You don't have to take medication, but, depending on the severity, I would highly recommend it. Medication helps so much, with everything from remembering to brush one's hair in the morning to getting straight As. I have ADHD, I know what it's like, and to me, medication is a blessing on many levels. Without it, I would barely have any of the wonderful things I have today.

What kind of medication do you have to take with ADHD?

The medication varies for most people. I take strattera, fish oil, and concerta. The amounts will also vary depending on age, weight, and other factors. Some people may also take melatonin, but that is only to help you sleep at night, and is not restricted to people with ADHD. I am uncertain of strattera and concerta are Class A drugs or not, but you can only take this medicine if prescribed by a doctor.
