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.

    Dear Sir,

    My nephew is 9 years old..very violent behaviour at times…does not listen to anybody
    creates havoc and throws tantrum in public places …in shopping malls…bites or pushes
    the teacher at school…argues a lot…insults people..
    please let me know what is the right remedy for him.

    • Hispana tarentula because of the violence. Use 200 every other day or 30x three times a day. Pray for the best. They have heard a lot of negatives, but they only respond to positive comments. They will secretly take revenge, so try to speak positively, remain calm and keep hope in your heart.

    My son is 8y2m old. he started to walk at the right time. But he doesn’t talk and is hyper active. he speaks his own language . He has been diagnosed with ADHD and mild Autism. can he cured by Homeopathy? Please help me out

    • My son is 8 yrs old he’s not concentrating in study …

    • For the autism, you need to detox him. Give probiotics daily. Avoid sugar and carbohydrates . Review Dr. Sharma’s symptoms for ADHD to see which sounds like the best fit for your child. Look for that one idiosyncrasy that tells you that it is the right medicine. Be patient. Pray.

  18. ROHANDIP BARMAN(MY SON) says:

    my son five years age but could not spoke clearly ,physicali did not abnormal,hyperactivity very much

  19. My son is 5 years old and is autistic. Though he was hyperactive when he was diagnosed with autism but now he is exhibiting symptoms of increased hyperactivity. We have made our best efforts to control his hyperactivity but to no avail. Can you suggest homeopathic medicinal treatment to reduce his hyperactivity ?

  20. Jennifer Wallen says:

    Hello Dr. Sharma, my son is 12YO and was diagnosed with ADHD at age 7. He is extremely hyperactive – more than any other child I’ve seen – and we have had him on Adderall, Concerta, Vyvanse, and Intuniv but we couldn’t avoid sleep issues, appetite issues, etc. We finally took him off all pharmacological medications when his height seemed to be effected. He gets angry but he is not violent.

    We took him to a Naturopath who prescribed a variety of remedies: fish oil, multivitamin, probiotic, and two homeopathic remedies. We didn’t see any change. I found Focus Formula and Bright Spark online and asked the naturopath about it and she recommended the Focus Formula. We had him on Bright Spark with the Focus Formula but took that out several months ago since it didn’t seem to be doing any good. We have continued the Focus Formula but we’re seeing virtually no improvement in his hyperactivity or focus. It does seem to act as a mood stabilizer, though.

    We are extremely frustrated and would appreciate guidance on other products we can try. He is a good kid but with his lack of focus and his hyperactivity, he’s not as successful socially or academically as he could be.

    Thank you!
