My ds, Jake is on high doses of Concerta and Wellbutrin which seem to have deminished effectiveness now. He is growing. I didn't want to increase his meds so I started him on a combo of grapeseed, pinebark, minerals, calcium and vit B's especially B12. He has been on this for about a week and a half. We give it to him when he gets up and when he gets home from school. He is still taking his meds also. I would like to eventually take him off them if I can. OK... so... after this short time I am starting to see a difference (fingers crossed). This week he has done his homework at about 7pm without any problems. He is also doing the extra credit stuff which he has NEVER done before! There are no arguments and he stays focused until he is done. At night he is not so obsessive as before. He is sleeping and eating well. The teacher said that in school he is starting to raise his hand and participate. He is also the last one to put his work away when told because he wants to keep on working!!! That blew me away. His behavior has always been good and that has not changed. I don't know if this is just a "good" week for him or if it is the suppliments. If it is a good week then it is the best week he has had since beginning school and he is in the second grade so that is saying a lot. I'll continue watching and hope the change remains for the better. ;D Sue ;D
