Cons for medicating ADHD in kids3/28/2024 ![]() As a result of these developments, prescriptions for methylphenidate and amphetamine rose by almost 12 percent a year between 20, according to a 2007 study. A number of my patients-doctors, lawyers and other professionals-have asked me for stimulants in hopes of boosting their productivity. What is more, many people who have no cognitive deficits are opting to take these drugs to boost their academic performance. Food and Drug Administration indications for treating adults, and pharmaceutical firms are pushing awareness of the adult forms of the disorder. In 2008 two new stimulants-Vyvanse (amphetamine) and Concerta-received U.S. In addition, patients are no longer just taking the medicines for a few years during grade school but are encouraged to stay on them into adulthood. This trend may be fueled in part by a relaxation of official diagnostic criteria for the disorder, combined with a lower tolerance in society for mild behavioral or cognitive problems. Over the past 15 years, however, doctors have been pinning the ADHD label on-and prescribing stimulants for-a rapidly rising number of patients, including those with moderate to mild inattention, some of whom, like the sixth grader I saw, have a normal ability to focus. Thus, appropriate medication might keep a person out of prison, away from addictive drugs or in a job. Severe inattention and impulsivity put individuals at risk for substance abuse, unemployment, crime and car accidents. Indeed, the pills can improve attention, concentration and productivity and also suppress impulsive behavior, producing significant improvements in some people’s lives.

His mother acknowledged this was a side effect of the Adderall. On a previous casual encounter, when the boy had been on Adderall, he had seemed reserved and quiet. I also noticed that off the medication he was friendly and playful. The boy had been taking the medication for several years, and his mother had liked its effects: it made homework time easier and improved her son’s grades.Īt the time of this visit, the boy was off the medication, and I conducted a series of cognitive and behavioral tests on him.

This is a very community oriented event, where we sing, cheer and share. When we reach the house of the posada there’s a special song we sing in which we ask for a place to stay the night, and it is denied several times, until the last verse where it’s revealed that it’s Mary and Joseph, and then the people from the posada (posada is like a small “Inn”) accept to give them room. While we go walking (usually staring at the neighborhood park, or the entrance) we sing Christmas carols. Usually we encourage little kids to dress up as Mary, Joseph and little Angels. In the 9 days prior to Christmas Eve we gather as a community and walk around the neighborhood to a house that volunteered to host the posada (it’s different every night). Hi Chriselle!

![]() ![]() She received one X chromosome from each parent – one X from gray mom and one X from orange dad. Zoey’s mom was solid gray and her dad was an orange tabby. My cat Zoey is actually a good example of how the genetics of calicos/torties work. Since all females are XX and males are XY, that leaves females with twice the number of coat color genes compared to males. This gene for coat color is located on the X chromosome. In cats, the gene (portion of DNA) that determines coat color comes in two forms (called alleles): orange or black. ![]() Males are born with one X chromosome and one Y chromosome (XY), while females are born with two X chromosomes (XX). Chromosomes are thread-like structures of DNA located within the cells that make up our bodies. Genetics also determine our biological or assigned-at-birth sex, specifically our X and Y chromosomes (in mammals). DNA determines why we are born with black hair or blonde hair, or with brown eyes or green eyes. DNA is the blueprint for all living things, including you, me, and our furry whiskered companions. The answer lies in their genetics or DNA. The reason why all calico cats are female is the same for tortoiseshell cats. Photo of my tortoiseshell calico cat, Zoey. My cat, Zoey, is considered a “dilute tortoiseshell” because the black, white, and orange in her fur are less vibrant, giving a coat that is more gray overall. Calicos and torties (as tortoiseshells are often called) can also come in a variety of shades. Similar to how all squares are rectangles (have four sides), but not all rectangles are squares (all sides of the same length). ![]() While all calico cats are tortoiseshell, not all tortoiseshell cats are calicos. Tortoiseshells often also have smaller speckles of color rather than the large quilt-like patches on calicos. Tortoiseshell cats are similar to calicos, but can have two (orange and black) or three colors (orange, black, and white) in their coat (see above illustration). All calicos have at least three colors of fur. While the pattern and shade of these classic Neapolitan kitties can vary widely, there is something they all share in common: all calico cats are female!Ĭalico is not a breed of cat, but rather a name for a particular tri-color coat pattern. Coat differences between calico (large splotches of 3 colors) and tortoiseshell (smaller splotches of 2-3 colors). Image is author’s own work.Ĭalico cats have a secret hidden under all those cute black, white, and orange spots. ![]() Elise finch 20193/24/2024 ![]() But afterward, she was informed that CPS was charging her with child abandonment. Believing she was safe, she shared what had happened. The next day, she was called into the Office of Child Protective Service (CPS). Within minutes, the kids were located and she was reunited with them. “Where are my kids?!” Hysterical, she immediately called the police, who were sympathetic. A few minutes later she came to, and panic jolted through her. Then suddenly, without realizing it, she pulled the car over, opened the door, and walked some distance. On December 27, 2018, a date that’s etched into her brain, she was driving her car with two of her young sons strapped in in the back. She began having dissociative episodes-breaks from one’s reality and surroundings. This forced him out of the house, but he moved nearby and made sure she knew he was watching her.Īll of that led to the haunting incident that brought her to the Arizona treatment center. He told her that if she revealed the truth “she wouldn’t make it.” Fearing for her life, she took out a protection order against him, and filed for divorce. His line was that she was mentally ill, suffering from postpartum depression, and she was making it all up. ![]() When she let onto others the truth about his behavior, they couldn’t believe it. At his insistence, she explained away her bruises and broken bones as the results of falls in the shower or down the stairs. But behind closed doors, he controlled Jennifer’s every movement, she says, and was physically and sexually violent. While she worked at the hospital-“the best nurse I ever worked with,” says a former colleague-he was a member of the grassroots advocacy group Indivisible, and was often picketing with the kids in tow. In their small, liberal community in Topeka, most people saw him as a doting father with the right values. No one understood what she knew, but couldn’t articulate for so long: that Brendan was an abuser and master gaslighter-in the original sense of the word. She was suffering severe PTSD from all she’d been through in her 18-year marriage. In January 2019, Jennifer Beyer, a registered nurse from Kansas, arrived at an Arizona mental health treatment center believing she’d never get to see her five kids alone again. ![]() Putty settings for ssh session3/24/2024 ![]() ![]() A.6.6 How do I copy and paste between PuTTY and other Windows applications?.A.6.5 How can I start an SSH session straight from the command line?.A.6.4 How can I create a Windows shortcut to start a particular saved session directly?. ![]() A.6.3 How can I make PuTTY start up maximised?.A.6.2 What commands can I type into my PuTTY terminal window?.A.6.1 What login name / password should I use?.A.5.4 Why has Plink started saying ‘Press Return to begin session’?.A.5.3 Why do small PuTTY icons appear next to the login prompts?.A.5.1 What terminal type does PuTTY use?.A.4.3 How can I use PuTTY to make an SSH connection from within another program?.A.4.2 Is the SSH or Telnet code available as a Visual Basic component?.A.4.1 Is the SSH or Telnet code available as a DLL?.A.3.8 Will there be a port to the iPhone?.A.3.4 Will there be a port to Windows CE or PocketPC?.A.3.3 What's the point of the Unix port?
