And what if your child asks for medication? My ten year old has always been cautious, but about the same time I became ill she started becoming anxious, around seven years of age. She saw an ad for an AD and asked what it was. The best way I could explain it that she would understand was to say it was a medication to help with anxiety. She asked if she could get some? I asked if she felt that her anxiety was so bad and she replied that it was constant. She has gone to a psychologist who had suggested that she see someone who could help her through play therapy, but we had at the time thought it wasn't so bad. Now what??
