    Dr. Hnadleman - What a well presented initial video. Informative, concise, just the right basis building for future episodes.
    I am very much looking forward to additional video education from you regarding ADHD.
    I also will pass this on to my daughter and many frineds who will benefit from this spot-on information.
    Thank you.
    Until next time - Mary Mazzullo

    Very informative. Like your blog. If yo can please also with adult add as well. Very knowlegeable. Istead of listening or reading we can actually do both which is a good move. For people like me who would rather learn from a video.

    Tried to listen. You lost me in the explanation. Couldn’t stay interested long enough to get into the meat of it. I’m sure this will be very positive for many. It would be good if I could read it at the same time that I am hearing/seeing it. Guess it’s obvious that I have ADD. I’ll try again later. Best wishes! :)

    Thank you for giving a “face to us” mode of communication. I look forward to future episodes and hope to begin to help others as you are helping me.

    Thank you for doing this Dr. Handelman!

    For those of us who are visual learners - it’s nice to have the eye contact with the presenter. I found the earlier “radio” versions difficult to keep on track with.

    I put my laptop on the kitchen table at breakfast to watch the show. Great that my husband got a chance to view it as well.

    I had a problem when viewing with the ability to rewind or fast forward. Seems there isn’t a bar to do this with. This episode was fairly straight forward but in future ones it would be nice to be able to re-watch segments rather than have to watch the whole thing from the beginning.

    Thank you for being such a great advocate for positive thinking towards ADHD!

    Dr. Kenny,

    I’m so glad I saw you mentioned on the ADDitude site. I watched your first pod cast and found it informative and also it is comforting to know that you are out there helping parents of children with ADD/ADHD. My son is borderline and for the most part is doing well. He is a great kid
    . We of course have our challenges but we work together as a family to overcome them. I look forward to your next pod cast. Thank you for taking your time to help parents like myself better understand and be advocates for our children at home and at school. And thank you too for helping us feel like we’re not alone in this and that ADD/ADHD is real.

    Sincerely,

    Karen C.

    I applaude your effort sincerely. Keep up the great work and thank you for using the TV/media as a way to get information to parents and adults. It is much more interesting than just reading about it. I understand you might feel that you can not compete with the visual impact of Hollywood, however you are on the right track.
    Yes, I agree also that there are too few Child/Adolescent pyschiatrists overall. I went from a doc who wouldn’t visit my son in the ER when we brought him in for depression, the next told us the very opposite of what the scientific reasearch told us and was generally very intimidating to our son, and the third yelled at him for fidgiting in the waiting room around 5 pm. We finally found a great doc both boarded in Pysch and in Neurology. I think here in NJ it’s a 800 to 1 ratio. As a coordinator for a local CHADD chapter I am very excited that your venue exists and it’s a pleasure to pass this info along to everyone I can reach. Please encourage the professional staff in your circles to explore the CHADD website as it is a wonderful resource for all things AD/HD. I am not sure if Canada has local CHADD chapters, but I bet Trish White knows. She is the head of Volunteer Coordinators nationally. Her email is trishwhite@chadd.org The more professional members there they are the more parents and adults will use us for info and support. Good Luck and Best Wishes for continued success. If you are ever in the Central NJ area and would like to speak at our group meeting please contact me!

    Dr Handelmen,
    Thank you for creating this podcast! I have a young son, age 7 with ADHD. I am looking forward to hearing your information, insights and suggestions. I am also an elementary teacher in the Niagara area, so I hope to apply what I learn in the classroom as well! It is a fabulous idea!

  14. Debbie said on November 10th, 2008 at 8:58 pm

    Thank you, I am looking forward to tuning in to your program every week. MY daughter is 7 and she has ADHD along with many other disabilities. I am hoping to better understand this disability and learn to help all of us, as a family, deal with the everyday situations that arise.

    Wow I’m so glad I randomly came across this. I was diagnosed a yr ago but my son has been dealing w/ this since the diagnosis for him at age 5. It was a real struggle to deal w/ ADHD not diagnosed until my 30’s .

    I deal w/ alot of stigma from family & friends. That’s been something I struggle w/ but anyways Thanks I look forward to future podcast’s

  16. Megan said on February 4th, 2009 at 10:36 am

    i should have watched this episode first! lol! thanks so much for addressing the frustration in getting a diagnosis. i can’t wait to watch more, these are truly helpful…thank you sooooooo very much! it’s amazing to me that you are doing this for free. i feel very fortunate to have subscribed. =]
