Hey, thanks for that link Candace. I actually have a few of the things on the list of things they can treat with EEG. Including what the OP is dealing with, though I'm only ADD, and don't honestly even believe in the "Hyperactivity" part, IMO, that's just trying to medicate the result of a combination of kids being kids and too much sugar in their diet. Rather than eliminate the sugars and for the rest of it, let kids be kids.
Anyways, I used to be at times hyperactive and at times hyper depressed and lethargic, I was officially diagnosed ADHD, but as I said, I've never believed that crap about hyperactivity. I've also been officially diagnosed as "likely" to be Aspergers, but in that case I don't disbelieve in the notion itself, but only in my diagnosis. My symptoms align more with a variety of other different disorders all stemming from the original problem of being trans and suffering severe dysphoria from it.
My mother pushed for the Aspy diagnosis since I was still under her thumb at the time and I got stuck with it because whoever she took me to either wanted to make that diagnosis and she just took me to someone who wanted to make that diagnosis, or couldn't fight my mother's highly persuasive nature. Either way, they officially fall under my quack book, which they already HAD, since they were a psychiatrist, they just confirmed by pre-bias by diagnosing me something I'm not.
If I ever get insurance I think I'll be asking my psychologist about it, there's an EEG treatment provider in my city already, so as long as I can get access financially, I already have ready access physically.
