When Medication Wears Off
"My daughter takes medication around 7:30am. Starting around 4pm, we notice increasing difficulty with self-control, emotions, etc. This continues until bed." INSIGHT OR IDEAS?
How Focused Is Your Hyperfocus?
"Does anyone else get so wrapped up that you don’t eat or drink anything ALL day? This happens to me more often than I’d like to admit." ANYONE ELSE?
Is There a Best Med for Hyperactivity?
"My son has been taking the same medication for about six years. While it helps him with focusing, he still experiences the negative effects of his hyperactivity. Do any medications specifically help with this?" SEEKING INPUT
No, You DON'T Understand.
"I get so sick of people (especially my mother) saying they understand how I feel. Unless you, too, have emotional disregulation, you have no clue how much it hurts." SO EMOTIONAL
Feeling the Heartbreak of My Diagnosis
"I am finally past my darkest stage, when I just wanted to cry and stay in bed, but I still feel overwhelmed and emotional. I feel like I'm wasting my brain and capacity on a job I don’t like, but need, but also don't feel brave enough to change." ANY ADVICE?
Where Are My Positive ADHD Traits?
"I often read that people with ADHD are creative, energetic, spontaneous, risk takers, etc. Granted, this could be my low self-esteem talking, but I don't fit into any of those categories." IN SEARCH OF MY GIFTS

Many professionals insist that an accurate ADHD diagnosis requires a full battery of neuropsychological testing, brain imaging, and computerized tests to measure attention. Dr. Thomas Brown disagrees. Families can save money, he says, by knowing which tests are valuable in assessing symptoms of ADHD, and which aren’t.
