ADHD & HOMEOPATHY

HYPERACTIVE KIDS AND HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT

image

IMAGINE living in a fast-moving kaleidoscope where sounds, images and thoughts are constantly shifting. You feel easily bored but you are helpless in keeping your mind on the tasks you need to complete. Distracted by unimportant sights and sounds, your mind drives you from one thought or activity to the next. Perhaps you are so wrapped up in a college of thoughts and images that you don?t notice someone speaking to you.For many people, this is what it is like to have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD patients may be unable to sit still, plan, finish tasks, or be fully aware of what?s going on around them.

It is also important to realise that during certain stages of development, the majority of the children tend to be inattentive, hyperactive or impulsive. Pre-schoolers have a great deal of energy and they run everywhere. But this doesn?t mean that they are hyperactive. Certain diagnostic criteria have to be ascertained before a child is diagnosed with the disorder.

Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder is a diagnosis applied to children and adults who consistently display certain characteristic behaviour over a period of time. The most common behaviour falls into two categories: inattention and or hyperactivity/impulsiveness.

According to a study published in The British Homoeopathic Journal in October, 1997, children afflicted with ADHD were given either a homeopathic treatment or a placebo. Those receiving homeopathic medicines showed significantly more improvement than those given placebos. The homoeopathic medicines found most helpful for ADHD were Stramonium, Cina and Hyoscyamus Niger. Stramonium was specifically indicated when children had many fears, or suffered symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. The children who were physically aggressive benefited the most from Cina, and, children with manic or sexualised symptoms responded favourably to Hyoscyamus Niger

Homeopathic prescribing is generally based on idiosyncratic characteristics of an individual but if one medicine is to be favoured for treating a large number of ADHD(attention deficit hyperactive disorder) cases, Tarentula Hispana should be that one.

Hyperactive kids requiring Tarentula often have extreme restlessness and compulsion to hurry. Their legs are in motion, and they have a lot of trouble sitting still. The desire to run about, the urge to dance and to jump up and down are usual for them. Great, fantastic dancing! Loss of all sense of shame. Sudden and violent, or sly and destructive movements ? well, these are clear features of this medicine. One particular symptom that distinguishes Tarentula is its strange relation to music. Violence is a strong feature of the remedy ? violence with anger! His clothing strikes him. He strikes his attendants and best friends!

One more symptom that distinguishes Tarentula is its strange relationship to music. Sometimes music ameliorates all the symptoms and at other times it aggravates them. The child becomes violently excited after listening to music.

Can all hyperactive children be lumped together under one diagnostic category? Can a child, who lashes out in a violent manner at his family members and peers, fit into the same diagnostic group as a sweet gregarious one who simply cannot pay attention to the work in the class? A homoeopath would say that both temperaments are as different as day and night and would prescribe very different medicines. Individualisation stands as a key point in homeopathic treatment.

A word of caution: As this is a deep-seated disorder, any homeopathic intervention should be done under the guidance of a thorough professional.

    My 3.5 Years son is little hyperactive (jumps in bed, wants to do lot of physical activity) and his attention span is very small. At times he wants to bite people but does not do so as we have strictly asked him no to do the same. He also has cribbing to eat clothes lot of times. Since birth he has skin eczema but gets relieved if we apply neem oil.
    Does not mix with other students in school well and does not like being disturbed when busy.
    Overall learning is ok but he is very moody. He is very restless and does not like waiting for his turn. However, if calmed down and made understood, he understand that he has to wait.
    Generally is happy. Loves and cares for elder sibling and other cousins.
    Remembers and recites poems when asked to do so but attention goes in some time. At times he wants for attention. He was a late speaker, speaks less and does not speak very clearly till now. But, is able to communicate.
    Need to know what medicine we can give him.

  14. Dear Dr Sharma

    I am writing to you out of desperation for myself and my baby girl.
    We are currently in hospital in NSW AUSTRALIA.
    We are here because my baby girl (now 10 weeks) suffered a terrifying birth and since she was two weeks of age she has been in a “trance” like state.
    I feel with all my heart and soul that her symptoms are from her birth. Her head had one hematoma two weeks ago now she has seven or so along each side of her head. The initial. Hematoma much bigger and protuding.
    All mri and eeg show no fracture swelling or bleeding. I see everyday her head change shape. The hematomas grow so to speak and the brow of her head more protruding.
    Along with this..a picture of symptoms.
    I’m not a qualified homeopath but have tried a few first aid remedies. Her state scares me…she cant feed well.. Its like she s in and out of a semi coma.
    At night around the time of her birth she screams in pain. Her eyes red and tears pouring down her beautiful little face’like her head is about to explode..her face so red and she screams in total pain.
    Tomorrow we are going to Brisbane Hospital.
    I am seeking help.
    Are you able to help in anyway?
    I am terrified .
    (I have tried many first aid remedies but noting helps.)
    Thank you
    Kind Regards
    Cheryl

He is very bright child and intaligent too! After doing his ADHD test v found he had this Minor problem, but his iq levels came upto 120. Drs suggested medication to settle him, v were giving that last 3 months! Now the course is over! But still he is the same! At home he is well behaved child! But in public places he becomes more hyperactive! he is very quick grasper but slow in writing, and gets easily distracted in middle of work! V have also tried play therapy! But even after a hard ground play for more than 2 to 3 hours, he doesn’t get exhausted!

  19. Concerned Mom says:

    Hi Dr. Sharma,
    I have been doing a lot of research on ADHD/ODD and medications. My 11 year old son was diagnosed two years ago with ADHD and being I counsellor, I notice that he suffers from anxiety as well. His paediatrician put him on Vyvanse 30mg which seemed to help the adhd, however it really made him lose weight (He’s only 70 pounds) and he has a very difficult time sleeping. So his paediatrician prescribed him 0.1 of Clonidine to help him sleep and 4mls of cyprohyptedine for appetite. My boy is not violent to other people or animals, he is very sweet, however he experiences anger that he has a hard time to control once in a while. He will throw whatever he has in his hands at the wall etc. He also has started to swear a lot. Recently he has become very sad and withdrawn and angry. His paediatrician wants me to add Prozac to his medication list for depression now. I think that all of these medications are making him worse and changing his personality. I want to stop the medications and let him eat and sleep again and go more natural. I have been researching cina and stramonium and I’m interested in trying one of those products. Which would you recommend and can I offer melatonin at night to help him sleep?
    Thanks for your time
