Adhd

[khardy57]

My youngest son (now 27) was diagnosed with ADHD in the second grade. I've gone thru hell with him all thru school. At 19 he tried to commit suicide for the first time. He's been diagnosed as bi-polar (manic-depressive). With medication and monitoring - it's been a year since he's had any problems at all. I thank God every day for his improvement.

He still has a hard time concentrating and crowds make him very nervous. He lives with me since my husband died and it's been good for both of us. He says that his step-father's death really touched something inside him and he considers it his responsibility to "take care of his Mama". He's doing really well now, but the school years were awful! Kids can be so cruel!
