Some really great discussion going on in the replies here but this is where you’ve lost the plot.
For millions of people, medication does in fact solve ADHD. Making misrepresentative blanket statements about the efficacy of medical treatment to promote your product as more necessary is not okay.
If you are looking to have your program eventually treated as a covered therapy under insurance, this kind of messaging can really hurt you.
- christalwang 2y agoSorry, maybe I should have reworded. I meant to say "medication does not solve all of ADHD", "medication does not solve ADHD for all". Hm, still thinking of the right wording. I use medication myself, so by no means am I anti-medication. I think the point I'm trying to make is that it's not a magic pill. And there are side effects as well. If you can layer in foundational lifestyle medicine and good, healthy choices, that makes the world of difference and can potentially allow you to take less medication. The reason I say this is because we get SO many people who come to us feeling dejected that they put all their hope on medication and when their life didn't immediately get to where they'd like, they felt like there was no hope, like there is no other alternative. I don't need people to use Shimmer, I just want people to know there's hope if your meds don't work, and there are other solutions beyond meds. This could be therapy, coaching, self-management, and other tools!
