Sound like adhd but like possible autism too. Many of the kids with adhd love their tv, phone and video time with no way around it. Keep searching for your diagnosis, don't stop with adhd, it a great start but there is something else. Many of the folks here have sought the advise of therapist that could help.

Hi Jhen,

I will recommend to talk to her pediatrician and express your concerns. Do not jump to meds until she is fully evaluate.... Request therapies to see if it can help.

My son was recently diagnosed but prior to that I had my concerns and i started using essential oils and natural herbs.

Best of luck,

Does the oils

Work? How do you do that? I want to do it for my son. I did Mountain Dew and that works it calms him down.

I use a blend of lavender, viviter...rub onto bottoms of big toes, bottom of feet morning and night. I also do it behind his ears. It does clam him down and he likes the smell... ☺

Don't give any type of treatments if you are not quite sure what is going on. Talk to the pediatrician about any concerns. And remember, it is easier to focus on things you like to do than on things you have to do.

Hello Jhenny! Have you guys thought maybe taking her to a psychologist?
