Well today I have the prescription arrive for the med's for my son.

I am feeling very apprehensive on him starting them, what is it going to do to my wee boy?

Are the changes in him going to be good or bad?, Are there going to be any side affects?, Is this going to change him in a way I won't like?, Am I doing the right thing and what is best for him?

Questions Questions, I am feeling scared, worried .

This is my child , my little boy.......

This is huge and I still am so unsure.

Is this all normal, is this going to get easier, .

As a mum I think we are always faced with a hell of a lot from our children, I say If you are not ready to experience true heartache you are not ready to to be a parent, who knew I would be facing this and how very overwhelming it is.

My heart is aching because this is my child.

    Me and my husband have decided to wait to start the meds until the weekend so we are there for him and can see how it goes, we don't want to give him his first ever meds and send him on his way to school.
    Your support is great already thank you, just to be able to talk, and u listen maybe answer my questions, share what your've been through, if you have been there etc just having the contact is wonderful

    Its great that you are going to start your son on his meds over the weekend when you are there to see how it goes. Dont expect to see a drastic change overnight though as it does take a while for the meds to begin to work effectively. Keep us posted on how things go. I am sure we all went through the stage of are we doing the right thing, and is this the best thing we can do for them, so you are not alone there.

    Everything you are feeling is definitely normal, as for getting easier you will be the only one to answer that as each child is different. You are also right about experiencing true heartache as part of being a parent, the only thing I can say on my part about that is that without having put my daughter on meds our whole family life would be upside down. It is not quite the right side up and probably never will fully be there but we are definitely heading in that direction.
