Anyone here with kids that have ADHD
Do you have a child that is adhd? My 5 year old was diagnose with it 3 days ago they gave him 7.5 Mg's of adderall well yesterday morning at 8:30Am I gave it to him, At 9:11AM he comes to me tells me he wants his heart to stop beeping ( "beating he was trying to say" ) It was beating very fast and heard, and that his head hurt along with his tummy. I hugged him and tole him to go play games and I sat beside him and watched him..
Well a hour went by he was getting worse started itching ( " no hives") and was scared to come out of his room... I offered him ice cream, Candy, cereal all 3 his fav things that he would just stop everything he was doing to get them.. he said NO he did not want to leave! That went on for 4 hours Finlay got him to go to my moms and play some AOL games he got so upset started crying on the games he has beating the day before slamming his fist down saying he wanted to kill these fish OH and he was a zombie most of the day..
well at around 520PM he crashed and was throwing fits of rage screaming everything then all of a sudden at 6pm he was back to his so called normal self.. At 4:00PM I called the doc, they said the same thing they would always say, don't give him anymore and bring him in at 10:30am today, well at 9:30am I had a conference with IEP( "its a case study with his teachers and the schools shrink") they are holding off on doing anything till we get the right meds for him, but I'M TO COME TO SCHOOL everyday starting Monday( " Provided this hurricane don't fuck us up") at 11:20am till around 1:00PM and sit with him at lunch and in a group in his class ARGH#$% so went to the doc's they gave him 18mgs of strattera His normal doc wasn't there so we had to see this idiot doc!
First thing out of his mouth was FIRST WE DON'T OPEN THE BLINDS and had a attitude from hell! I go over what me and his doc did day before yesterday and he said my sons insurance will only pay for the adderall so he gives me these samples of strattars.. GOD DAMN what a week I've lost 2 days of work cause of this shit and I feel its going to get worse before it gets better!
Soooooo first, sorry for long story just doing a lot of venting since my mom has a severe headache I cant go talk to her and their mother is too stupid to understand whats going on...
Now my question is since you have a child or children that are adhd what is the best way to go on this? Should I cont trying to drug my son up? Or should I take him out of school for the rest of the year and try to work on this myself? Is there anything else that can be done that hasn't been told to me?
Now I know the school gets a ton more of money if they have kids that are mental and drugged, so I fig that is why his school is wanting him on it.. I know the doc's get money for the same thing.
If I was on welfare I would get even more money THIS IS FUCKING CRAZY I've learned all this from searching the net. I've read and read till my eyes feel like they are bleeding I'M AT MY LAST STRAW... Its going to be a late night cause I HAVE TO Get this work Ive got done.. I've had to cancel a shoot cause of this cause my son has been home all week.. YOU FUCKING THINK THEIR MOTHER COULD TRY TO HELP??? FUCK THAT C*NT
So any advice would be welcomed! Thanks again and sorry for long winded post
TOM
