"My adhd child & support received"

About: Child and Adolescent Mental Services / Inishowen CAMHS Team

(as a parent/guardian),

My son is 15, we’ve been with camhs since he was around 8/9 years of age! He suffers a lot with anxiety and through the years, only for the help from camhs, I don’t know where we would be now! He’s on medication and is regularly checked, meds are doing wonders for him, he’s well settled back into school and is starting to thrive as he is able to concentrate more.

He’s been under Dr Tom and Dr Bennie, he also had sessions with Caroline, psychology! He really wanted more sessions with Caroline but he was just allocated a certain number of them! 

We couldn’t have done it without the help from his amazing team! Thank you
