Attention Deficit Disorder / Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder Patient Testimonials

From the parents of Joshua, a 7 year old ADHD patient . . .

“Until my son Joshua attended the Drake Institute he was a wonderful little boy locked inside the confines of ADHD. He wanted to pay attention and learn at school, but he couldn’t. Negative feedback and the principal’s office were the major part of his school life. At home he wanted to be a good boy and do the things he was asked to do, but he couldn’t. He couldn’t hold his attention long enough to dress himself and asking him to clean up his room was an impossible task. I could never take him shopping with me because he would run all over the place. Joshua was born a happy child full of love, life, and joy. When ADHD became evident, Joshua became a changed person. He became shy and withdrawn with the fear no one would like him, so he had no friends. The wild and uncontrollable actions that accompany this malfunction of the brain took Joshua to a world of isolation and unbearable loneliness.

To put Joshua on a lifetime of drug dependence was a last resort for my husband and me. And then the Drake Institute became a part of Joshua’s life. I honestly noticed a difference in Joshua after the first treatment. As the treatments went on, Joshua just got better and better. When he started at a new school in September, his teacher saw no evidence of ADHD. Joshua tells us that he is the third best worker in the class. He has gained the respect of many of his classmates and has new friends. It is now a joy to take Joshua anywhere.

Thank you for helping our son Joshua out of the confines of ADHD and thereby letting the world see another beautiful human being.”
