I feel guilty for medicating my child

Pediatrician recommended ADHD medication. It genuinely helps my kid focus. But I feel guilty: Am I taking the easy way out? Should I try harder with behavior strategies? Is medication 'cheating'?
I know it helps. Shame says I'm failing by using it.
If your child is on medication, how did you get past the guilt? How do you know it's the right choice?
