My Mighty Quinn is the introductory podcast series that's here to debunk some myths, hand backs and power and shed light on a story of hope, unwavering determination and transformation for parents and carers navigating the challenges of children with neurological difficulties, including ADHD, autism, dyslexia, Tourette's, tics and more. I'm your host Lucia Silva. And above all, the devoted and very proud mother of the Mighty Quinn, my 10 year old son, we are looking at what the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention is calling the most serious epidemic of our lifetime, with a shocking one in four children in every classroom being diagnosed with a learning attention, behaviour, developmental or other neurological disorder by the age of eight. But what is more alarming is that we are still using the same diagnostic and treatment methods that we were 50 years ago, whilst you the countless parents are wracked with worry and uncertainty, often feeling frustrated, isolated, and overwhelmed with no concrete explanation, hope or support. Why are we not asking why so many children are presenting with and facing these difficulties? What are the root underlying causes? Surely, it's not okay to accept the situation as any sort of new normal, nor to surrender to medication, which is what is all too readily offered as a way through these developmental and behavioural struggles. There were over 20 million prescriptions of Ritalin for ADHD in the US last year alone. This is horrifying. Something needs to change. And when I was personally faced with the heartbreaking struggles my son was burdened with and receive no explanations hope or support. I was not going to stop until I found answers. I would not accept that this was a cute and unique quirk in Quinn's personality, or that it would simply go away. Is it clearly worse than before my eyes, my son had a totally physically consuming and debilitating tic that held him captive, affecting every aspect of his life, overwhelming his ability to play, socialise, enjoy sport, concentrate, engage, remember, sleep, emotionally regulate or even find enough energy to stay connected and present. Quinn is exceptional, perfectly magical, his uniqueness undeniable, yet his struggles were real, a barrier to his potential and I was compelled to properly understand. I couldn't just accept the insubstantial, unsubstantiated fluff and lack of clarity repeatedly given to me by the countless education Cen paediatric and other establishments, especially when I could see more and more children alongside ahead and behind us in the queue to be seen, all being told the same nothingness about their children. And I could see this watery hopeless signposting was leading in one direction only medication. And this I swore was not going to happen to my son. Not on my watch.
