Longterm Meds?HI My son has been on meds for nearly 10 years. If he had not he would of been dead now. This is what I was told if he was on meds for more than 5 yrs. -I was told he would not grow much .. he is now nearl 6ft. -Told he would not do well at school .. just started college. -Told he would provoke odd body movement .. no just trawls to kitchen for food. etc etc Its a case of working out the + and - for taking or not .... Moon6 PS If he stops taking them he will be dead cos I would murder him ..He is so dangerous off them .. and the damage to home etc is sky high ....
Thanks for the info moon. I have already accepted the fact that I will be on amphetamines for a long long time and it's good to hear that others have been sucessful on them. I've only been on them for 4 years but I know I will live much longer on the meds then I would if I was off of them. Anyone else out there on longterm meds? I read that Methylphenidate has been used for over 5o years to treat symptoms of ADHD. Where are those people that started using it 50 years ago? Hopefully they are around to talk about it! |
