ADHD: Symptoms, Causes, and Natural Homeopathic Treatments

What is ADHD?

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition where the brain works differently than neurotypical brains.
(REF NHS https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/adhd-adults)

It is a neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects the frontal cortex – the area responsible for “Executive Function.” Executive Function is a set of mental skills that helps you plan, concentrate, follow and remember instructions, multi-task and adapt to new situations. In some cases, this part of the brain may be underdeveloped or may have experienced trauma. While often diagnosed in childhood, it affects many adults, leading to difficulties with concentration, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.

If you are wondering if you have undiagnosed ADHD, you might notice struggles with Executive Function, including:

Working memory issues: Forgetting names or why you entered a room.
Difficulty following instructions or completing tasks.
Disorganization: Losing things, poor time management, and difficulty prioritizing.
Emotional regulation: Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or sensitive to rejection.
Internal Restlessness: While you may not run around, your mind might feel like it never stops.

These challenges can affect your daily work, relationships, and self-esteem. However, a diagnosis is not a label to confine you; it is a key to understanding yourself. There are many ways to support your mental growth, including holistic treatment for ADHD.

Recognizing ADHD Symptoms in Women

ADHD is often stereotyped as “naughty boy” behaviour, meaning ADHD in women is frequently overlooked or misdiagnosed. Women often present with inattentive symptoms rather than physical hyperactivity.

You may notice if you have ADHD, that you struggle in one or more of these areas. ADHD can affect your everyday life. It can affect your daily tasks, work, relationships, emotional well-being. You might struggle with time management, have difficulty concentrating, forget things, feel restless and challenged by social situations. This can lead to stress, anxiety and low self-esteem.

From this, you can see that being diagnosed with ADHD is significant. However, it does not confine you, and there are many things that can be done to support your mental growth and development, including calming ADHD with Homeopathy. Having the diagnosis is the key to making progress and you can have an holistic approach to ADHD treatment.

Can you treat ADHD with Holistic Therapy?

The short answer? Yes! Many people seek natural remedies for ADHD to work alongside conventional medication or to avoid the side effects of it. With holistic ADHD treatments you can naturally treat it, using homeopathy, herbal remedies and other alternative therapies.

A holistic approach to ADHD looks at the whole person, not just the symptoms.

Nutrition: Reducing inflammatory foods like gluten, sugar, and artificial colourings can help clear dysregulation in the frontal cortex.
Neurofeedback: This helps address imbalanced brainwave patterns.
Therapy: Talk therapy or EMDR can help build skills to manage daily life (“pills don’t give you skills”).
Supplementation: Focused on brain development and stress management.

OK, so let’s take a natural holistic approach to ADHD Treatment. Diving a little deeper, what are some specific options?

Top Herbal Remedies for ADHD

When exploring natural ways to treat ADHD, herbal medicine is a popular choice. While everyone reacts differently, studies suggest certain herbs can support focus and calm: (REF WebMD https://www.webmd.com/add-adhd/ss/slideshow-adhd-natural-remedies)

Ginkgo Biloba: Often linked to improving memory and mental sharpness.
Ginseng: A natural remedy linked to alleviating hyperactivity in the brain.
Chamomile: Known for producing a calming effect on both the mind and body.

These are just a few natural ADHD remedies. There are many more! Of course, as everyone reacts differently, what’s best for you may not work best for someone else.

How Homeopathy Helps ADHD?

As a homeopath, my approach is focused on calming ADHD with homeopathy. Homeopathy is a safe, gentle, and effective system of medicine that treats the root cause of the imbalance rather than just suppressing symptoms.

Here are a few common homeopathic remedies for ADHD:

Natrum Sulphuricum: This is often my top choice if the onset of symptoms is linked to a past head injury or trauma.
Coffea Cruda: Excellent for the “wired but tired” feeling. It helps calm a hyperactive mind, combats insomnia, and aids in racing thoughts.
Tarentula Hispanica: A great remedy for physical restlessness and impulsivity, acting on the nervous system to soothe agitation

I consulted with Kiran for 3 consecutive rounds and she helped me a lot better understand what I was going through and slowly addressing the various complex issues I had. Thanks a lot

Antonella Di Cillo

I worked with Kiran on her 1 to 1 marketing and business strategy program to support the growth of my homeopathic clinic. In 6 months the progress and the targets I have achieved by following her suggestions and under her guidance have been incredible! Not only from a business/revenue perspective but in the personal sphere. I would strongly suggest to anyone who is looking to learn how to run a successful business to work with Kiran. Her approach is warm and supportive yet highly professional and the wisdom she shares throughout the course is invaluable!

Pritesh

We have been attending clinics with Kiran for a few years now and I can attest it has made a huge difference. We have gone from having to take multiple doses of antibiotics due to tonsil and respiratory issues, to a much improved immune system and general health and wellness. We really appreciate the team’s wide knowledge on various health issues and the remedies suggested have a long-term benefit which has shown in our health.

Kiran - you demonstrate your knowledge and professionalism in all you do and your passion is inspiring!

HANNAH RICHARDS

Kiran really helped me during my pregnancy. I suffered with really bad nausea and vomiting with my first pregnancy and I didn't know how I could face it all again. But the remedies Kiran gave me really made a difference and helped me get through it. Plus her consultations are very helpful and she comes across so genuine and caring. It taught me that Homeopathy isn't just about taking natural remedies. It's the mind as well as the body and Kiran focused equally on these.

Arlene van Tonder

I have for many years suffered with a gut that just 'didn't feel or act right'. I found Healthy Homeopathy online and having never experienced homeopathy before you could say I was a little bit cautious. Kiran has been simply fabulous. From our first introductory call I felt completely at ease. She took the time to get to know me and work through understanding my symptoms and what healthy could be for me. The treatment is structured in a really logical way that helps Kiran work with you on progress and any tweaking that needs to take place. I feel 100x better than I have ever felt before and I feel like so much stress related to my gut is now a thing of the past. I would encourage you to reach out to Healthy Homeopathy – Kiran is AMAZING!

Leena Bhosle

Kiran is one of the kindest and the most patient practitioner. She diagnoses "to a T". I could see results straightaway for something that I was suffering for a few months. Would highly recommend her.

Karina de Souza

Kiran really took the time to identify and understand the cause of my husband and son’s allergies. She diagnosed and prescribed medication to help them manage their allergy problems. I highly recommend her to anyone who would like to try an alternative to allopathic medication. Her approach to your health is holistic. Thank you Kiran.

Dorothee Rubman

I started using Kiran when I couldn’t get the answers or assistance from my GP earlier this year. Kiran was very helpful in my online sessions, applying a very sensitive and sensible approach with great listening skills- i really appreciated our online sessions and got a lot out of them. The homeopathic meds helped me get back some of my mojo and to continue the ongoing improvements in my whole health. I thoroughly recommend Healthy Homeopathy and Kiran.
