Fast Track Facts on Side Effects of ADHD Medications
Posted by sleepyguy in Prescription Sleep Medicine on September 13th, 2009
I know a boy who was on several ADHD drugs for many years and he told me that he wished he had never taken them. This boy then went off the drugs because he was getting pretty bad migraines and nervous tics. He still had some of the ADHD classic symptoms such as hyperactivity and impulsiveness and felt that he had got himself back. But the ADHD medication side effects had robbed him of a happy adolescence.
Look at the warning labels on any of the well known ADHD drugs such as Adderall, Cylert, Ritalin and Vyvanse and you are most likely to be confronted with warnings about cardiac arrest, psychotic events, psychiatric problems and so on. There may be other warnings on the information sheet that might include loss of appetite, restlessness, irritability, mood swings, insomnia and hallucinations. It is true that any medication is going to have a long list of side effects but the ones caused by ADHD medications seem to be more alarming than most, especially as we are dealing with children’s brains that are developing and will go on developing until they are about 25!
The short term side effects of ADHD medication are listed but what about the long term effects? There is very little data about this which is quite alarming. We know from the warning boxes on these medicines that there could be long term effects on the developing brain but that is as far they go. They will not reveal what these effects are which I find appalling. Just think that Ritalin has been on the market for over forty years and we still do not know what the long term effects are !
Many parents are not really concerned though about ADHD medication side effects and they want a quiet life. They dedicate all their attention to trying to minimize the side effects of these drugs at home instead of thinking of the real behavior problems which the drugs are not going to resolve anyway! They are in for a rude awakening. They make sure that the tablets are given with food so that stomach aches and headaches can be avoided. They have to jump all sorts of hoops to make sure that healthy snacks are provided because of the side effects on appetite. Then they have to invent routines for going to bed to get over the awful insomnia problem. It just goes on and on !
Now if parents were to consider (without any bias) a homeopathic remedy for ADHD, they would learn quite a few things which they did not know about. The effects of these remedies , if combined with ADHD behavioral therapy, are just as effective as ADHD meds and there are no side effects and the health risks are non-existent. Choosing a remedy like this saves you loads of time which you can spend with your child and you need never worry about the awful side effects of ADHD medications which are so alarming.
Curing Phobias With an Irish Company
Posted by sleepyguy in Prescription Sleep Medicine on September 13th, 2009
If you saw the Paul McKenna TV Show on Sky (I Can Change Your Life, 2005), you’ll already know how quickly and painlessly phobias, addictions, compulsions, etc. can be cured using techniques from the Art & Science of Neuro-Linguistic Programming.
If you have a phobia or any of the problems listed below - or know someone who has - read on, this information could prove useful.
• addictions (alcohol, class A and lesser drugs, gambling, smoking, eating, sex, etc.)
• phobias (flying, spiders, dogs, cats, water, clowns, confined spaces, open spaces, lifts, escalators, driving, etc.)
• overwhelming emotions / unuseful states (depression, stress, fear, anger, guilt, sadness, anxiety, panic, etc.)
• indecision / procrastination
• lack of confidence / self-esteem issues
Here at New Learning Programs our clients are experiencing the following success: 9 out of 10 who come to see us for a problem (of the kind above) achieve their outcome in the first session!
Unlike other forms of therapy that we are aware of (hypno, psycho, or psychiatry, counselling, etc.) we are willing to offer you (after an initial free telephone consultation), depending on the complexity of your problem, a NO-FIX NO-FEE basis. Can we say fairer than that? We figure that if we continue to do this kind of work and do not get the results for the client it would be better for all concerned that we stop and go do something else. However, if we guarantee our work in this way and continue to get paid because clients get the results they were looking for, then everyone wins.
The various ‘therapists’ we know are, generally speaking, well-intentioned people. And to them we offer this challenge: Charge clients on a NO-FIX NO-FEE basis. If you’re good at what you do, you won’t have to worry about money. If you’re not, maybe you should go and do some other form of work that you are good at.
What is a Phobia?
The dictionary says that it’s an extreme fear of a particular thing or situation, especially one that cannot reasonably be explained. In short, it is an irrational fear. Humans are born with only two fears: loud noises and falling. All other behaviours are learned. Including phobias.
