THE FUNCTIONAL FAMILY STORY
Â
I knew my eldest son had ADHD from very early on. My husband has ADHD and we knew what to look for. I listened to my husband's horrific stories of growing up being misunderstood because of his ADHD and I wanted to change the storyline for my little boy. What followed was 17 years of research, formal study of ADHD and trialling everything available to us.
We did occupational therapy, speech therapy, GAPS Diet, RPA Diet, Paleo Diet, Integrative Paediatricians, Developmental Paediatricians, Child Psychologists, neurofeedback therapy, cutting out all colours and preservatives in food, behavioural therapy and then different medications. Â
Everything helped to a certain degree but our home life was chaotic and exhausting! It was not sustainable. We needed family support.
I began studying and researching ADHD and developed systems and patterns to make our home life easier. We needed to tailor the environment to work with the ADHD brain. Â
I now have 3 little boys diagnosed ADHD (throw some Autism, tourettes, ODD, OCD, SPD and SLD in there too). I live it every day, just like you. I want you to know that you are not alone and you can improve how your family functions.
You'll get back your time and energy, but most importantly, you can now create space for the good stuff!
