My Medicated Self
A girl who has ADHD talks about how this one pillow changes how she acts, talks, speaks, and thinks. When she was the age of seven her mother told her to take this. It was a pink pill with a glass of water and her mother said, “here take this”. The seven year old girl asked what it was the mom said, “ trust me it will make everything better”. For eight year she didn’t know which one was true between her medicated self or herself. The pink drug allows her to focus, get acceptable grades, but outside of the education she thinks outside the box.
I agree with this because some children can’t calm down and focus without something to calm them down or angry. People in the world aren’t the same or perfect and other need medication to help them through the day for the disabilities and differences. They should use a safer way to medicate people other than using harmful drugs.
