Eating disorders disproportionately impact teens with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) 12 – and we don’t fully understand why. A growing body of research links ADHD to a higher incidence of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder during puberty and adolescence – a time when a mix of factors, including social media use, can contribute to negative body image and low-self-esteem.

Q: “My teen daughter recently told me that she ‘feels fat’ and is unhappy with her body. How do I respond in a way that won’t make her even more body conscious?”Your child feels negatively about her body for the same reason so many teens do: She has no doubt picked up on the fact that our culture sadly values smaller and thinner bodies, and she is comparing herself to others.

“Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness.” ~Marianne Williamson

Life is not easy, and what makes it even harder is being raised by a narcissistic parent. While it is difficult when you are growing up with a narcissistic parent, it’s just as difficult after you’ve moved forward and grown past childhood and into adulthood.You see, narcissistic parents tend to shape how we interact with the world into adulthood. Of course, many of the things we do as children of narcissists aren’t even likely something that you are linking to your childhood.

“Sit with it. Sit with it. Sit with it. Sit with it. Even though you want to run. Even when it’s heavy and difficult. Even though you’re not quite sure of the way through. Healing happens by feeling.” ~Dr. Rebecca Ray

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends treating ADHD in children and adolescents with FDA-approved medications, plus parent training in behavior modification and behavioral classroom interventions. Likewise, research confirms that “stimulant medications are most effective, and combined medication and psychosocial treatment is the most beneficial treatment option for most adult patients with ADHD.” Still, many individuals seek to augment their ADHD treatment plans with natural therapies ranging from nutrition and vitamins and herbs and fish oil.“Parents and adults see me either because the ADHD medication isn’t doing the job, or they want more improvement and can’t increase the dosage without increasing side effects,” says Richard Brown, M.D., associate clinical professor of psychiatry at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, and co-author of the recent book How to Use Herbs, Nutrients, and Yoga in Mental Health Care.Here are 10 of the most popular natural ADHD remedies — including foods, ADHD supplements, and herbs — and research findings for each suggesting whether adding them to your treatment plan might unlock better focus, attention, and motivation.Keep in mind that all ADHD treatment decisions should be made in consultation and coordination with a licensed medical provider.Poor nutrition can cause a child or adult with ADHD to become distracted, impulsive, and restless.

“The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself.” ~Maya Angelou

The older I get, and the older my kids get, the more I realize how much I should or could have done differently. One thing that has been on my mind, is the words that I chose to say and how often I said them.If I could go back, there are so many things I would have done differently. There are so many things I would have said more often.

We often think of children as having it easy- I mean, after all, what is so stressful about being a child? Well, as it turns out, when you think about it, being a child is pretty overwhelming.Think about it: the world is brand new, they have almost zero control over their lives, and their brain isn’t 100% developed. The world is a pretty chaotic and scary place when you are small and have little choice over what happens in your life. With that said, when life becomes complicated, and your little one needs help navigating through their big emotions, what do to? I’m glad you asked.

Parenting is a tough, yet rewarding job, and it most certainly helps to have a ‘village.’ However, there are times when someone else steps into parent your child a little too much, so it’s easy to become offended when someone else tries to step in and parent your child.If you find that when someone steps in and tries to overstep their position in your child’s life you become offended, you might question if your reaction is the right one. As parents, it’s our human nature to protect our kids and defend our parenting.

Usually, when you think of four-letter words, it’s likely you are thinking about swear words. However, in this case, there are some four-letter words that are bad words, just not in the way you would think.When it comes to kids, words are quite powerful. You might say something that should have been taken with a grain of salt, but to your child, those words will stick with them forever.

While many parents may fight against having a consistent routine, there are a million reasons why consistency not only works but provides amazing results. At the end of the day, children are going to respond much better to certain situations, when it is a daily habit.Hear me out: kids already feel powerless over their lives. They don’t have much say in what they can or cannot do, and life can be stressful on a little brain.

As parents, we are tasked with a pretty important job, part of which is to help provide emotional support to our children. Our daughters, most especially, need our help more than ever, and making sure to give the right support can make all the difference in the world.A major portion of this task is providing the support that they need. Sometimes, the support that they need, may not be the support that we think they need.
