AuDHD + medication
Hi all! I have a six-year old who has both an autism diagnosis and an ADHD diagnosis. We're looking to explore the possibility of medication, and we'd love referrals to prescribing doctors who are (a) neurodivergence affirming, (b) have experience treating comorbid autism and ADHD (we've heard that some of the drugs work differently), and (c) are good with little kids (my son is six and--as with many ADHD kiddos--has the social/emotional skills of a 3-4 year old). Any recs? Thank you all!
PS: We've heard a lot of information pro and con re medication, and, while we're still exploring, we don't need more perspectives on that question at this junction.
