More Difficult Kinds of ADHD
There are other kinds of ADHD that you should be aware of. There are no Winne the Pooh characters for these types, as the creator of these children's stories would never have created a character with these challenging, difficult traits. These types of ADHD can be very severe. They require significant treatment, and great patience on the part of the parents.
Bi-polar Disorder, or Manic Depression, must be ruled out. In fact Bipolar Disorder may be the likely cause when a child is diagnosed "ADHD" but acts like this.
The Temporal Lobes and ADHD Some people with ADHD can be very hard to live with. They can have gigantic mood swings, get very angry for almost no reason, and be nearly impossible to live with on a daily basis. The key to look for with this type of ADHD is anger outbursts for little or no reason...
People with decreased activity in the left temporal lobes can especially have problems with temper outbursts, aggressive behaviors, and even violence toward animals or other people.
Temporal Lobe ADHD is characterized by:
- Inattention, just like in other kinds of ADHD because during concentration there is a decrease in activity in the pre-frontal cortex;
- Being easily irritated or frustrated;
- Aggressive behaviors;
- Dark moods, big mood swings;
- Impulsivity;
- Breaking rules, in trouble a lot, in fights a lot;
- Defiant toward authority, disobedient toward parents and others;
- Can't get along with others, can be anti-social or just in trouble a lot;
- Often has terrible handwriting and problems learning;
- You expect him to be arrested at any time...
Individuals with this type of ADHD are often treated with a combination of stimulants, like Ritalin, and anti-convulsants.
For someone who wanted to try an alternative treatment approach, or an additional treatment approach, you could try:
- GABA (an inhibitory nerortransmitter) to act as an anticonvulsant and anti-anxiety agent,
- Phosphatidyl Serine (and other phosphatidyls), DMAE, Pregnenolone, and Ginko as memory enhancers to help with the learning problems
- and these people sometimes are helped by Ibuprofen in small doses.
- NO St. John's Wort or Hypericum, as it could make things worse.
Using the VAXA nutraceutical product line:
Two capsules of the ATTEND contain GABA (33mg), and DL-PA (16mg) for mood stabilization, plus L-Tyrosine (67mg), Ginko (33mg), Phosphatidyl Serine (0.5mg) and other phosphatidyls (200mg) and DMAE (33mg) and Pregnenolone (8mg) for learning enhancement. There are over 70 total ingredients in ATTEND to help with learning, performance, and mood.
Four capsules of NEURAN contain GABA (240mg), and DL-PA (32mg) for mood stabilization. Children might take less. Consult your healthcare professional. Please don't underestimate any situation that may involve violence or extreme anger. Use medications if you need to, stay in touch with your doctor, and rule out bi-polar disorder.
As you can see, using the Neuran along with the Attend can enhance the mood stabilization components without adding either St. John's Wort or Hypericum, which can make the problem worse. These two products together can also enhance learning and memory, and therefore school performance or work performance.
