Two ADHD children

[LilRedRiding]

Hi, im Renee and i just joined. I have two ADHD children that are 22 months apart. My two have tried so many of the meds and feel that after 3 months theh dont work. Even times they take the meds with breakfest at 730 and at 830 they are worse. I make sure i didnt give a sugar pill. Even though i know its their meds i just feel it is a sugar pill. My daughter has other health issues as well and i feel i have hit a dead end.

Its sad to say this but they are good and act kind of normal when they are apart. But cant seperate them when at times i wish it could happen.

I have health issues and its so hard for me to deal with them for over 3 hours. I start getting headachs, stomach aches and then i feel like im going to get sick and run to the bathroom. I feel at times i need to run away but that wont help them. I lost alot of weight trying to deal with them alone. The place they go for therapy just plays with them ad not help. Plus they have them seperated.

Please help me... i feel like one day ill end up in the hospital and they cant lose their mom. But what else can i do?

Yes when its dark my daughter thonk its midnight. When her meds wear off she is psychotic and i feel stressed out. I love her to death but at times i feel lost.

Yes it’s very stressful An it’s almost like it’s nothing i can do to give me any calm I’ve stopped yelling realizing that it does nothing for the ADHD child i have to keep reminding myself she can’t help it An is not on purpose
