ADHD…ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVE DISORDER

Attention Deficit Hyperactive disorder  ADHD
It is estimated that about 3-5 percent of all kids, have this disorder. Also the most unfortunate thing is that in many cases this disorder goes totally undiagnosed .The child is often mistaken as hyper-energetic kid or as just being more playful, but the reality is that many such kids suffer from a medical disorder known as Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder or ADHD.

It is a common belief that only kids showing signs of physical hyperactivity have some problem related to this disorder. Well, this actually it is not the complete truth. Symptoms of consistent inattentiveness are also associated with this disorder. It is characterized by hyperactivity (physical), inattentiveness, and impulsivity

ADHD is a medical disorder which usually becomes evident in the preschool years or early school years. It is characterized by hyperactivity (physical), inattentiveness, and impulsivity

Kids having ADHD usually depict either of three patterns of behavior. Either they are more of the hyperactive type, which means that they are more physically hyperactive (constantly moving jumping running fidgeting squirming, having difficulty sitting in one place etc) or the ‘inattentive type’ (having difficulty in concentrating, easily distracted) or the ‘combined type’ (having symptoms of hyperactivity and inattention both).

Not all children who run and jump too much suffer from ADHD. It is very important to realize that for a child to be diagnosed with ADHD, certain criterion has to be met with also called as the DSM criteria, before a child can be said to be suffering from it.

Nobody exactly knows what causes ADHD. Recent researches point out the causes could be either neurobiological or genetical. Certain chemical levels in the brain have been found low (dopamine -a chemical that sends messages to the part of the brain involved in attention, movement and motivation). Increased levels of heavy metals (lead) in the body is also seen in some kids .The kind of parenting given to the child has no role in the causation of this disorder, although bad parenting can influence the severity of this disorder.

Implication of ADHD can have far reaching effects, with the schooling of the child taking the biggest hit. Poor performance in school due to ADHD can lead to a hampered self esteem in the child .ADHD can also lead to learning disabilities, defiant behavior ,conduct disorder(anti-social behaviour,stealing ,fighting), anxiety disorders and depression .

Severe forms of ADHD are difficult to differentiate from milder forms of autism, a careful approach is necessary in diagnosing and treating such forms. Such severe forms affect the child?s normal mental development .for example speech and cognitive skills can be markedly affected in such cases.

Homoeopathy for ADHD

Homoeopathy for treatment of ADHD is now being considered as an effective form of treatment in the western society where the prevalence and awareness of this disorder is much more. This is more so because of the great side effects produced by the medicine used in conventional system.

The safety and the lasting effects of homoeopathic medicines is what makes it as an effective choice. Homoeopathic medicines do not produce any sedating effect on the child. Also the improvement gained during the treatment is lasting. While treating the symptoms of hyperactivity and inattentiveness, homoeopathic medicines promote the overall brain development too. Another important aspect in homoeopathic treatment is that homoeopathy sees every case of ADHD as an individual case .This means that the medicine prescribed would be on the basis of the individual symptoms shown by the child. This approach in homoeopathy, gives it an advantage of treating the disorder naturally and effectively.

  7. Hi All,

    All these problems are happening to the children:

    1. The tablets that we(women) take during pregnancy. (chemicals)
    2. The medicines that we take while breast feeding.(chemicals)
    3. The energy drinks like compla…boost….memory, brain power boosters (chemicals)
    4. Salt with Iodine (chemical)
    5. Genetically Modified Food(veg,meet, chicken,eggs, fish, fruits, etc.,)
    6. LCD/LED TV’s, mobiles, gadgets

    In the name of development, beauty, brain power, etc., we are just spoiling the health of Future Generation. India has to Go Back and follow our ancestors to be healthy and to have healthy kids.

    Please, Change urself and try to change people around u.

    Thanks,

    Respected Sir,
    My son is 8 years old.he can’t control his anger.always wants to play and wants to listen stories. In school when there is oral session he gives answers to every question but when there is time to write down he doesn’t want to write, only pipping in others work or distracts others. If we told him not do something he purposely and immediately does it. He can draw very nicely. Can swim very well without any fear.can do mallakhamb very well. He distracts very easily. In school always do fighting and never complete his writing work. Please recommend any homeopathy medicine can I give him
