My 22 year old son as ADHD and he is terrific. He is fun, outgoing, well liked by everyone. He is also very creative. He did struggle somewhat in school but everything balanced out OK. He is successfully employed in a job that he loves - it is a very physical job so he is always on the move and HAPPY!!!!He has such talent - he can put anything together - it's amazing.

So please take heart, ADHD is well known and accepted.

From my experience, the schools helped me thru out to help manage his symptoms.

Tips the doctors gave me
The doctors told me that getting him out to "green" areas where he can run and blow off steam was important - and it seemed to help alot.
They also suggested that I "rock" him - they said the motion comforted him so I did that. Limiting TV helped alot.

Please take heart... it will be fine...
