Does anyone have a child with ADHD and they were eligible for Social Security benefits?


I have 2 children with ADHD. Only my 6 year old is on meds the other one is 18 and a senior in high school and has decided not to take his meds anymore. The 6 year old can not function academically or socially without his meds . I was wondering if anyone has had experience with applying for SSI for a child with ADHD. If anyone has had experience with this type of situation, I would surely appreciate the input.

Hi ..i attend a group meeting for parents of children with autism and adhd, i know that the parents in this group whom have children with adhd are being turned down for Disability because they still lead a 'normal' life regardless although it can be tough, Now my son Thomas has severe autism he is also non verbal and still in nappies/diapers he is 10 now and gets the highest rate, i was also told his school has input on this decision also you can try all they can or would say is 'No'
