      Thank you for replying to my post! I get good grades in school but its only because my homework is 100 since its all effort grades which means if i do it (even the least amount possible) i get a 100. I can never focus in class though! i daydream like crazy! But thank you for posting!

    • Close Migraine Headaches

      My third son, David (16) suffers from Abdominal Migraine Syndrome. We have never found an effective treatment. If he does not get help or "outgrow" the syndrome, he will be disabled by it.

      Treatments

      Acupuncture Not Working
      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Somewhat Helpful
      Fioricet Not Working
      Imitrex Not Working
      Inderal Not Working
    • Close ADHD / ADD

      I have suffered with ADD my whole life, but it wasn't until I was in my 30's that I was formally diagnosed. I first found out about ADD in college in one of my Child Education courses. When I read the list of symptoms, I broke out sobbing violently. It was such a picture of my childhood and all of the frustrations that I experienced. I did not seek treatment until I was a mom of four kids and trying to keep my head on straight with keeping the home and childrearing chores done.

      Treatments

      Cylert Not Working
      Yuck! Gave me a totally flat affect. It "worked" but at the expense of my personality.
      Dexedrine Not Working
      Research Working / Worked
      Ritalin Not Working
      I was too "jumpy"
      Prozac Working / Worked
      The perfect drug for me. I have absolutely no side effects but can concentrate through a task. 20mg daily
