[quote=Anonymous]We are two ADHD parents with an ADHD kid. Neither of us had ever been medicated until recently when my spouse was in a parent-child ADHD research study. Finding a pharmacy with meds in stock and getting prescriptions called in on the right day and then getting across town to pick up the medication each month was incredibly stressful (perhaps this is easier for people who don't have ADHD?). While on meds, my spouse was on a mental rollercoaster with amazing focus on medication days and zero focus on breaks. We are hoping to teach our child our own coping strategies to at least make it through elementary school without being on a rollercoaster like that.[/quote]
