Contrary to what you might have heard on social media, ADHD treatment is not solely limited to taking prescription medication. Medication is just ONE way of treating ADHD in children, teens, and adults.
Here's another way of looking at it: if you have a toolbox and all it contains is a hammer, you would be missing out on all the other wonderful things you could build if you had a full toolbox with various other tools inside it.
Medication is just ONE tool. It's a good one, but it's not the only one!
If you or some you love has been diagnosed with ADHD, please consult with a counselor or psychotherapist to discuss treatment options. Medication is just one tool in the toolbox of helping individuals with ADHD to thrive.
Be well!