An Irish company suggests that for one thing, a phobia shows how amazingly fast our brain can learn a new behaviour. Sometimes, a single experience can be generalised into a behaviour that persists for years, or sometimes forever. But because the brain does learn so incredibly fast, it can also learn other, more useful behaviours just as quickly. Do you have a phobia? Spiders, snakes, dogs, cats, heights, flying, lifts, elevators, buttons, doctors, dentists, needles, social phobia, etc… are just a few common ones. They may seem very different, but practically all of them can be cured in the same way.
Take the case of doctors. Those who get sued for malpractice are not the one’s who make the mistakes, but the one’s who have ‘communicated’ in an unuseful way (lack of respect and rapport) towards a patient – or, at least, that’s the way the patient sees it. One of our highly-trained coaches would sit in on a few interactions between doctor and patients, and soon be able to determine where quick, easy (and malpractice suit saving) would be made.
3 Proven Treatments To Stop Armpit Sweating
Posted by sleepyguy in Prescription Sleep Medicine on September 13th, 2009
If you’re ready to finally put a stop to your relentless armpit sweating, then this article has some VERY effective treatments for you. I know what it’s like to have terrible pit sweat. I remember at its worst, I’d be wearing two undershirts stacked together underneath my dress shirts to work and STILL, the sweat stains soaked through. I’m happy to say I finally put my problem to rest using a combination of the treatments you’re about to learn here. You will too if you take action after reading. Let’s do it!
Now if your armpit sweating problem is as bad as mine was, you’re probably at this point reacting to the problem as opposed to taking action to prevent the problem. Let me explain…
Maybe you feel the sweat coming on and you excuse yourself to the nearest bathroom to pat your armpits dry with a paper towel or reapply another layer of deodorant. You might wear heavy clothes or layers to hide the pits stains. Or, perhaps you actually use garment pads to soak up the sweat when it occurs.
The treatments below take a more proactive approach. You’re going to learn how to condition your skin to sweat less, rather than learn how to block the sweat or hide the sweat better. These are long term cures that work cumulatively over time, so try them all out consistently for a week before experiencing the optimal results.
With that said, here’s the first treatment…
The Apple Vinegar Remedy - at night, apply apple vinegar or any other malt vinegar to your armpits. If you have armpit hair, trim it to a very short length. Let the apple vinegar air dry. It will saturate your armpit’s sweat pores, neutralizing odor causing bacteria and creating a drying effect.
Apple vinegar has astringent properties. It will condition your armpits to stay dry and sweat less overall. In the morning, just wash your armpits with soap and water as you normally would. The acid in the vinegar will be absorbed by your armpits overnight and protect you from sweating all day long.
The Baking Soda Treatment - Used in combination with a deodorant that’s high in aluminum chloride, baking soda could be your missing piece to the puzzle. It works as follows…
Baking soda is an alkaline and your body’s sweat is an acid. When the two mix, they create gas and the sweat is instantly evaporated. So it conditions your sweat to just dry up super fast. Here’s what you do. Mix a generous amount of baking soda with water until you have a thick paste. Paste the baking soda onto your armpits (if they’re clean shaven, this works best) and then sit with the treatment for 25 minutes. Afterwards, just wash off with water.
Do this for several days in a row and you’ll notice a HUGE difference. Now, your armpits might feel kind of rubbery after you wash off the baking soda. This is totally normal and I’m sure you’ll agree that rubbery feeling armpit skin is way better that sweat dripping, slime pits - ewww!
Botox - Botox injections are a surefire way to stop the excessive armpit sweating but it does come with a high price tag. Treatments can range anywhere from $700 - $1400 depending on how many places on the body you want to cure. Also, results aren’t permanent. They do last a while though.
Most people report that Botox stops the excessive sweating for about 6 months. So, if your severe armpit sweat is impacting your life that much (I know mine was pretty bad) and you have the extra money, Botox might be a realistic alternative for you.
Before you go running to the bank though to take out money for Botox, I want to save you some green. Afterall, we can all use some savings where we can these days.
