One of the worse feelings of my entire life, was when the medicine that we gave my son for his ADHD did not work. Helpless. Scared. Numb. All feelings that I went through in a very short amount of time.

We made a change to one of the medications that my son was taking and he had a severe reaction. Insomnia. Agitation. Irritation. You name it, he had it.

So what do you do when the medicine did not work? I stopped it. I refused to see my son suffer one more day with it. I did what I thought was best.

We have changed his medications again and this time, it seems to be working a little better thus far. But, we are waiting to see over the course of the next several weeks, if he has the right dosage for school, which starts in a few weeks.
