For more than eight decades, medication stimulants have been used effectively as a treatment for ADHD.  To date, research suggests that these medications may have the highest impact on helping those with ADHD move forward in life. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, attention and ADHD coach Jeff Copper (www.digcoaching.com) shares an interview from 2018 with Dr. John I. Bailey, Jr., retired medical doctor who specialized in the treatment of ADHD and was known as the “dean” of ADHD treating physicians in Alabama. Dr. Bailey talked about how, by accident, the stimulants had been discovered to help those with ADHD to focus. He discussed the history of stimulant medications and articulated a simple difference in the various drugs and their effects.
