[quote=Anonymous]Meds are hit and miss. Our child in hs never found one that effective. And it seemed like they all killed their appetite to scary weight loss levels that we stopped several after a few weeks. I like the coffee idea. Our child though is 2e; and while 9th was extremely difficult/homebound due to a variety of mental health reasons eventually kids with just adhd find ways to to compensate as they get older. 2e kids typically implode around 8th grade or so when their disability catches up With their high iq that let them get by. I know it is hard now, but do not underestimate the young brain’s ability to re-wire itself with some therapy and professional help. Drugs do work, just not for everyone. Good luck [/quote]
