Is it like ADD?

There's a kid at school that just got put on Adderall....oh what a wonderful drug! Don't know if it is an adult drug...maybe ask your t.

Most kids (he's in 4th grade) hate takin their meds...he calls them his "smart pills". It lets him simmer down and function. He's a different kid.

I guess I would get it checked out and diagnosed if it is not already. Then you could maybe find a med that would help.

I agree with place - talking with a Dr. would be the best. Yes there are meds out there for ADD if that is what it is. Check with your Dr.

My daughter takes stattera for her ADD. It works quite well for her. They make it for both children and adults. Talk to your Dr. They will guide you in the right direction. Take care.
