It has to get easier
Today was tough my 7 year old who currently takes concerta. It is like he just don't get it. His defiance is out od control the school thinks he is incompetent. When I know my son is bright and taking things from him no longer works. Out of options.

Anyone with ME taken ADHD Meds?
The Adult ADHD Consultant has put me on Matoride
XL
(same as
Concerta
XL
, etc: it’s a slow-release Ritalin), and I seem to be able to still have my daytime sleeps on it - which is a relief although the sleeps are not as restful as previously.

Anxiety meds
So i need advice my therapist suggests I give medications a try again..i hate meds because they arent natural and could potentially harm your body in the long run! Now I used to be on a ton of meds when I was younger and felt like a LAB RAT because id try the newest crap each time something came out

Lying or not?
Last night was one of those nights and I would love others' opinions. Long story short -- my 14 year old started high school this year after being in a Montessori school her whole life. She has ADHD and an anxiety diagnosis and takes Concerta in the morning with a booster in the evening to help with

New to the diagnosis
Hello, My soon to be 7yo son just started low dose Concerta for ADHD. We have been dealing with his anxiety for quite some time. I am glad there is a community to discuss our travels.

Frustrated and Worried Mommy
My son wasn’t diagnosed at 4 with ADHD and some behavioral disorders similar to those found in Asperger syndrome. He has been on concerta for a while now and his behavior and social skills are not getting any better, they actually seem worse. Needless to say, we are worried sick and both frustrated!

Inattentive ADHD
My 8th grade son is drowning because of the inattentive ADHD. He's slowly giving up on school. We tried Ritalin, but he didn't like the way he felt and then Concerta, which he had a terrible reaction to that resulted in a trip to the ER. There are things stressing him out besides school. Counseling hasn't

ADHD meds making it difficult for my daughter to play sports
My 12 year old daughter was just diagnosed with ADHD. She started uncharacteristically acting out and her grades were all over the place. After being diagnosed the Dr has put her on concerta 56 mg. It is like night and day and she feels so much better. Unfortunately, she plays sports and her heart rate
