Psychotomy

So … After deciding we don’t like the old psych bc we felt they were borderline useless we found a new one. Friend of a friend got in same week!

So anyway, a) much better designed waiting area. Almost like they expect to have children visiting. B) much better doctor. Listened to the words we said and our cover a and out report from the old meds. Even asked “so… Why didn’t she want to change his med if it wasn’t working? That’s dumb” so yay!

Got a new scrip (adderall now) gave him the trial dosage Thursday morning. And I could see some difference before I led the house an hour later. WOW.

I understand he sat for his schoolwork and even did his reading. In fact, he DID HIS READING. as in he read the page and sounded out some words and generally kind of read it. I knew he could do it, he just never looked at the par long enough to see what the letters and words WERE. Which is actually why I can’t do picture books, he reads based on the picture not the words

Anyway, yay! Raising him to a standard low dosage this week. Seeing doc again in a couple weeks for followup and adjustment. Probably going to 2x or 3x /day. Probably raising the dosage another notch too

But I’m cool with tuning if we found a scrip that works!!!
