As a mental health patient since childhood I love Dr Charles. The character is very realistic except that not all psychiatrists are that compassionate or have that expertise. I’m lucky mine does.

I worked in a psychiatric hospital for nine years, and I completely agree. There are not enough compassionate, empathetic, caring doctors. I found that even a lot of nursing aides aren't either. You burn out from the constant heartbreak, and sometimes violence, that occurs, but that's when staff should step away and look for employment elsewhere. Once I realized I didn't care as much as I used to, I quit. It's not fair to other staff to make up for the difference, and it's not fair to the patients who need people who care about their well-being. I look back at that time as mostly fond, because of the joy patients felt when they could "breathe again". I'm so glad your care team is so compassionate!

Recently, my cousin was diagnosed with ADHD and my aunt told me that the doctor was very adament about starting in smaller doses because too much too quickly can change brain chemistry if the kid doesn't have ADHD. Most of the time, a good doctor can tell, but for those who can't, it's better to be safe than sorry. Sadly, lots of kids are being misdiagnosed.

it's sad because some kids are misdiagnosed and put on meds they don't need and others are misdiagnosed or have parents who don't listen to the doctors and don't get the meds they need. one of my cousins has adhd and his pediatricians wanted to put him on meds. his mom said he didn't need meds and thought she could beat the adhd out of him. it's devastating seeing a child be beat for something he literally couldn't control.

The kid is so cute. The actors really good.

My older brother had anger management issues too when he was younger. No everything needs a diagnosis. Sometimes you just need to work through things, find a healthy way of dealing with them, realise where they come from. In hindsight, the amount of times mx brother was told or my mum was told about him that he had problems, was crazy, and I don't know what, did nothing good. On the contrary, imagine how insecure he must have felt! "I feel this way, and people look at me like I'm crazy, nobody understands me, nobody tries to see my side." He could have used a Dr. Charles! I actually don't know what it was that improved things in the end. Growing up and maturing probably did its part, his girlfriend, now wife, probably helped as well. Having faith and knowing someone is looking out for you. I am so proud of the guy he has become, meanwhile I'm still looping with the same issues as five years ago, no improvement.

I don’t know why… but I thought it was beautiful and touching when the father just gave Dr Charles the bottle of meds. Maybe it’s cause while some parents cling to any possible explanation for their child’s ailments rather then face the blinding and frightening uncertainty, he saw the real harm it was causing and didn’t even hesitate to let go of the only answer they were ever given. He’s a good father. A very very good father. He’s willing to learn, accept hard truths, face uncertainty, and adapt for his kids.

This actually made me tear up because I don’t have someone like that. I mean, I do, but he’s in another state and very busy so it’s hard to talk to him like this.

Dr Charles is the only doctor on this show that actually knows what they are doing

Just a note that you can't stop Adderall suddenly. The dosage needs to be slowly reduced over time. I legit have ADHD in my meds help me function but it's not the right choice for everybody even those who do have ADHD. Everyone needs to do what's best for themselves or their own kids.

Charles is the reason I watch chigago med

Yeah, kiddo just needed his emotions validated and understand it's normal to feel but healthy ways of dealing with them is needed ❤️

I wish Dr Charles was a real life character I could meet ...

Chicago Med is one of the rare shows where I love almost all the characters, but Dr Charles is by far my favourite!

I have adhd, but back in the day there was no name for it. I was put on medication and wow! It helped me so very much, I remember going into the therapist office and walking around, opening drawers, taking down books, looking on shelves, hearing the cars outside driving on the road, hearing the people walking down the hall, hearing the clock ticking on the wall, seeing the flicker of the lights all while trying to sit down in the chair (I just could not sit still) and talk to the therapist. Once I started the medication, I could filter out most everything that was distracting me and I was able to focus and sit in the chair and talk to the therapist. I do understand that there are so many misdiagnosed with adhd today, but there are those who truly have adhd and medication can and does help them. For those who are misdiagnosed, that medication backfires.

Dr Charles is literally the best

Dr. Charles is my heart when it comes to Chicago Med 🤍

I can’t lie, seeing the same actor/ actress in One Chicago is so weird. The Dad before played an abusive husband in Chicago fire, but now he’s a compassionate father.

Imagine seeing a kid who gets angry and instead of trying "maybe talk to him" they're like "oh ADHD give him meds". But unfortunately for every good doctor you have 10 bad, lazy doctors who just want to get their paycheck and go home to binge drink or whatever. Considering hospitals are the make or break of life and death, your last defense to survive, they really don't care. Makes you wish they got a seriously painful illness and their own peers give the same service they give everyone else.

In theory what dr Charles said is correct. And I guess he could say it cause he knew the parents. But in reality it’s not always like that. I was a troubled kid for a number of reasons and once when I tried to open up to my father about the way I was feeling, after he asked, I was literally told “do u think it’s worth being angry about that?” Really?!?! Maybe not to u but it clearly was to me. If u didn’t want to know or just wanted to condemn me then don’t ask. I never shared my feelings or thoughts w him ever again.

Yes and no. Adderall is a stimulant, so it should absolutely be fine with going cold turkey for, heavier psychoactive or anti-depressant drugs are what you need to wean off of though, because your brain starts to need them to function, so it would be better to get your brain used to not having it in small doses instead, otherwise your brain will lash out in protest and cause some really bad withdrawal symptoms.
