Im a little concerened about my daughter and being on aderoll, anyone have any advice about how to keep calm?

caffeine products there are also stimulants, but this will only keep them calm for a short amount of time...


There are diets and herbal remedies for this too, try them out along with a good structured environment (a schedule) and a good behavioral modification plan. If it doesn't work in like 3 months, then go ahead and put her on the meds.Im a little concerened about my daughter and being on aderoll, anyone have any advice about how to keep calm?
That all depends on her age and her general temperament . My 8 year old daughter has ADHD and has been on medication since kindergarten. It has done WONDERS for her in every aspect of her life. I heavily weighed the Pro's and Con's and decided to try the medication. But I also understand the importance of non-medicinal approaches. Positive reinforcement works extremely well for my daughter. It is time consuming and difficult but effective. You simply must ignore her annoying non-dangerous behaviors and reward ANY good ones. Even if she sits quietly for a few minutes, give her praise. Eventually, she will learn that good behavior gets her positive attention. Also, try to find her a creative outlet such as art, music, reading, etc. I have heard that giving hyperactive children small doses of caffeine helps calm them. Sounds crazy, but I've heard it works. I totally understand how frustrating having a hyperactive child can be! Hang in there! I hope this helps! :)
