The Stigmatic Effects of ADD/ADHD, Prescription Medication

Children and teens that are diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorders often have the added stigma of being told they will not succeed like other children unless they “shape up”. But ADD and ADHD are real illnesses, not mere disobedience or disinterest. They are malfunctions of the normally natural, balanced neurotransmitters which are responsible for sending signals between the brain and the body’s functions.

The longer the young person goes without being able to correct their uncontrollable symptoms, the more discouraged and depressed they may become. Unfortunately, the current prescription medications handle the symptoms, not underlying causes, and do so with more than a few detrimental side effects. In TV ads, we hear that depression medications can cause even more suicidal tendencies in teenagers. Since their Reticular Activating System (the center of consciousness) is involved, at the very least they may walk around in a too-sedated state from the medicine.

But their depression, sadness (we must distinguish passing sadness from the onset of depression) and feelings of worthlessness or hopelessness can last for long periods and begin to take over their lives. They begin to:

lose interest in activities they once enjoyed
self-sabotage relationships with loved ones and friends
turn to drugs or alcohol to mask the pain
complain of headaches (they are real) and avoid school or homework

Get Safe, Natural Help before Depression Escalates Further

Attend does not to rely on a “symptom eraser”. There is a task that must be accomplished rather than just soothing symptoms – the brain has 100 billion neurons that must be developed and 900 billion supporting cells! Attend contains a combination of homeopathic nutrients; ingredients that actually address the AD individual’s neurochemical deficiencies to allow replenishment of their “neural hardware” and the brain’s Reticular Activating System – which also controls memory and learning – to work toward functioning properly.

There are various forms of adolescent depression, such as dysthymia - a mild but chronic depression which interferes with a teen's ability to enjoy life, and cyclothymia, a mild form of bi-polar disorder where the mood swings from depression to high energy. For information on these and more, see our article, Teenage Depression.

Attend can help restore your pre-teen, teen or blossoming young adult to their former fun-loving, capable selves without the side effects of prescription drugs.
