Yes, there are sometimes side effects to medicating. But consider that these might be far less than the side effects of non-treatment. I wish you and your son the very best. [/quote]
