[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 593240, member: 15793"] I was the same about medications for my daughter. I'll admit, however, that mine is much harder to handle than J, though. What you have, even if you try it, might be the right medication for J. It might not, and if it's not, it's not the end of the world, either, as there are non-stimulant options out there, too. And you can choose not to try it, too. There are still other options out there that you haven't tried yet - gluten-free diets, magnesium supplements, allergy testing (as some allergies can contribute to ADHD behavior as well, and dealing with those allergies might help the behavior better than a stimulant medication). You're not out of options yet should you choose not to try it, and there's nothing wrong with feeling hesitant to try it. I tried EVERYTHING before I gave up and went with medications as a last resort. You're his mom and want what is best for[I] him[/I], not what is best for those around him. [/QUOTE]
