| Many of them do not want to take the meds. Any kind of meds, and most us like our kids the way they are. However, the meds often help mitigate some of the symptoms that make our kids unacceptable in many situations, and unable to complete their work, stay organized and to plan out things. It is a juggling act. Unfortunately, the choice often comes down to taking the meds and getting through college or other course of study, or not taking them and floundering until they can get it together which is usually years. I see the same thing with mood disorder meds as well. |
