Christmas with ADHD
I love Cayden and I love Christmas but with him having ADHD it is very hard to have both. I think if it was just the holidays I could handle it but he has so many routine changes that it is really taking a tole on him. Him potty training and being at home and doing more shopping to get all the christmas gifts that we may not have gotten and the fact that he is home from school we have to take him with us. He is not sure how to handle all of the changes going on this year.
His sister had a doctors apt today with their psychiatrist and we tried to keep him off ADHD drugs but the way he is out of control this year he put him on a very small dose to take the edge off his anxiety of the holidays. His father and I hated doing it but it was either that or we would be spending the holidays in the "looney bin" LOL. The only prob. is that his psychiatrist is in Nashville and he sees him over a t.v. and they are closed until tues. So the next 4 days are going to be VERY LONG.
I will keep yall posted on how Christmas went especially if he has any presents left to open!!!!!
