Steps To Enjoying the Holidays With ADHD Children

November 14, 2022 by Annie

ADHD can be difficult to live with in the most mundane circumstances. During the holidays, when the whole world seems to get brighter, louder and busier, ADHD triggers are seemingly everywhere. The holidays are a time when routines tend to get thrown out the window, which can also act as a trigger. Brillia ADHD medicines can help, but when your child is struggling with ADHD-related issues over the holidays, you can have a mighty effect on their sense of happiness and well-being.

Connect With Your Child

The parent/child bond is deep and intense. This connection is not only present during the good times, but is especially important during the trying ones. The demands that are put on parents by children with ADHD can sometimes feel overwhelming, but they should never threaten that connection. More to the point, the child should never perceive that the connection is being threatened.

One of the reasons that learning how to help your child to cope with ADHD-related symptoms is so that you won’t have your own emotional outbursts. When a child with ADHD does something wrong and experiences what they perceive to be a punishment, or that they have become estranged from their parents, they tend to have feelings of guilt and shame. These feelings are magnified when they don’t even know what they’ve done wrong.

It’s so important to acknowledge your child’s feelings, especially when you have the closest connection to them. Consider how important this connection is in a room full of strangers or even extended family. No matter the circumstances, when a child is experiencing ADHD-related fear, anger or anxiety, you are their best bet.

Maintain Routine

Brillia ADHD reviews reveal that medicine can be a valuable aid to parents who are trying to help their children work through ADHD symptoms. Maintaining a routine can be another powerful aid because children with ADHD thrive on routines. Likewise, surprises or changes to the routine can be triggers.

During the holidays, you should try to keep those routines as consistent as possible, while giving warnings about routine changes early and often. Like anybody else, if children are prepared for the arrival of the change, they’ll be better equipped to deal with it. A good example of keeping to a routine during uncertain times is that even though your child’s bedtime might be different, you can still otherwise engage in the same routine, which will be comforting for its normalcy.

Adjust Screen Expectations

Screen time is a slippery slope when it comes to children, in general. It is often used to silence a behavior or to reward a job well done. However, if that screen isn’t delivered with explanations as to when and why it is allowed, it’ll likely reinforce bad behaviors and become a substitute for guidance. During the holidays, if you give your child some more screen time, explain why this is so.

ADHD can be a disruptive element in a child’s life, but it can also be manageable. Besides natural anxiety medication for children, there are techniques that you can employ that can help to mitigate ADHD-related symptoms. Visit a health and wellness website today to see the selection of OTC ADHD remedies available to help you and your child have a more serene and happy tomorrow.
