Hi, my son (7 years) is diagnosed ADHD without hyperactivity. From my point of view the symptoms are mild (maybe because for me its “normal”). My wife and I now have to decide wether we want to treat his symptoms with methylphenidat. My question: Can someone with medium strength adhd who gets medicated in his/her childhood write their experience in retrospective?
Thanks for reading, sorry for my English.
Very true. I should emphasize the context that everyone’s brain chemistry is different and I would not gatekeep medication for someone who needed it first. I was mostly trying to emphasize that meds without coping strategies can be problematic as well.
