How to help after effects of MDMA damage?
My son (mid 20's) has been ill for several years- swollen liver, dx Lyme-spirochete infection (from very experienced LLMD)plus Rocky Mountain Spotted fever years ago and Bart antibodies. Lingering effects still- no MD follow up treatment yet- on wait lists/or docs retired/ or not enough money etc.... - so have had to use natural type methods- GF/CF, almost nightshade free- primal diet starting into BED eating as well. Got slightly 'better' last year and then got socializing with the 'wrong' crowd and tried a drug called MDMA.Being socially challenged due to his health restrictions for years he got caught easily by the lure of a 'social' drug......well the short of it is- he took it too may times and he's not come 'back'!
Cycling like a bi-polar type reaction still months later- manic, yet not much 'down' side- some. Emotionless except irritation- slight happiness at times. Must move objects around the house in ad out- ad even in the middle of the night. Pron to self injury exp more lately- does not notice pressure so cuts self- or is careless so drops things- fumbles - grabs hot pan- forgetful.....Sleeps in short shifts- anytime day and night. But spun and wound up in between. Arrogant, unaware of own behaviors. Difficult- messy- looks like pic I've seen of 'Sulphur' partially........... Makes messes thinking they are 'organizing'- careless with possessions. Not speaking much- loss of weight even more- went from overweight extreme- a few years ago slowly to normal weight- lost 12 body weight. Now underweight. Has suffered loss of many things in recent years. Dopamine seem to be too high still since overdose last Dec.
We are awaiting on local reputable Homeopath appt- within next month- and on wait list.
DX also with ADD and social anxiety disorder- mild- also 'Output' problem- no input problem except after MDMA. Highly intelligent- tested recently by private doc.
Take Gaba, and Theanine, Lithium orotate, CoQ10, systemic enzymes, tissue salts, maca, Vit E, (working on getting more B's in)- several oils- 1/2 cup MCT coconut oil- Alpha brand per day last several months. Does something positive he feels....... also more- but that is all I can organize for now- Thanks kindly to anyone who has made it this far into my post. I am trying to help my son w/o the use of more Pharma drugs which is what caused this complication in the first place.
In gratitude for any helpful direction - would like to try a few more things while awaiting this upcoming appt.
Also suggested he may be on the Autistic spectrum as well- high functioning- yet GI problems (although better since diet controlled) and gait issues- other neuro problems and they have now worsened since MDMA. The constant movements and throwing things- not to be destructive- but just likes it. also boundary issues- what's your and what's mind- takes things from his sister if she leaves them out- kinda of owns things that aren't his. Also puts sticks on neighbor's property lines- but over into their space- not 'trying' to cause problems- just pushing boundaries. Running too much water outside- hose over watering everything too often!! Unusual behavior- involving body movements- too may- too extreme and appear to be done on purpose- like wants to kick leg out and act real cool with wearing scarves in the hot summer heat- (heavy ones) and winter coat even a few times....
Remedies that have my attention (but my brain is overfull at the moment- too much research)
Bellandona- the wild eyes fit, wildness, restlessness, and is careless with clothing.......noisy
Aurum metallicum
Sulphur
Anacardium oriental
Natmur
Nux Vomica
Lachesis
Agaricus
Platinum
Baptisia
Chamomilla
Passiflora incarnata
Tarentula hispanica

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
It's not really enough to prescribe on. For a chronic case you need to look at symptoms from all over the body and the person, all levels. On top of that you need to go through the history as well, possibly even looking at family history. Many times a remedy can be chosen on the basis of peculiar symptoms in apparently unrelated areas of the person's health (dreams, sleep, mentals, digestion, heart, vision etc).
As a face-to-face practitioner of homoeopathy, I would generally prefer that a patient who is coming to see me *not* experiment with remedies before they come in, especially since our medicines can have far-reaching side effects if not used appropriately. If possible I would wait until the practitioner can assess the case properly and prescribe with care.
