Effective Support

I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult. Even though I have been adjusting while navigating through life struggles I try to continue improving.

I believe my 26 year old Son will soon also be diagnosed with ADHD. My aim is to help him in an effective way to help him be successful. He went away to college for 5 years but was not able to graduate. I want to do my best in supporting him ffectively.

Thank you. Happy Day!

Stay strong, and keep us posted on this “journey” with your son. Good luck to you both!

I have known other adults who suddenly realize what their problem is and get on medication and feel more stable than they ever did in their life.

There is a certain percentage of adults who have to deal with ADHD all their life. Good luck on helping your son accept who he is.
