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.

Hello
My six year old is showing difficulties in school and home.
He has an English speaking father, Estonian mother and is educated in France.
He has a good grasp of all three languages.
He is good at problem solving and he can retain information quite quickly… poems and songs and other visual and audible info.
The problem is his attention span when using text books.
He will often wander, and become quite stressed when we try and teach him to read.
He does not want to answer the question or even attempt to give a reply.
He is learning simple syllables at the moment and he just does not grasp it.
If there are five words and word number one begins with MA, he will eventually get it.
However, on word two, it can start with LA, but he will not make that difference and will say MA.
His mother and I separated 2 years ago but we are in daily contact and I have visited and stayed with them many times since.
In general the mother and I get on but there have been disputes witnessed by my son.
Like I said, he has good memory skills and is very humorous… he has a good skill for mimicking and making observational jokes.
Its hard to know what to think because as much as we need him to advance, its hard because we see his distress when he does not comprehend what we are asking for and he just seems to look to us to answer the question for him. its as if he is pretending to try…
I have a 23 years old son who have problems coping with his school work he has been in and out in diiferent schools including special school but still he is not coping it came to the point where he wanted to go study in a different province cause the system failed him. One Friday he packed all his belongings and hitch hiked to a different province with no money on his way after reaching his destination he was robbed everything by a man who gave him lift. He spend 3 nights at the police station hoping theyll drive him back home but he couldnt find help until he hitch hiked again finding his way back home. Now he found a job via newspaper article as a waiter now the problem the supervisor called to inform me that he is not coping and cant follow instruction and gets easily frustrated and gets tired and wants to do things his way now the employer is ending the contract cause he is not coping and where he is he must interact with people and he needs constant supervision and they are concern about his well being cause he cant keep up. At home he cant clean after his mess, dont take instructions easily, cant complete tasks, no friends, reserved, does things in his own way and wont listen. Im afraid that one day he will find himself in deep trouble or get injured cause whatever that his mind tells him to do he does the how he doesnt worry about that. Ive took him to therapist, psychologist, neurologist and pediatrician when he was in primary they put him on retalin but he lost eppetite he was loosing weight ive took him to the GP who said i must stop giving him the pils cause if i was poor i was not going to afford these then what was going to happen to him? He said he will out grow this condition but he is 23 years now he feels behind and left out cause kids at his age have graduated some working and he is battling. Im afraid with the temper he might loose it cause he is now depressed. I dont know where to go, PLEASE HELP!
