Hi lisa if you need help message me back.

hi Lisa :o) I've been in your shoes!! The only advice I can give you is keep at it....our kiddies are worth it...if you want to talk...send me a msg!!
Oh, and biggie here...take care of you too, if not then you don't have any reserves to help your kiddies with!! :o)

You might feel that I am too young to offer advice, but Ill offer it to you anyway, incase it helps. You never know. I have undignosed ADHD, my mum is a GP and got me tested which came back positive but decided not to declare that I had ADHD. I did find that in some circumstances (with people who knew I had ADHD) I was able to use it as an excuse. If you have any questions feel free to ask. x.x.x

I have accepted alot of help for my grandsons, they have their meds, their counsler, shrink,behavioral after school program and so forth. When getting lots of help, the thing to remember is to make sure everyone talks to each other. In 3 years I have seen a major improvent in my 2 grandsons. This also means learning to deal with them at home, geting help in dealing with their education and so forth.
Good luck!

I would read what you can.
Dr Ross Greene's The Explosive Child is a good one as well as Delivered from distraction (Author???)Start a Behaivior Modification system in your house right away Google The Marble theory for ADHD. We use a coin reward system that works great for us. There are many things you can do.

1. Don't trust doctors: they could care less about you and your family
2. Discipline WORKS
3. No drugs... I'm studying psychopharmacology @ school- you'd be amazed what's in these pills
4. Read books... I have two from one of my professors I recomend (they're on my profile)
5. Don't get discouraged: "ADD" could just mean your daughter is bored to death and "ADHD" could just mean your son is hyper... like me... be glad they have personalities, unlike some boring people in this world
