I can give you horror stories with the medications and so forth! I dealt with my ex claiming my son was ADHD and every other term you could think of to call it. She had him put on all kinds of meds etc etc. When he really wasn't. Doctors are to quick to prescribe medication because it's an easy way out. I would stop the medicines and give her time to adapt and adjust. If your daughter had been home schooled all these years then all of a sudden she's in a public school environment, that's a huge change that she maybe fully hasn't adjusted to. Doping her up with these types of medications is not the answer. What was she prescribed? What is the dosage amount? How big is your daughter (weight)? Has she become a "woman" yet? Might sound like stupid questions but all that is taken in consideration for Miligram amounts. Feel free to PM me about this.
