Who here is parenting an ND child?

Has finding out their diagnosis also led to you or their other parent to a late diagnosis?

Any resources you’d like to share with the community?

    I’m ADHD with Anxiety and guess what my 10 yr old son is the same. Yey for genetics. I’ve been treating and learning to develop this “super-power” since I was in grade school. Because of this knowledge when my son started showing signs of ADHD, my wife and I got him tested and found out that indeed he is.

    I have to admit it can be challenging being ND/ADHD/Anxiety with a kid who is a lot like you and has the same stuff going on.

    I found that CHADD.org is good as is ADDitude Magazine.

    An ADHD coach can be helpful as well. But be careful to screen them. They aren’t regulated like psychologists or psychiatrists.

    I hope this was a little helpful.
