My son was diagnosed many years ago with ADHD. For the last couple of years we've gone to the same doctor and everything has been fine. October my son's Dr. quit and we were transfered to another doctor. November my son started having problems in school. Acting like his meds were not even in his system. He was off the walls. I started getting phone calls and emails from his 2nd grade teacher. Then it progressed to phone calls from the Dean. He is in the office CONSTANTLY because his work is "too hard" or so he says. However, he is brilliant. He is one of the top of his class and reads at a 4th grade level. He just doesn't like to write. Now every day when he gets into class it's a problem. This new doctor questioned his sleep routine and once I assured her that was not the case she upped his meds. Things got better but were still bad in the mornings. She upped it again. He has been great at home and I thought we were in the clear. However, I still get a call once or twice a week about how he is having meltdowns in class and is asked to leave. I ask him wahts wrong. He says he misses me. I don't know how to help him. He says school is too hard. Honestly I feel he doesn't want to try. We've tried grounding him for misbehaving in school but that doesn't seem to help. Has anybody else gone through this? I don't know how else to help him. His grades were always at O for outstanding and now they're the worst they've ever been because he isn't completing any of his work. I just don't know what else to do.
I go through this with my son on a daily basis. my son can do the work but he is bullied so much in school, and he has it in his head that he cannot trust the teachers, so he gets anxious and has to phone and hear from me ever time he is on a break and I have to reassure him that everything is ok, and that he can make it until the next time he phones, I had to phone the principle and explain everything about my son, and has meetings with there whole teem about my son and how to deal with him. and they have been trying to work with me and my son.
