Herbal stimulant for ADHD? |
|
Because I'm not keen on keeping the pharma companies rich, are there half-decent herbal solutions for ADHD?

1. You could maybe try Bach flower. |

They make Bach flower remedies for virtually everything. I bet they would have one for ADHD. I tried "Rescue Remedy" for immediate relief during stressful moments and to my utter surprise it actually helped. I'm skeptical about alternative and herbal treatments but I'm getting more open to them because I swear it worked. I got it from an organic food store.
If that doesn't help, and you really do suffer from ADHD, you might want to consider going on a pharmaceutical drug for it, even if you're helping make the drug companies rich. Perhaps some people are able to live with ADHD without it affecting their quality of life. But the people I've known in my life with it have had marked impairments in either their social, personal, or professional lives to the point where it clearly affected their well-being overall. Medication has helped. A lot.
