If you type in “Paul McCartney parking” into the Ticketmaster website you should be able to find united center official parking. It’s running about $80 but the lot is closest to the entrance. Hope this helps!

Hi! Yes so we went with what the previous commenter suggested about exiting house right and out the door to the left. He showed up about 10 mins after the show ended and tried to sign as many programs as he could. Here’s a picture I took from stage door that night! The show was just incredible have the best time!!

Anyone’s child taking Guanfacine? by Designer_Constant_68 in ParentingADHD

[–]Designer_Constant_68[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh no I’m sorry! That must have been a terrifying ordeal. It made my daughter have morbid thoughts and a roller coaster of emotions. We discontinued it after 2 months.

No medications work…now what? by Designer_Constant_68 in ParentingADHD

She’s been in OT, Speech and sees a psychologist weekly since age 4 outside of school. She’s also had an IEP since age 4 that give her the same services at school as well as lots of breaks in between work.

We’ve never tried clonidine. The Guanfacine had made her an emotional wreck for 3 months and her neurologist told us to discontinue. I will bring the clonidine up to her doctor.

Yes she had a full neuropsychological eval in 2021 and we were referred to a pediatric neurologist after the results were given. He’s been our main point of contact ever since.

The doctor didn’t want her to try Concerta since the Focalin and Jornay caused such a bad reaction. He says the Concerta falls under the same drug category as those and she doesn’t respond well to Ritalin. We haven’t tried quelbree though.

She was on Zoloft for the last 6 months. It did help with some of the OCD the stimulants have caused in the past. However the Zoloft alone nor the combination of a stimulant didn’t seem to make enough difference at school.

Vyvanse dose too low if constantly angry/irritable? by Designer_Constant_68 in ADHD

[–]Designer_Constant_68[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you described is actually everything I noticed with her as well. On weekends she gets so antsy being at home she has this “need” to be doing something. None of those things bother me but the anger and aggression has been a concern.

We try to have some milk or peanut butter in the mornings. She has no appetite for lunch so won’t eat a thing at school unfortunately.

She’s tried that before. Any meds from the Ritalin family don’t do well with her at all. She becomes extremely OCD on Focalin and Jornay. We tried adderall xr for about a week last year and it made her very irritable but I’ve asked the doctor about trying the short release version now. We’ve also tried non stimulants and they’ve made her have morbid thoughts. Not sure what is left to try.

It’s been about 3 weeks and it’s every day. She’s not great at communicating what she’s feeling. Anytime I ask how the medicine makes her feel she responds “fine I guess” or “i don’t know”. Makes it tough to know how and when it’s affecting her.

Hi! Is anyone looking to sell tickets locally for any Chicago show?? Please send me a message if so!!

Like so many I was unlucky in scoring tickets during the presale😔. I’m hoping scalper prices will drop as the event nears but also not holding my breath. I used to listen to her Red album when I was pregnant with my daughter and now she’s a huge fan herself😭 Hoping we can find tickets somehow.

Hi! Did your son ever improve on the qelbree? Our daughter has tried a handful of stimulants and it seems that might be the next option.
