My son is going to be 20, he's been diagnosised with ADHD at the age of 5, and congenital Nystagmus (horizontal eye movement). So both of those give the effect that every thing is moving very fast. I've done everything I can't very early on, as far as vision therapy, parent/teacher meeting, 504/IEP, drug monitoring. Now he doesn't like taking a pill and he can't told a job. He argues with everyone and everyone is wrong all the time. We did go through this in school and barely got him graduated. Thank goodness he had great teachers to work with him. I don't know what else to do to make him understand that he needs it. His whole attitude changes when he focuses when he's on it.

You could show him the good difference in him when he does and doesn't take his medication and show him that it has a good impact on his life.❤
