It gets easier

Hello, my name is Simon. I had ADHD as a child, and worse I wasted ten years of my life trying to prove them wrong.

The worst part is ....I finally listened and took the meds (Regardless or people's opinions, Xenidate works IN MY CASE) I always imagined people being pleased about being right, but they were only sad I lost time. I function now, I have a degree and PhD.

It's not that I am saying you must medicate kids with Stimulant drugs. But had that happened for me, the outcome would have been far better than denial.

Many new and exciting therapies now offer greater hope without the side effects.

I wish each and everyone of you all the best love in the world and luck too. I especially wish that for your kids. When it comes to your kids your all experts in your field, don't doubt it😊😊
