Dear ALL
Finally made the difficult decision to try ADHD meds for my teenager who has been struggling for many years even after lots of behavioural therapy. He has the inattentive type and can't focus or manage his time/tasks at home or at school.
I would love to hear your experiences of ADHD treatments through the government health service and the process. Do you recommend the private or public route? If public, what is the length of time between seeing a doctor/psychiatrist and getting the medication approximately? Do you feel the public service served you well?
Grateful for any advice from experienced mums/dads out there.
