      It was also recommended too! But I don't think DS will want to smell it for too long. I got a dolphin pendant and was supposed to just drip a few drops on it and put either in his bag or something. Have not gotten to that either. One step at a time.

      Try the foot massage. I'm assuming the EO you have can double up for that? I'm not very familiar with EO actually so I googled and bought EOs that was described for massages.

      Thank you so much, will try apply on his foot..^_^..

      I can't find vetiver in young living, where did you get yours?

      Got mine from http://www.milagrotrading.com.

          hi

          EP told me that they have concluded that my boy is ADHD (combine type)
          Recommend to take Ritalin (any feedback on this medication)?
          Alternative
          BCI Programe - Brain Computer Interface (anyone has gone through this)

          Teachers strongly recommend Ritalin…
          Yes, pop a pill to stop the destruction…easy way out.
          But all the possible side effect making me think if i should risk it

          Any Advise

          EA

              I would try other methods (eg. behavioural training etc) before using medication. Even if you choose medication, you might want to use it for limited periods, although the transitions into and out of medication could be problematic.

                      Hi

                      Is ADHD curable or would it improve over time when the child get older?

                      Does ADHD affect social interaction with others ?

                      Having ADHD would it affect child’s academic?

                        The underlying trait will always be there, but the child can be taught and trained to manage himself and develop better self-control. Paying attention for extended periods will always be tougher for him than others.

                        ADHD can affect social interaction if the person cannot concentrate long enough to listen to another person, I guess. I have encountered people who are always jumping from one thing to another, and it is hard to carry on an extended conversation.

                        Academic performance required paying attention in class and staying on task to complete work or studies, so yes, ADHD can affect academic work, especially at higher levels.
