Another believer in meds. Son fought hard against them, but after 6 weeks he saw drastic results. And this was before “tweaking” got him to a more optimal dosage.

Of course, meds alone aren’t the answer. I recommend finding a mentor (a teacher or faculty member preferred) and devolping organizational strategies (for my son a quick & easy one was ACTUALLY using his daily planner - not just carrying it around).

DO NOT DELAY on the meds. In our area, once we had son diagnosed we realized Husband very likely is ADD too. Unfortunately, trying to find anyone to dianose & prescribe for an adult has been impossible.
