Did NOT Work!!!!!

My 17 year old child was diagnosed with ADD in 2nd grade and we have tried Adderall, Stratara, and Ritalin. None have worked. We always thought it was just him, you know, not trying and such, but about 6 months ago he got on Vyvanse, and I just to a progress report from him that that all A's and B's. I can't understand the difference, but he says it really works for him. Since he is older that helps that he can tell me what is working or not. Remember that is he 17 and can tell me what "feels right" to him or not. I am so proud of his good grades......they are the best we have ever seen!!!!! Don't give up and keep on asking your Dr. if this medicine is right for your boys. My child is not hyperactive. That may make a difference. Thanks for answering me....I just want to get the word out.

that's good. i am happy for the development of your son... that's a big leap especially with his studies. now i am enlightened and we are not giving up too. thanks for sharing this inspiring story with us!

Let's see, Adderall, Ritalin, and another one I don't remember. This is the first one that has had ANY RESULTS at all. I have been dealing with this since he was 8 years old. I will take the results I am getting now. I was just trying to give advice or hope for some other people who have the same problem

I grew up with ADHD. My mother put up with a lot of s#*% because of it lol. She actually is a member of myLot. I'll suggest her to your discussion. I'm sure shes got lots of useful information about it.
