I’m not sure if I’m looking for something that isn’t there or if my partner can’t see what I can but I am worried my son has adhd and would benefit from some CBT to try and change some of his thinking processes?
My son is 7 nearly 8, he struggles with impulsivity and can not accept his role in anything/ accept responsibility for his actions.
it’s exhausting and I worry all the time about ‘what he’ll do next’. He’s been experiencing issues at school but now he seems to be on track in lessons it’s just at break ( when unsupervised) he can make the wrong choices.
does anyone have any experience of similar? I don’t know if he’s just a young stereotypical boy and he’ll grow out of some of these things with guidance or if he’s going to need an intervention. I don’t think he’s ‘bad’ enough for medication. He gets 10-11 hrs sleep a night, limited screens, lots of outdoor exercise and eats well. We also chat over things A LOT but I feel I’m getting no where and it’s taking it’s toll.
