ADHD has its own medicine, and it is up to the client or at least their guardian to decide whether to take it. Like most other medical problems.
Exactly! People shouldn't be forced to take medication! Especially if someone tells them it will 'magically cure their symptoms.' That is highly suspicious.
Also, where did ADHD come from? I thought this thread was about autism?
I'm not sure what is going on in this thread tbh. It's getting rather muddled.
If ASD has a corresponding medicine, it is unlikely to be used in a different way from the medicine of ADHD.
That is, if you are not worried about the medicine for ADHD, there is no reason to panic about the medicine for potential ASD.
ADHD meds are usually being compared to wearing glasses.
The glasses doesn't cure the vision impairments, wouldn't? And the wrong lenses makes things worse. And then there's this preferences, comfort, "style", which can take years or several frames and brands before getting it right...
Also lifestyle can worsen said vision impairments and would need to make adjustments because of that.
Why not with AS having meds as well?
Except there's no lasik equivalent for those.
