A six-year-old boy with temper tantrums. His mother and grandmother are with him to keep him in check. He has a strong gaze, avoiding eye contact. He is very hyperactive and impulsive, with poor concentration. In class, he often touches other children, hangs around them, and wraps his arms around their necks. He has always been like this: "I say I want it, and then it happens." Other children have to do things his way. Both the child and his mother come across as very vital; they have strong personalities, with open faces and intense eyes. They are probing but unyielding. Neither seems impressed by the constant power struggle between the two of them. When playing rough, he is very aggressive. His attitude is, "If I want it, then I want it." When his mother is more irritable or emotional, his behavior is worse. When the atmosphere is good, he is calmer. He sleeps very well. When the TV is on, he sits still. The temper tantrums occur, for example, over brushing his teeth: kicking, hitting, biting, swearing, etc. During the vacation, it happened about every other day. He is the oldest child, the second pregnancy (indicating overlap with the mother: as a child she was aggressive too). He needs positive reinforcement and has to hear that he’s doing well. Last year, during a sugar-free period, things were manageable. A mosquito bite gives him an allergic reaction with a swollen cheek and wrist. He occasionally gets colds, and until the age of 4, he was short of breath at night and had ENT issues. He eats well. Toilet training: there are occasional accidents. In general, he is cheerful. Otherwise, there is anger and frustration; he looks very angry, screams a bit, and spits. Previously, he could panic at night, becoming very upset, unable to explain why. He does well with animals. Things go well at the babysitter’s as long as he gets attention. His mother is in a leadership position; she is a dreamer, and others wonder if she is fully present. If she is restless or rushed, he reacts to it. He does his schoolwork differently, not according to the instructions, perhaps because he finds them too difficult. He doesn’t have much energy when running; he was slow to learn to speak. If you ask him something kind or positive, he will do it.He's very fond of "touching" children, to the point of annoyance; he can't stop. But his father has that nature too; at first, it really bothered me (his mother says). Other children say, "he's bullying," but he seeks contact clumsily. He talks very loudly, a very loud voice when he's busy. Constantly repeating the same words, parroting quickly, restless. He hears everything, sees everything, remembers everything. After Kola nitida, he's calmer for months and starts talking more. The anger remains, and after a year, it starts to increase again. There are moments of "war" at home, when something isn't allowed, even when he's being very sweet. He can get very frustrated, shaking, or screaming with anger. He holds back, or he explodes. This usually happens when something happens that he doesn't like, or when his mother isn't very patient. He demands—no, he demands—a lot of attention. At school, he also kicks and hits on the days when things aren't going well. Speech therapy: he has a sensory processing disorder, but he is also sensory-seeking. Upon examination, there was some fluid behind his ear. He is very sensitive to the atmosphere, like his mother, for example, when he gets her period. With grandma, there is constant fighting.
Food colorings, sugar, and chocolate cause restlessness and aggression.
AnalysisMalvales: highly nonverbal, sensitive to the atmosphere, remarkable use of voice, strong sense of touch, sensing the environment and the people around him, suppressing emotions and anger worsens, behavior depends on his mother's emotions.
Phase 6: bullying, not being appreciated, this fits with the
Byttneriaceae.
The severe allergy, the aggression, putting himself forward, seeing himself as the center of attention, always being right, and the panic at night are all known to be associated with chocolate. The ingredient cacao already overlaps with the plant Abroma cacao, and the similarities are strongly evident in the medication.
Prescription:
Chocolate MK.
Follow-upAfter six weeks, things are going well. He's much calmer, more content, less frustrated, less easily angered, less explosive, sleeps well, and no longer screams. His anger doesn't come as often anymore, and when he is angry, he no longer screams and shouts. You can even send him to the hallway now; he doesn't go berserk anymore. He's terribly afraid of failing, telling his mother, "I can't do that," even if you ask him to do a puzzle, which causes drama. His sensitivity to his mother's emotions is less severe; she had a difficult time, but he remained calm. Mosquito allergy: the bites swell up enormously; before, he would sometimes swell up his whole face.
After three months, no more tantrums. He sleeps well. He can be corrected. After the holidays, he becomes more active again; if you keep him occupied all day, he's fine. If you start making demands, he gets active again. Last month, he had a massive infection near his jaw. It looked like mumps, but it wasn't. It healed quickly. Reaction to ice cream: after half an hour, he's very active and running around the house.
After five months, things remain good, and at school, things went surprisingly well. "He's a different child," and "What kind of medication is he on?" he no longer needs extra support. Mosquitoes no longer cause any unusual reactions. On vacation, he was stuffed with chocolate and candy, without any reaction. Previously, he had tantrums over food coloring, chocolate, and sugar. Playing is going well; now he can play in his room and sit for a long time building and talking loudly. For the first time, he can play with friends; he's no longer shunned, but invited.
