anything else? | ADHD Information

Hi great ADD and ADHD americans! ;)

What else can we do for ourselves than medications? I mean vitamins and stuff like that?

Take a look at the alternatives board. There is some scientific support for omega fatty acids and magnesium. This is all trial and error because there is little data to help you know how well some of these might work for you. Also, there is cognative therapy and coaching.

Hi:

I've tried meds and didn't work for me.  I have limited meds I can use because I have a bad heart and my doc didn't want me to take stimulants.

I am on cognitive therapy with a counselor and I am having a really good result from it.  I just started but I find I can begin with cope better.  I am still forgetful and need my bag of tricks to remember things and not to overwhelm myself but the therapy is definitely a plus.

Good luck.
