When I was about 1 years old
I started walking
I was about 1 1/2 when I could run around
I was about 2 years old and I was able to open doors
And even get out of my house to run and play
I would even cross nearby major streets to go to
Corner stores
I guess I was overly active and capable of doing
Things at way faster paces than most
My mom took me to a Doctor and
I was soon diagnosed with Adhd
They gave me Ritalin for a while
Then switched Adderall
My mom kept me on till I was about 3
She then stoped giving me it because
It made me WAY to calm and I seemed
Out of it for what my mom says.
It wasnt till about 5 grade when My attention span got bad
Going into middle school was difficult and I was suprised to
Have passed 6 & 7 grade
Now that I'm in 8th grade
I really dont think I will be as lucky
Recently teacher have called my mom
Telling her about how they see me trying hard
But that I cant seem to pay attention without forgeting
What I am looking at
My mom since 6th grade has taken to to a
Psychiatrist which I just talk to
lately they prescribed me 20mg Focalin Xr
And I really dont see any improvement
I actually feel less alert and focused
But definitely feel awake
I have a teacher who knows about
What I am taking and told me her son had
The same thing
And she said he was taking focalin as well
But switched to adderall and that things went so much
Better for her son
I'm curious if I switch to adderall if it would be what I need
Now I'm just taking it for about 3 weeks now
And so far things seem to be getting worse when I'm on it
Then I go back to normal when it wares off
how/what do I say to my dr
About me switching from Focalin to Adderall after
being on focalin for only 3 weeks seeing no progress?
kidz are suppose to b active I cant believe uve been drugged sinc you wer 2 wow I have adhd or so I've been told but I dont take anything I lerned to control myself an not depend on any drugs so I think that you should try and have a little self control instead of relying on pills
I hope you know babies are SUPPOSED to walk by 1 years old, and run by about 1 1/2. it's the drugs you're taking that's fxcking you up, your "problems" aren't much different then most kids.
I actually stoped when I was 3 years old
