ADHD is a chronic disease, just like asthma, epilepsy and other diseases, which threatens the healthy growth of children all the time, so only long-term medication can continuously control the symptoms and minimize the harm it causes to children. Some parents have misconceptions about ADHD medication, believing that treatment is short-term, temporary, and unannounced, stopping medication when the condition improves slightly, stopping medication casually on weekends and holidays, having their child take medication only during the school year, or even just before the child approaches an exam, and often not following medical advice …… These practices are extremely incorrect. First of all, there is no “holiday” for ADHD, its adverse effects on children are all-weather, treatment not only needs to control the symptoms during the daytime classes, but also at night to ensure that children effectively complete their homework and sleep on time. Treatment should also be 24/7. This will be more effective in improving your child’s academic performance. Secondly, ADHD is not only harmful in terms of learning, but the development of self-esteem, self-confidence, emotional control and social interaction skills are more important for children’s health than academic performance. Medication can effectively control symptoms, improve learning function, and promote the development of self-esteem, self-confidence, emotional regulation and social skills. There is no “vacation” or “non-vacation” for children in the process of knowledge accumulation and growth and development, even during the summer and winter vacations, children have to study, have normal social interactions and arrange their daily life reasonably. From this perspective, long-term medication is very important for the growth of children. In addition, if the treatment stops, the child’s symptoms will fluctuate repeatedly, and the condition will worsen, making treatment more difficult. On the one hand, it increases the burden of care for parents, but more importantly, it leads to emotional instability, lack of confidence in treatment, and resistance to treatment. In short, long-term medication is a very important and necessary tool for children and families with ADHD.
