Asperger's Syndrome has recently come under the umbrella of Autism Spectrum Disorder. This syndrome usually affects the social skills of the patient, most heavily. The patient may seem normal and even intelligent at first glance. But on closer interaction, several social skill problems will come to the fore including an obsessive focus on certain topics and issues. Repetitive behaviour is also a part of this disease.

I hope you're keeping well. I understand that you have been diagnosed with adhd and are currently taking ritalin, but it's not giving you the desired results.
There are indeed other amphetamine-based medications available in india, such as adderall, but I would advise caution when considering such alternatives. While they can indeed be effective for some individuals, they also come with their own set of side effects, and their misuse can lead to serious health complications.

Dear Mr. lybrate-user
sorry to note your kid's condition. But you obviously try good authentic homeopathy treatment which can cover physical and mental developments. But behavioral therapy should go alongside. It may take time, but we should give utmost attempt to make the kid self dependent in future.

Dear member, I understand your struggle and appreciate your patience. An individualised homeopathic treatment helps tremendously for add, adhd and pandas in children as well as adults. A definite positive change is witnessed when a single medicine is given that matches the patient. A thorough homeopathic assessment lasting 2 hours is required after which the case is worked upon based on the core homeopathic principles and a treatment is charted. Regular assessments are done to modify treatment a...more

Do not stop the medication abruptly. It will have bad withdrawal symptoms. With the advise of Dr. Step by step reduce the medicine. You may tell your complaints mentioned here to Dr. Too. Meanwhile, please start doing yoga, and go for cognitive behavioural therapy for anxiety. Yoga, meditation and therapies work out beautifully to come out of this situation. All the best.

There is no proven science or method that can do that, it is all waste of time and money frankly. I strongly suggest to spend time with your child if you want to know what is going on in their hear and mind - it can be eating together, walking, watching tv. It will not happen in 1 day or 1 week, be patient it will happen when he/she starts talking to you and start sharing what is in his/her mind and heart.
