I think Dr Mark Jones is just trying to sell his product. He is conducting a series of planted advertising messages such as the one below across the internet in order to promote his product. I have not found any other submissions from this contributor on any sites relating to ADHD or CBT with content which does not directly sell his product. He is not contributing feedback or research or evaluation or advice. He is using this are as a marketing and customer targeting board.

I did a web based CBT PhD to help chidlren in hospital and now mums are using it for ADHD and other issues. CBT has a good effect on children ... Check out www.AnimalAgentz.com for more info. "My 9 yr old has ADHD and presents behavioural difficulties...I am having to pay a private therapist to help my son..many children face daily struggles with little or no help and so they suffer. I am in 100% support of this ...so much needed idea!" Mrs Garvey, East Yorkshire See full quotes in Feedback. Responses from independent research conducted by Mum'sViews Ltd

I wrote a short while ago and I did say that if psychological treatment such as Cognative Behaviour Therapy (CBT) didn't work then drugs such as Methlphenidate (Ritalin, Equasym Concerta) and Atomoxetine (Straterra) are a must, since writing that I have found out that Homeopathy remedies can work for people with ADHD. I do not know if Dr Tim Kendall would agree with this, however I my self have seen it make a huge difference with my sister Sophie who is 15. Sophie has been recently struggling at school and at home however, having said that since being treated by a homeopath (privately at quite a cost) and being given a remedie to take instead of the above mentioned drugs she has improved a great deal both at home and school. I am very stable and also doing well in my education at present, so I personally would not like to amend my medicine, however if your son or daughter is not doing that well on drugs used for ADHD, then you could possibly get homeopathy on the NHS if you ask your Gp or Consultant for a referrel. If they do refer you it may well be the case that you have to travel some distance in order to find a Medically qualified Homeopathic doctor. For more information on Homeopathic Doctors and Homeopath it's self visit the British Homeopathic Association's website www.trusthomeopathy.org or why not give them a call on 0870 444 3950 (please note calls are charged at national rate). I hope this is of some use.

I have been diagnosed with ADHD, initially I was diagnosed when aged 6 years, unfortunatley when I was 14 I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, which was incidently an incorrect diagnoses, I have just recently been diagnosed with ADHD and take Methylphenidate and Atomoxotine and this really really helps, it certainly improves my ability to concentrate and reduces physical impulses and verbal impulses I can also complete tasks in less time than before and as far as study is concerned I am a great deal better. I am hoping to be a Doctor of Medicine and I can certainly say that with out these drugs that would certainly not be possible, I have tried CBT and it has helped a fair bit, but not half as much as the drugs have. So in my opinion try Psycological treatments first, but if they don't do what you need them to do then drugs are a must.
