I have ADHD and o used to take medicine it made me so drowsy and so out of it I would just stare at a wall and not talk not play or do anything and I always had a migraine so I would never bother to eat I would mainly just think and sleep. my mom hated that so she took me off of it and helped to guide me to behiaving with rewards and teaching me how to relieve stress and frustration a d she taught me to control myself. you don't need medicine to get better from ADHD' besides I had a family member use it and it caused permanent twitching so..yeah.

I started this job at an after school program about month ago and there's this one student who gets in trouble everyday. I tried everything: time out, sitting out during play time, making him sit out for activities and nothing works. I've even heard stories from other teachers explaining how awful his behavior was. I couldn't believe a kid was this bad. In the back of my mind I did assume ADHD but I didn't just want to make that assumption without having the facts. Today his behavior was terrible and I had to tell his mom. She then told me he had ADHD. Then I knew my assumption was right. I'm currently trying to find a way to deal with him because I'm the past I have been hard on him sometimes. I'm glad I know now so I can have self control and try to understand him

not sure where I heard this …."the symptoms of ADHD mirrors the symptoms of Anxiety" that rings so true to me. so CHECK the ENVIRONMENT in which your child lives. Also see Gabor Mate and Gordon Neufeld

well said the man in this video. i believe i have so called non hyper ADHD, and i hate it (I'm sorry for the expression :(, beeing really old and feels like a kid in side, is not fun. it's like you have to act/be on your guard all the time, and thats not fun, i have to hide my self (it's tiering and sad). and i talk so much i get tiered, but when i was a kid i didn't know how to communicate, i didn't know what to say, i was more like; oh! look! a bird!. can't finish this msg now, gotta go sleep, tiered, but i will nor comeback and finishing it, I'm tiered of my self lol.

Hello, my name is Asa Hollingsworth, and I am a freshman at NC State University. I am currently in an English101 course where we must conduct a field study on a topic of our choosing. My topic is ADHD and my survey deals with the effects of ADHD medication. This survey is only open to people 18 years or older, so many of the questions are directed at parents of children with ADHD or ADD. Specifically I am surveying about the opinions of medication, as well as thoughts on alternative therapies to medication.

i try to do all these things but my sons school can't handle him if hes not medicated. hes been kicked out of after school programs before we had his medication balanced. I'm so frustrated because i feel likehes a ticking time bomb, when hes calm and can focus hes the sweetest kindest little boy, but off meds he has so many problems.

my girl is 9 and has had high rate adhd since 6, however girls can be different to boys and instead of running up the walls shes fairly quiet but is now getting harder to parent as she now has odd symptoms, she has me and her wonderfull stepdad (make that clear hes a good kind dad) to guide her in life but her attitude is getting more colder every day-she wrote mum is evil on my mothers day card, killed her hamster because it bit her and is always expecting a yes to everything -when she sometimes gets no she hates me , next day nice again like she never said anything bad to hurt me !! yet i have always shown her love and her dad is always trying to explain things nicely ,i dont smack ever.
she acts different for the teachers like a kid whos been traumatised-let me tell u its an act ,my girl has been protected and loved from day 1. shes a chamelion, very clever in wrong ways, yet struggles so much at school that i fought 2 years to get her extra help. ive noticed that when she was little she had love in her-lots of it-always saying i love u mum, but at 6 it changed, now she never says that ever really-worse still i notice she lacks compassion, she cant seem to understand how other people feel etc. she has become emotionless-oposit of myself-i have too much emotion at times. I pray she will be ok in life but i worry all the time, because she is an only child its magnified as she cant share easily. i will always love her-guide her etc but her odd symptoms make her hatefull at times, she dileberatly puts shoes on wrong feet ! yikes its hard work at times 🙁 her biological father killed himself and so did his father so i worry all time what future holds. my partner had heart attack from the stress of daily life with her she never gave a damm yet the man has loved her and been kind to her for 2 and half years !!adhd is wrong name its far more than that-serious mental issues for sum kids. good luck anyone with higher rate adhd kids i know u need it !!

Yes, Dr. Craig, you know what you are talking. Thank you for this. A pity, you will be sanctioned by your peers if you quote studies of years ago – referring to "Controlling a Hyperkinetic Child" or more
"Reasonable parental chastisement" and "increased activity" worked well with my grandfather, my father, me and three of my daughters – all of us "Hyperkenetic" My boys born after DSM IV are not "Hyperkenetic" – they are ADHD and the treatment is different and does not work at all …. make you think….
