Dazey, I agree with your thoughts on medicine. (I respect others' right to use it, blah blah blah...) But, it makes sense to me. I've also seen people take prozac from their physician but never see a therapist to work through the root of their problem. So, this is going to be my new path...finding ways to boost his working memory, processing speed and executive function.
Look what I found last night! It's a video called "Cogmed". $1500 folks. But, even CHADD (the AD/HD authority) wrote up an article about how great it is.
