My daughter just started medication for ADHD. We struggled with this decision, we really did. But her behavior, combined with her birth family's history of ADHD and mental illness, the doctor agreed that it might be able to help. She was always sweet, wanted everyone else to be her friend, very smart, extremely active, etc.We know that it may take some tries to get this whole thing right. Different medicines/doses/therapists, etc. But we got so upset when today, she was pretty violent and made cries like I've never heard out of her before. For no reason whatsoever. It broke my heart, but after comforting didn't work, she was put in time out, screeching at us. She's better now, took her maybe 15 minutes to actually calm down. And I feel like shit because I think we're the ones that caused it. So now I feel like the worst person alive because of all of it.I think I just needed to get this out, I don't really have any friends to talk to about this. Thanks for reading. via /r/Parenting http://bit.ly/2WAafAx
