Thank you peace
We did the whole Psychologist thing last year when this happened, and thought we had a handle on it, and I have a pretty good background in mental health, as well as good understanding of ADHD, and the quick to pull the trigger part of it, as I too have it, and have struggled to control.
We did discuss at length last night, getting his room cleaned up, brightened up organized, and of course getting back into the good sleep habits, that seem to have become an issue again.
As a 16 year old with all the stressors I had, and he has I get that life can be overwhelming, the thing that concerns me most is the fact that we were going along pretty well, no real indication of being down at the present time. I want to give him respect, but I also have no trust right now.
His PCP is actually better at talking to him, and helping him identify how to better manage his issues than the psychologist and psychiatrist were. Very similar guys. My son relates to him, and sees that even though he struggles now, he can become whatever he wants, as his Dr was brutally honest with him the first time he saw him, explained his own LD issues, and struggles.
Guess we need to step back, get on track again. Vitamins, good sleep, good study habits, good exercise. LIMITED time alone, LIMITED time on gaming.
Other thoughts, tricks, books, interventions that have worked please share.
