[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 15 year old started ADHD meds in 2nd grade, and they were life changing.  He was basically unable to sit through class and starting to suffer a lot of anxiety and depression in school.  As he's matured, the meds have mattered less.  At this point as a high school sophomore taking lots of AP classes and no longer taking meds.[/quote]
This tells me your son didn't have adhd. It was just immaturity.  Seems like you drugged him just to make life easier. I get it, but it doesn't seem like he has adhd.  I have a 12 yr old DS, and he was pretty challenging at 7, too.  But, he doesn't have adhd. He was just a boy full of energy and lots of things going around his head, like most 7 yr olds.[/quote]

And let's not forget all those food colorings, additives, high fructose corn syrup, pro essed oil, etc. etc. are getting this generation's kids super hyper. Not to mention thr constant exposure to screens, lights, games, movies, TV. Who wouldn"t be hyper after all that good food and entertainment 24×7?[/quote]

NP +1. It makes me so angry when I see all these kids with behavioral problems and their parents give them plastic chemical 'food' for lunch/snack. My boys would be bouncing off the walls if I gave them that crap, too.

Parents very rarely seem to consider diet, enzymes, nutrition. I guess it's easier for them to blame something else and then medicate them. It's tragic.[/quote]
