Hi all,
I have an 8yr old daughter, we have felt something isn’t quite right for a long time now and she has been under a paediatrician for a while now.
Two weeks ago she was diagnosed with adhd, i feel there is something but she doesn’t seem to be hyperactive all the time.
I went into school to discuss this with the senco and have spoke to her teacher and they don’t believe she has adhd.
The doctor said that she adhd but more on the lines of add. Her attention is poor, she is very easily distracted, her memory is terrible. She doesn’t recognise danger, gets very angry very easily, she doesn’t sleep and the list goes on.
Has anyone else had this.
I really feel at a loss, my eldest daughter has autism and pda and they didn’t believe her diagnosis at first either at the school.
I didn’t want a label for my child, i just wish for her to get the best support and help needed for a bright future.
Thankyou for listening and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Natalie
