Treatment Abuse, Behavior Modification, Thought Reform > Hyde Schools
PLEASE HELP!!! Should I send my son to Hyde???
forjessinits:
I give my son Super Snooze at 7:30 pm. ADD can = sleep disorder. A huge lack of sleep makes it harder for them to concentrate, sit still, and behave.
Super Snooze is an all natural combination of melatonin, and chamomile, and other herbs, that induce sleep and help you stay asleep. Within 3 weeks, his behavior was a complete turn around at school. I also give him a fish oil with the highest amount of DHA in it. DHA has shown to improve the symptoms of ADD in many clinical trials, adding to concentration, as well overall benefits any one would receive. I get them at CVS. I let him slide on the Super Snooze on weekends. Im really glad I was told about this. I couldnt take the conferences, and remarks from teachers anymore. Michael made 4 A's, a B, and a D, last grading period. He was on honor roll the 1st 2 sessions. Its not a drug so patience is a virtue, and theres no too much really of the fish oil. The gummy ones taste the best to him and dont give him fishy burps. Its a bit of trial and error, but daily in a month or so, you will see results. Ive also heard that Mellisa Root works, however I am unable to afford it. My advice: Ditch the shrink and go to a chiropractor. Alignment works miracles and they are generally homeopathic healers.
I was put in a residential treatment facility. I would never be able to put my own children through what I had to endure in secret until my parents got wise. Its had long lasting effects on me that arent positive. Dr's push what pharmacuetical companies make. They do not tell you about diet and suppliments. You buying vitamins does get them those vacations and kick backs.
My elsdest son was put on Ritalin, and 7 years later, it was just taken away with no weaning. He turned to what he could find on the street to feel 'normal'. Im blessed to stars that it was pot, and not crack. However he tried lots of things before settling down. He has relayed to me what he couldnt at 13 since, and it sounds like hard withdrawals. Knowing better this time, theres no way im putting Michael on amphetamines. Mitch was a zombie that couldnt even get excited at Christmas on Ritalin. I will always regret that.

Thank you very much for this education. I am going to look into these possible alternatives. I love the chiropractic exercise, it makes sense.
Thanks
Samara:
Can you explain how chiro alignment helps ADHD. Need help and prefer all natural.
hgrant:
i hesitate to respond, only because of the dark place in my life created by the psychopaths at this institution. a friend has called me at his wits end because his son, 17, is about to be expelled from another private institution for misbehavior...nothing violent, but anti-social, you might call it. Defacating from dorm windows, defiance, refusal to follow any instructions...etc. You either know the behavior i am referring to or you do not. Now a wilderness program is being suggested and my nightmares return. This past February was the fourth anniversary of my son's suicide in the basement. Prior to that he had spent some time at Hyde, perhaps a year or less and whatever problems he had to begin with were so exacerbated by his experiences there that i have always linked the two. I couldn't say it was direct because there was some time between when he was thrown out of hyde and when he shot himself, but i believe to this day that the actions of the head of that school and several of its psycho caretakers were direct contributors. i can't go into details about what happened at hyde except to to say that the profound, deep, dishonesty practiced by the staff, many of whom i am sure are unqualified to be called such, the cultism, the terrorism inflicted on already disturbed children would result in long prison terms to the practioners thereof in any reasonable society. Hyde, in my opinion, is a nightmare, a mental torture chamber created by a psychopaths and created to breed acolytes...Do not send your son to Hyde. If you have already done so and he wants out; do not believe the staff at Hyde. Their entire purpose functions just as the street soldiers of Scientology function to recruit and impress more members. If you want to discuss this personally, face to face (figuratively speaking) perhaps there is some way to arrange this, though I don't know how we might accomplish this. If I were a praying man, I would pray for you and your son; as it is, I can only avail you of the benefit of my experience there and the terrible consequences one faces when allowing these kinds of individuals to oversee the psychological development of a child, especially one already having difficulty in the world.
Misled:
I completely agree with HGrant and his assessment of Hyde Schools. I recently saw where they are advertising themselves as a "college prep school." Hyde does not prepare students for college. In fact it was very difficult to get our child back into a mainstream school after attending Hyde.
My educational consultant felt Hyde was a good placement for my child who needed motivation in school. He has since stopped sending any of his clients to Hyde and I obviously took my child out as soon as I discovered what type of place Hyde was. The majority of Hyde's students have drug and behavioral problems, although they are ill prepared to deal with either one of these issues. Most of the "teachers" at Hyde are either former students or parents of former students who themselves are dealing with major psychological issues. I strongly caution you about Hyde based on my family experience there. I saw many sickening things take place at Hyde and personally believe it damaged my child more than helped him. It was an experience that we try to forget. Hyde operates very much like a Cult and encourages the students and parents to solicit donations from outside sources in the community as well as bullying you into giving more dollars to the school. If you don't, then you are considered "not committed" and will be pressured from all those around you. What I saw at Hyde was very similar to brainwashing both the parents and kids. They prey on the weakest. Those weakest swear by Hyde similar to members of a Cult. It's frightening to say the least.
Save your money, keep your child at home, and look for a good family psychologist. Most children work out their problems eventually. I was misled, but thankfully I did not have the same outcome as HGrant. I am very sorry for you and your loss. I can understand how Hyde can send someone over the edge.
