At no time in our history have we been more medicated as a society than we are today. Yet one study has shown that 75% of pediatricians are NOT confident in diagnosing ADD/ADHD, let alone psychiatric conditions. Meanwhile, access to specialized services, especially for children, are practically nonexistent.
Chapter 7 discusses several cognitive and psychiatric conditions, many of which are often treated with medication. Pretend you are the parent of a child with one of these conditions. You would want to learn as much as you possibly can about the condition and the medications that may be prescribed to your child, right?
Select a condition for which the current treatment course is medication and fully answer each of the following prompts:
Fully explain the condition, its causes and symptoms.
Describe your plans to support your child given the diagnosis.
Briefly describe the medication(s) prescribed to adolescents with this condition. Would you consider medication(s) as a treatment option? Why/Why not?
