Hi!

I understand what you're going through. I joined this site to connect with other moms of ADHD sons and hopefully build a support network. My son is 11 (actually, he will be in May) and it's been SO difficult for him to find friends. It breaks my heart! My family doesn't get it, so I understand what you're saying about your friend not getting it. I'm glad you reached out to people who understand what you're going through.

I know how you feel. When all you want to do is help your child and your closest family and friends don’t understand or seem to care it can feel like the loneliest place on earth. Just believe in yourself that you are capable of making the right choices for your child. It’s not easy by any means and the right choices can be far from obvious but you truly know your child best. And there are many many parents going through similar situations and they feel your pain even if you’ve never met them as cheesy as that sounds it is true.
