[quote=Anonymous]My son started on Focalin about two months ago. He's six and in the first grade. We tried many types of intervention with him, and he just couldn't complete the tasks require in the classroom despite being very bright. The Focalin has made a tremendous difference. His teacher showed us work before the meds and after, and it was unbelievable. We've seen no changes in personality or other major issues. My DH has ADHD that was never treated (despite being diagnosed as a child). He was adamant that we give my son the support that he never received, as elementary and middle school were miserable for him. I'm very happy with the decision we made, although it was difficult getting to the point where I would consider medication.[/quote]
