Trying To Understanding ADHD

[Rayvenx3]

Hello My Name Is Rayven And I Have A Son With ADHD & Oppositional Defiant Disorder. I Have Been Dealing With This Since He Was Like 2. He Use To Bang His Head On The Walls and Have Tantrums Which I Thought Were Normal But He Explodes In Anger Now And Hits On kids At School and A Few Teachers🤦🏾‍♀️. I Got Him Evaluated On My Own Because The School Wasnt Taking It Serious. I was Getting called to the school everyday. So it effected me working and going to school. Right Now He is on Vyvanse And Clondine(To Sleep) His Apetite Is Poor When He’s On his meds. I Need Help Understanding his condition. I deal with a lot myself but i really wanna atleast get things under control.

Rayvenx3, so glad you joined this community. Through another member I recently discovered Dr. Russell Barkley, a national ADHD expert. Watch this video. “30 ideas parents should know about ADHD” youtu.be/YSfCdBBqNXY(Not working as expected?).

It is so helpful in understanding everything about ADHD.

Best of luck.
