I don’t know what the medication not working for you might mean but I have heard of ADHD symptoms caused by food allergies/intolorances. If the medication isn’t working maybe a diet change and (if you can keep it up) a food/symptom journal would be beneficial. There are a few standard ADD diet recomendations (reduce sugar, refined carbs, trans fats, processed foods). Though if they aren’t enough you could try an elimination diet (eliminate everything but the lowest allergenic foods) slowly adding foods in one week at a time and noting any change in your symptoms. If you have shared custody, I’d suggest starting while you don’t have your son as the first few days (as you detox) can be pretty irritable.
If your symptoms are severe, It might be helpful to find someone (holistic nutritionist or natural health practicioner) to guide you through. They can do the organisation/ menu planning for you and you’d just follow along.
Also I’ve heard a lot of positive experiences about low carb diets on ADHD symptoms. And a lot of OPINIONS that they don’t work or are unhealthy (though as of yet no bad EXPERIENCES). I’m researching this right now actually in a different thread. I know it has worked for me in the past and am curious how to get the bast results…
Good luck, I hope you find the answers you’re looking for
