Hello to All!!!
My son is 8 years old he was diagnosed with ADHD almost 2 years ago, this has been so hard for hubby and I, we love him so much!he is very hard to deal with;[
I miss my child, everything changed,,,, I cant even see baby pics without getting emotional
anybody has similar feelings?
My son is almost 9... He was officially diagnosed just a few days ago. I can relate to your feelings as far as your baby changing. My son struggles more and more the older he gets and he will say th9ngs like "I'm just not smart like the other kids" or "I'm always to slow" and it just kills me! I hate that he is noticing that things are harder for him. I have that he feels lost. I want to help him so bad! I'm sorry you're hurting so much and that your son is as well. When I get frustrated with him I just try to remind myself that he is a million times more frustrated than I am. I can't imagine feeling what they feel. It is heartbreaking.
Thanks reply..
Yes their self esteem is so low,
He also gets very annoyed by the situation,,
But I constantly tell him how smart he is ..
Now I'm just focusing on getting him through 3rd grade ,and dealing day by day..
I am crying just reading this. I am so overwhelmed by all of it that sometimes I just want to run away. My son was always doing everything "too much", but never was diagnosed. He is in 7 th grade now and last September we got him diagnosed. He was on Ritalin for couple montha , but it syopped working. Yesterday we tried Adderral , but I don't think it is going to work. I am tired. Just listening to what he is saying and watching his behavior , makes me cry... School is a nightmare.
Good luck to you and your son. It IS heartbreaking.
Aniusia... I'm terribly sorry you two are struggling! I am lucky because so far my son still likes school. I am dreading the day that it becomes an issue. I have been resistant to admit thst he has ADD but I am realizingthst he needs help and it's better to do it now before he starts rebelling. I'm so sorry you didn't have more support to help your son. I hope you find something soon. It really is so difficult to see your baby so frustrated, discouraged and angry and the hardest part is feeling so helpless. 
Yes. My 6 year old has it. It’s so hard to deal with. I understand!!!!
My son is 6 and I empathize with you. I cry a lot. I wish this wasn’t happening. I feel guilty. To top it off my husband still continues to think it’s a phase and he will grow out of it. So I suffer alone.
Sorry,it's hard...
My husband understands there is a problem but he is so anti medicine,he does not believe it could help...
We don't agree on all,but we do what's best together...
