그래도 조카가 좋아지고 있다하니 다행이네요 부디 완쾌되어 그동안 맘고생한거 다 잊을수있는 시간이 오면 좋겠네요
Child diagnosed with ADHD, feeling like the sky is falling
My sister, who was diagnosed with ADHD, said her world has collapsed.
Thinking about that moment still makes me dizzy.
My nephew has always looked anxious even to those who are not experts since he was young. He instinctively picks up and eats food that falls on the table. What happens to him? Is he not feeling well?
You have to come pick me up after I finish going to the daycare.
He was the type of child who had to come by a certain time.
Then, a slight tic symptom appeared.
Thanks to my precious child, even a small action made me realize it could be a tic symptom, so I made an appointment with a pediatric psychiatrist for a consultation.
But suddenly, I suspect that the child may have ADHD.
It was so shocking and like a bolt from the blue, but since the doctor said so, I had no choice but to undergo the tests.
When you think of ADHD, you might imagine being a bit distracted and such, right?
My nephew was the complete opposite of that, so I was really surprised.
I conducted questionnaire and play tests, including question-and-answer assessments, targeting my nephew.
I conducted a questionnaire survey for parents.
It was difficult to manipulate the answers to repetitive questions.
Anyway, the test results show that I don't need medication, but I do have ADHD!!
The doctor advised that it is not yet time to take medication or undergo treatment, and suggested monitoring the progress. They recommended behavioral therapy and orthodontic treatment, so we are currently working on that.
I'm not worried that I have ADHD, so I don't feel like my symptoms have improved, but I have no choice but to trust and follow the treatment, so I feel a bit frustrated.
Childhood ADHD can also lead to adult ADHD, so we are closely monitoring the situation, and the whole family is focused on the child.
Fortunately, I can feel that the child is gradually stabilizing and reducing anxiety, so I believe the ADHD is also easing.
I hope you recover quickly before reaching the point of taking medication.
If you are delaying because you are afraid of receiving a diagnosis, please never do that.
ADHD is not a mental illness, nor is there a need to worsen the condition.
