How do you deal with hyperactivity?

I think you need a referral for a public one (and there'd be a waitlist). Private I'm pretty sure you can refer yourself.

Hi goddess, my DS was the same - generally ok but would go crazy and couldn't seem to control himself when he was in a hyper mood. He has largely grown out of it now (he is 5yrs). He still gets the hyperactivity but can generally control himself to stop games that are starting to hurt us etc. He is sensitive to certain foods but they are probably additives (I have only isolated the whole food so far and not the individual ingredient). But I would second what mad said in looking at other foods. It is a myth that food sensitivities are all from additives etc. Some kids are sensitive to other foods that are healthy such as particular fruit. I agree that checking out failsafe might be a good option to rule it out. Hope this helps. I do understand how frustrating it can be as that is exactly what DS was like (and is still after eating certain foods!).
