I know of so many people who benefit from natural products, that I would try just about anything before medicating. That's just me. Seizures scare the heck out of me, and like Oia, they say Hanna is also at risk for them. Keep us informed tho! jennoharahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15450056329789727278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4641518796258733974.post-43776406714626279392012-11-17T15:20:23.824-08:002012-11-17T15:20:23.824-08:00for him- not that he's talked about.

Fast/slow metabolism etc.<br />If you decide to start the medication- try a long weekend or other time when you guys can watch her...your gut and knowing your daughter will let you know if it is worth it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4641518796258733974.post-43549367317462934302012-11-16T16:13:40.737-08:002012-11-16T16:13:40.737-08:00Anon,

Any other negatives?

We removed nitrates and food coloring -especially RED- from his diet- resulting in moderate improvement. One sunday we let him have "weekend" cereal-frootloops- and his sunday school teacher asked us to never do that again- then we enrolled him in karate which helped with focus and being comfortable in his own skin. When he was a jr in highschool he asked for more help- so we took him to the most reputable psychiatrist we could find and he started adderall. He does not like how it makes him feel when it wears off and avoids taking it unless he knows it will really help him (test or prolonged focus). Every kid is different. hope this helpsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4641518796258733974.post-62383407283593791592012-11-16T11:55:50.340-08:002012-11-16T11:55:50.340-08:00Hey, I am a frequent reader but never comment.

If you want a tiny perspective on what the med feels like (very different from Oia's case) just let me know! Meghanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06303980747012215968noreply@blogger.com
