Our daughter has add and acts totally lost most of the time,will it ever get better?

Question

she is on med ication but it seems to be getting worse,even undr a doctors care,he says its normal but we say its worse

Answer 1

NO, it wont, I'm very sorry. Ive had ADD my whole life, on and off Med's.... one day your kid will learn how to use it for them.

Try the changing her diet thing, Personally, i feel like relaxation techniques help the most. Meditation, drawing, reading. Something to help hold my attention. Just what ever you do have Patience's. good luck!

Answer 2

try changing her diet, take out gluten and red food dye, there are a lot of theories about how food effects your personality.

Answer 3

Is it worse sense the meds ?maybe its not right for her.Is she better 8to 10 hours later if so its the wrong med

Answer 4

Put her on fish oil tablets. Omega 3 supplements often help with ADD, I read about this in "New Vital Oils" by Liz Earle, a fantastic book. Even if it doesn't help, it won't do her any harm.

Answer 5

I would have to say that the medication your child is on is not the right one for her.. ask the doctor to change her meds .. its suppose to get better when they are on meds not worse... if your doctor will not change meds and does not listen  to you.. time to get a new doctor...

Answer 6

it could be worse to you since you are around it everyday, it is really hard, but it will get better as they get older as long as they are on the medication.
