My daughter is being treated for ADHD and is on concerta. We notice a difference when she is not on it, but I have heard so many success stories about children who have been put on medicine and make unbelievable strides. My daughter did kindergarten twice and she is still a year behind. She is 10 and is in the 4th grade. She has a hard time making friends and sometimes seem depressed. I just wish I knew for sure if it was ADHD or something else. ↓

Many times it's a combination of things...has your doctor also tested for anxiety or depression? Could there be anything else like dyslexia going on or hearing/vision problems? ↑
