He says the voices tell him to do bad things. He has been stealing lately. I took him off all meds and he hasn't been in counseling for a while. BIG mistake! I am taking him back to counseling tomorrow. My husband doesn't believe he doesn't know why he does the wrong thing. He is all about discipline. My son is currently grounded for a month. He has been stealing from stores. Luckily the counselor that we are going to tomorrow has an adhd son that is stealing as well so at least she will understand what I am going through. I will be getting myself on antidepressants. My life is just an exsistance. I wake up and cook and do the occasional load of laundry and load the dishes in the dishwasher. I can't function much more than that. ↓

| Antidepressants will help you to think more clearly and should give you the energy to work with your son and the counsellor. Try to stick with his meds as well. ↑ |

I feel your pain mommyofjacob, how old is your son? My son is 10 he doesnt hear voices at least not at this point as we all know everything can change in a day but my husband also is all about the disipline and says that I coddle the boy and all he needs to know is right from wrong. He thinks my son uses his ADHD to manipulate me and get out of things. Its so frustrating because sometimes I cant decifer if it is the ADHD or just plain old bad behavior. And of course if I punish him for the ADHD I feel like a terrible mother but if I dont I feel like I am teaching him to manipulate. Somedays it really does feel like a losing battle. One piece of advice, and I am sure you have heard it over and over again, find something for you in the day , anything that is just for you for an hour if you can that has nothing to do with your family,it can be hard to etch away that time but look at all we manage to fit in for our family we can do it if we put ourselves up at the top of the priority list.Sorry if I wasnt much help but wanted to let you know that there is someone out here who feels how torn your heart is right now
keep your chin up :)

| You know, I think it's a wonderful coincidence that I actually found this site. And to have found it with a parent of an ADHD son who hears voices is even more ironic!!! I have a 7 year old son, clinically diagnosed with ADHD, who says he hears voices. He tells me that he doesn't ALWAYS understand what they are saying, but when he can understand them, they tell him to do bad things. He is extremely terrified of what's going on, and I really believe that, sometimes, he doesn't have control over the things that he does. He's very impulsive, easily angered, very quick tempered, and, oh.... put the family cat in the freezer...Yes... The cat froze to death.... I am worried about him, and don't really know what to do. We have an appt with the psychiatrist next week..... ↑ |

| My daughter is 10, she has deprssion(had) Adhd, and odd, her Dr. Reed Sulik is a nationally regognized physcolgist, at the age of 3 she started stealing,it on and off for years, after she had really hit rock bottom, she was hearing voices and the voices were telling her to do all this ****she was put on an anti depreesent, and once the depression was cleared up, the voices went away. Sulik stated that when depression goes untreated, hallucanations are quite common,we still have HUGE behavior issues, as well as social but thank the lord above the voices are gone!!!! ↑ |
