My son has severe ADHD and has since he was 4. I know it is controversial treated a four yeAr old but our therapist, pediatrician and psychiatrists felt I had little choice in hopes to keep him safe.
While he is doing okay in school due to meds, he suffers considerably socially. No one seems to want to play with him.
He is sweet and kind but has tendency to go into rooms he does belong. Older siblings for example. I keep close eye on him to see what could be happening but can’t identify the source of the problem.
Desperately seeking hope that this is a phase he will put grow and that ADHD chichdren have good chances to become happy and productive members of society.
Did I mention he has a lot of problems sleeping even with cloudiness - still gets many nightmares and constantly ends up in my bed. He is between 7 and 10.
Any ideas welcome
Savingjake- Welcome to the group, you have so much to share with us about your journey.
In school do you have an IEP with strict guidelines? His lack of being able to relate to and with peers will impact his ability to do group work, therefore it impacts his learning and IEP goals should be written to address this then the school can work on this with him by role playing.
I believe it is phase and as he matures it will get better.
It really takes a team and the school has to really watch him.
Best of luck!
