[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 412609"] A bit off-topic, but FWIW I don't read it as Malika being against medications, she just wants to pursue non-medication avenues first for her son. I did the same when it came to Kiddo, tried to rule out physical causes, change of diet, talk therapy, etc. medications were a last resort for us, too, because the only ADHD (her first diagnosis) medications I knew of were Aderall and the like, and with addiction in the family on both sides, I didn't want her on anything she could possibly get addicted to. My first question back when I put on my first medication (Zoloft) was a question of if it was addictive like Prozac, and if so, I didn't want it. Anywho.... carry on. [/QUOTE]
