I was diagnosed nearly 30 years ago and have never heard of that place, if they are selling their own alternative treatment I would stay away. Best case they are just grifters, worst case it’s some crazy alternative medicine cult. The only people you should seek treatment from are doctors, psychiatrists and neurologists.
Edit: After briefly scanning over that website I’m even more sure it’s sketch. If you don’t already have a specialist for treatment you should talk to your general practitioner, ask for a referral
Agreed. I had a serious bad feeling about it but I promised my wife I’d ask my “ADHD group” about it.
I’m sure she’s just trying to help, which is one of the things that make groups like that are so potentially dangerous.
This is the correct answer
Good luck, man, avoid those scammers.
