He's currently on several medications not only for this, but also for asthma, allergies & eczema. I am looking for advice on what to do next. I would like to see him off most if not all meds.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Lots of studies show the effectiveness of essential fatty acids, like Nordic Naturals, and pycnogenol or grape seed extract for adhd. Ocd can often be helped by inositol. IMO, you are right to be concerned about the rx adhd/ocd medications as there is also some research that says it does kill brain cells and is irreversible, in addition to the depression/suicide rates. [ ] adhd/odd please help me! school is about to start. the more i read about those meds, the more terrified i am. the non-stim. that i was about to switch to, apparently causes depression and suicide. i want to get a hair test but still not enough $$$. i am looking for supplements or something natural to try in the meantime.
