sorry you couldn't come Timeout, we missed you!
It went really well B"H (I am a little biased )
Everyone thinks that they are alone in these difficult situations and when you meet others who are in the same place you feel better. We had some mothers with older children and it was helpful for those with younger children to hear that it does get easier to handle.
We also talked about aspects of AD/HD that are present but not that well known such as diminished personal motivation and executive functioning impairments: how they affect the way individuals with AD/HD respond and behave and what we can do to help in both home and school environments.
The key to success with AD/HD is management and getting advice from others on how to manage really makes things smoother. Our group is very solution-oriented and together we are able to help out each other.
Our next group is June 15th - all are welcome to join us.
