Just a suggestion. When you do take the holiday You might try tyrosine..probably 500mg in morning when first get up and same around lunchtime...some take 500mg 3 times a day. It may help a little.
I have heard of a few people who have successfully taken their kids off ritalin and replaced it with tryosine and are better off or no worse off with concentration/behaviour at school etc. Others with young children have successfully tried tryosine instead of ritalin. Whether the kids were incorrectly diagnosed is debatable, and also in these cases thyroid problems were in the mothers.
