My story is scary, but I hope it serves as a warning. My son was diagnsoed with ADHD when he was 13 years old. I wnet al ong with the medicaiton because I really didn’t know what else to do – I mean, my doctor is the professional, right? But my son did not seem to get better. Over time, he became withdrawn, sullen, and despondent. It wasn’t until he attempted suicide did we find out that he was suffering from severe depression. I almost lost my boy – be careful about this diagnosis and about people wanting to label your child quickly.

Wow!! Glad I came across your comment. I have a son who is 6yrs. old and is very talkative and loud. We don’t have any real problems at home, other than he talks too much and can get very loud. At school his teacher has noticed that he has been very disruptive lately incomparsion to last year. She says that he is doing great academically, but is very disruptive. He gets in trouble everyday for talking out of turn or being to loud. She has asked that we take our son to the doctor for a diagnosis and to see about getting him on medication. I can see what you mean about labeling a child immediately. Even the school secretary has told me she see many signs that her son had and they get worse. She to has her son on medication. All I can say is I leave it in Gods hands and he has brought me here for a reason…
I am hoping the “3steps” is the answer I am looking for. I have been searching for years. After a brief survey given to myself, my sons’s teacher and the school guidance councilor, the school psychologist recommended he see a phsychiatrist and go on medication. My son is now currently undergoing non-invasive, safe, allergy elimination treatments for his recent diagnosis of 29 different food sensitivities….try explaining that to the principal! So many are so uniformed and our children are suffering. I feel like my spirit to find and use safe and natural ways to help my child are misinterpreted as my being in denial to him possibly getting diagnosed with add/adhd. We are hopeful to see some symptoms diminish soon as we progress. ~Michele
I am hoping this helps I am scared to put my 6 yr old on meds his father was on meds as a kid and then when he got older he became a meth user .I have read al about these drugs and the side affects and i love my son very much and i don’t want to hurt him.they have been trying to get to put him on since he was 4 yrs old.i kept hoping he would grow out of it but now i see i need to do something.i just don’t know
where to begin my doctor dosen”t talk just writes out a perscription if i want one.I wonder why doctors don’t want to go the legths to figure out what is wrong.heres a drug to help they say but they don’t tell you it might kill him or harm him for life.
I have ordered this book and I am so so excited to read it! My son is almost 11 yrs old and he has been on every type of ADHD medicine since he was 5 yrs old. It really tears me up. I feel like I am medicating my own child. We have tried counselor after counselor and nothing seems to work. My son is currently on Daytrana (the patch). He also takes 12.5 mg of Zoloft and then at night he takes Clonodine to sleep. It is absolutely NUTS! I feel that his body never has a chance to just be normal. All this medicine makes him feel different. In the evening he has so much energy….he says that his mind is racing all the time and he can’t focus. His grades are definitely showing how he is struggling. He is also having issues dealing with his peers. I love this kid so much and want him to enjoy his childhood w/o being medicated all the time. Also, he eats breakfast and then doesn’t get hungry until bedtime. This is NOT right. He only weighs 72 lbs and he is 4′ 6″.
Can anyone tell me how they introduced this program? Do you just take your child of ALL the medication and implement the program or do you keep them on the medication for a period of time?
I would appreciate any feedback!!!!!!!!!!
