need recommendation for helping my son to stabilize moods

[Guest guest]

My 11 year old son (ADD, maybe Aspergers or Hyperlexia) is on several

supplements...Houston enzymes, probiotics, prescription anti-fungals, OLE for

OCD

symptoms, Gaba (6 days a week,) Natural Calm magnesium, and a morning compounded

supplement specifically for him with Vitamin C, B-6, P5P, Biotin & niacinamide.

His evening vitamin has Vitamin C, zinc, manganese, Vitamin E, Biotin,

niacinamide,

molybdenum, selenium and iron. He has CAL.MAG before bed and takes an Epsom

Salts

foot bath every night. He also gets Borage oil rubbed on his skin every night.

Recently he

started a larger dose of something called " Nia-C " which just increases his

amount of

niacinamide and Vitamin C beyond what is in his compounded supplement.

With everything he is taking, we still don't see any kind of pattern of him

being stable. He

can be great one day and a mess the next. Sometimes we tie it to diet (even with

enzymes,

the rare fast food visit can be a problem) and other times we have no idea what

could have

brought on his tantrum or severe bad mood. It generally lasts a few hours, and

often

occurs in the morning before school or on a weekend. But it can hit in the

evening as well.

There is a lot of crying and screaming and oppositional behavior.

My question is, does this ring a bell for anyone? Is there a supplement that

helped any of

you with similar issues? Our doc says next he plans to add either Methionine or

Carnitine

next. We tried Inositol for a few weeks but it kept him awake so the doc said to

stop it.

Does that mean it will never be an option for him again or just that the dose

may have

been too high?

Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated. I have started taking the

Natural

Calm magnesium myself after his tantrums to help me recover from being

emotionally and

physically drained. Just when he seems stable, one of these major tantrums hits.

He is a

wonderful boy and he is so drained himself after this happens. Any ideas for

anything that

would help?

Thank you all so much,
