Adhd does not get better with age, diet, therapy or lifestyle changes, it just doesn’t. But yes medication can have an effect on growth and stuff like that and it’s a balancing act to find what is the best way for each individual person and age. I don’t think children need medication as much because their only responsibility is to play. Adhd gets worse the older you get and more responsibilities you have, at least that has been my experience.

I hope you understand and read up on adhd being a comorbidity and left untreated it can and most probably will lead to other health complications down the line. I say this with an experience of someone who had a safe and healthy upbringing, much better than the average ”american-style” diet and life, but still very much had adhd cause me immense trouble all through my life.

ADDitude Magazine has really good and helpful information on their site and great Youtube videos with everything to do with ADHD.
