hyperactivity

[Guest guest]

Sara,

We found

with Tyler that it was a sensory issue (he also has SID). The only way he could

deal with all the stimulation around him was to be so active that he then didn’t

notice it (which also exacerbated his AS symptoms). As long as he could keep

going at top speed, he didn’t have to deal with all the external sensory input

or the anxiety it created. We didn’t realize this was the case until after he

went on some anti-anxiety meds (at the age of 14!) and all of a sudden, he was

able to slow down enough to observe some of the “triggers” and find alternate

ways of dealing with them. We didn’t realize how full his life was of “triggers”

or “stressors” until he was finally able to slow down enough to identify them!

Anyway, it is really nice to not have him bouncing off of everyone and

everything around him (yes, he had major trouble identifying his own space!) I

hope this helps!

~hugs~

hyperactivity

What has worked for those of you with hyperactive

kids? We're trying different things with my son and

are seeing some good results but he's so hyperactive

that it's a problem most of the time, especially in

the evening. His psychiatrist said she's never seen a

kid that's so hyper.

I think sometimes (maybe all the time) it's a form of

agitation or anxiety. I've noticed that during

transition times when we're leaving the house that he

gets very hyper and it's so hard to get him ready to

go anywhere. He doesn't like to go anywhere and

always wants to stay home.

Any advice?

Thanks,

Sara

This could be a result of many things. I have the same problem with

my son. He is five and he seems to be hanging from the ceiling

rafters if you know what I mean. We have tried every stimulant/non

stimulant AD/HD drug out there and nothing works. In fact, it makes

him 100% worse. Certain foods will trigger hyperactivity. One thing I

have found is any foods or especially drinks with red dies in them

will make him crazy. Also, apple juice makes him crazy. He becomes

very overstimulated at times as well and he gets wound up so a simple

brushing technique calms him down. My son is very high anxiety so he

also takes Prozac for that and I have seen a tremendous reduction of

hyperactivity with that. At night he doesn't sleep so his doctor

added a very small dose of Clonodine to his regimen and I haven't

slept better now than in the past month! Its been a blessing. I hope

this helps.

Are you talking about my son???

If you find answers, let me know. My son is extremely hyper, I won't

medicate him for it, and he hates to leave the house...if he does, he gets

really hyper (more hyper than at home, which is already a lot) and I end up

sorry I made him leave.

Can I add that "vanillin" an artificial flavoring for vanilla makes my son really off the wall. I thought at first people were nuts when they talked about dyes and artificial flavorings but I can tell when he has vanillin, it is in a lot of things. We buy sundrops now instead of m & ms. Health food stores carry them, they are chocolate like m & ms but use only real colorings (beet juice for red) and no vanillin.

Having a regular schedule...can help - but I would still throw in

some surprises - since that how the world works. Depending on your

child learning style determines how it can be delivered. I'm very

auditory, so I like to say what my schedule. My son can tends to be

like that to. Other people are more visual - so charts might work

better.

Transitioning phrasing can help. In five minutes, we will wrap up

task A and move on to Task B. Then time to finish task A, so we can

do task B. Good we are finished with task A, so we can do task B.

A trampoline may help with some of the hyperactivity. My son (10) has a mini one in the basement and when he gets hyper I have him jump for various periods during the day. He will soon tire and go to bed.

My son also gets very hyper when he gets excited. You can always hear him banging around when he is watching something on TV or a video and gets excited. O/T also told me he craves deep pressure which means he likes to crash and bang. He likes to throw himself on the floor, crash into the walls. When he does this it's time for him to get on the trampoline.

Can you imagine what my life was like when we lived in an apartment :0)

My son use to do that when he was like 4 and 5.

He use run into the arm of the sofa and bounce off all the time, I didn't even remember that until now! I swear I remember one more thing ever day it seems!

i love to tell this story:

when I took bethany to the psychiatrist for the first time, she spent the hour doing summersaults off of his overtuffed office chair.

Yeah, she was hyperactive! It didn't take a doctor to figure that one out!

Beth was always a climber, from 7 months old on. She used to climb up the back of the recliner at 7 months. I have pictures. I meant to post them but I can't find them. When I do, I will. She was always climbing chairs, boxes, little kids' tables, the diaper changing table. She RAN everywhere. Beth also used to run around the house on all fours like a dog ALL the time....when she was young. She also had this thing where she would lay on her back and "bicycle" into the air. Working off all that energy.''

She still runs a lot through the house, even at 16. And she eats SO fast too.....

As many others have said dont begin supplements more than 2 in one week at the most because if you have aproblem you wont know what it is.

One other thought about calcium Citrate... Citrates good for oxalate problems if taht is why you have chosen citrate formof calcium.. It will also cause constipation so good if your child is prone to dairrhoea but not good alone if your child prone to constipation.

Oh you poor little bean, having been at this for 6 years I so understand what you are going through.... I know it is very frustarting but we are still having problems with supplements because has such bad gut probs and I know that the only way is so very slowly so that if you ahve any problems you will know what it is causing the problem.

Does your child have bowel problems too?

Good Luck

Sorry what is an oxalate problem?

In a nutshell, compunds in lots of foods mainly plants which ahve been noted to cause probs in some kids with autism. For example,increased urination etc... There is a group called trying low oxalates on which are concerned with this. Citrates bind oxalates so when you lower oxalates in the diet you then introduce Ca and Mag citrate to bind free oxalates and thats it basically...

>>>>Can you stop for a few days and then try again with a smaller amount. You could try oral B1 also.

We persited for 10 days and then stopped when we had a very pale poop even though Sam was taking lots of Taurine and some Milk Thistle whihc is what Andy Cutler warned us about using it. We didn;t see any gains at all. We do use Oral B1

>>Now then, maybe will chime in and properly explain if she is reading. TTFD - Vitamin B1, sent me some stuff about how B1 helps detox the sulphites and that can make you red like a phenol reaction. Hmmmmmm

I forgot about the calcium causing problems for more folks these days it seems.

The flavoured Eye Q causes problems for some

I am sure he will bounce back very quickly, somethig there was doing something, and it might not necessarily be a bad thing if it was detox reaction type of thing.

As much as I personally don't like TTFD, my mummy gut reaction to the reactions you describe and the in between ++++ would be to try that one first when you go again, tiny smidgen FWIW

I am lining up many clues for Sam at the moment. Little tidbits on all this brain draining Yasko stuff the super smart peeps post about and rembering all sorts of little things that I should have written down ages ago.

I used to take every small setback/.reaction as a personal error and tried move on and forget about them note them down them which would have been the smart thing to do.

My guess is that perhaps starting the 3 things at the same time is too much. Luke has got hyperactive when we have given too many supps at the same time. The only way we can give supps to Luke is one at a time, in very small doses, gradually build up to full dose and then on to the next supp.

Perhaps you need to start one at a time - at least then you know which one is causing him problems. Good luck.

Sorry what

is an oxalate problem? Tom is prone to diarrhoea but because of constipation, I thought. He used

to take EYE-Q a while back and was fine but now we also rub in borage oil and rub

in ‘good oil’ and give him CLO. We were giving him NN fish oils but I wanted to

try swapping him back to eye q as his autistic eyes are getting worse and worse

and had disappeared when he was taking eye q. the TTFD we started just because

it arrived that day in the post but of course you’re all right – it’s too much

at once.
