Heart Health and ADHD Drugs

A woman in rabbi school came to my office. She said, “I do not know what life is like without drugs. I have been taking a stimulant since I was a child. Can you help me?”

Can you imagine what your life would be like if you spent 20 years on a stimulant? Can you image what damage the drug for ADHD has done to your heart, nervous system and body? Imagine taking a drug for ADHD for years.

Drugs of any nature are dangerous for children, especially stimulants. Whether you are 7 or 70 there is no doubt about the damage a stimulant can do to your heart.

Children who have behavior problems need discipline, not drugs.

Children with behavior problems need parents who show up and set healthy, safe limits for them to push against. The children need parents who are assertive, relaxed and emotionally strong.
