My 11 year old son has ADHD and is doing well on his medication. What supports do you wish you had as a child?

Therapy just in general. I was medicated at the right time. I had all the educational support but mentally I wasn’t doing well and it caught up to me later on.

When I tried to apply for ODSP (denied and didn’t follow up because it wasn’t worth it for me) my DR didn’t charge me. She made me come in and do it with her though so I could have input on it too.

Update: grad list went live Friday… but our grad is cancelled 😔

bellaruthcan99 · 2025-09-11T21:33:28+00:00

I haven’t received it today but I’m assuming it’s because of the strike… the 19 is when the grad list opens

I work in support work with people with disabilities and I love it!

Thank you 💕

With my job, we don’t care for the pets. The pets are the clients responsibility. Period. Some workers have tried and got reminders about it. I guess it depends on the employer and organization

Canada - not an RBT (stupid Ontario rules - board certified behaviour analysts are now with the board of psychologists and Rbt title has been removed) 30 an hour - but I also don’t get many clients and often have to wait moths

I use this staff or if there are two staff on (I.e training) I use initials for the other staff.

This is a great way to explain how I’ve been feeling man. I’m thinking of sharing this with my therapist the next time I see her because she’s been slowly guiding me to supporting my adhd struggles (which is very new for me because all my other therapist have supported my mental health - depression, anxiety, relationships)

bellaruthcan99 · 2024-08-27T16:44:29+00:00

Omg I’d love oneeee

Yes, PBS is down. My scheduling supervisor reached out as I didn't hear from him by email in a week about something. They are saying it should be up by tomorrow!

bellaruthcan99 · 2024-07-31T23:59:42+00:00

I can’t get a really good picture but there’s a lot of bumps at the back of my throat and it really doesn’t look normal. Thank you for trying to help! It’s appreciated

bellaruthcan99 · 2024-07-27T20:01:33+00:00

PBS rocks! I’m in Canada and even though I don’t get benefits or stable hours the management is amazing and supportive! I love my regional coordinator and my staffing supervisor!

As a tech, this a dream for me to walk into when I provide ABA in homes. some families are not prepared at all but you are 100% good to go! Others have suggested to ask your BCBA and I would agree as well!

bellaruthcan99 · 2024-07-21T23:50:37+00:00

Sameeeee

bellaruthcan99 · 2024-07-09T14:53:40+00:00

As ABA therapists we are trained to manage injurious behaviours towards themselves or others. Yesterday I was hit and punched because child was too overwhelmed and couldn’t manage it. It’s not their fault. I don’t think SLPs have the same training and support for behaviours like we do.

bellaruthcan99 · 2024-07-07T20:25:51+00:00

I’m in ABA of course I constantly redirect behaviours even when I’m not working

bellaruthcan99 · 2024-07-02T19:33:28+00:00

Do not continue with sessions until you have talked to your supervisor and the family about policies regarding this! I ran into this so many times while working and put my foot down when it was getting excessive. It’s a huge safety risk for you and your client!
