My daughter, Natalie, who has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADD/ADHD), doesn’t tolerate riding in the car well, and this, along with several other behavioral issues, has limited our choices for family vacations.

ADHD Medication Effects: Do You Ever Wonder If and How Meds Are Working?My daughter, Natalie, takes several medications for her attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADD/ADHD) and other comorbid conditions and I've often wondered about the effects they have on her symptoms and behavior. Several recent mix-ups about her treatment have given us the opportunity to see how well her meds work (or not).
My daughter, Natalie, takes several medications to treat her attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADD/ADHD) and comorbid conditions. We’re typically very, very regular and reliable about giving Nat her meds accurately -- the right dose, of the right med, at the right time, every single day.
