child with "intense" personality

Hello everyone... I wanted to draw on your experiences and find out what remedies come to mind when the description of a child is repeatedly referred to as "intense" to be around. My son is this way, and I've described him this way since he was an infant. Friends of the family have described him as "My gosh, he's intense", meaning, he commands and demands attention. He loves to talk. Loves to talk about anything that pops into his mind. And when he does, he speaks slowly and clearly making sure that you hear each word. Some of his other traits are that he gets overfocused on things and can't let go, and that he has a quick temper. He also gets very overexcited when looking forward to something coming up. His demeanor can shift from one moment to the next because of his thoughts. One moment he'll be playing calmly with other kids, and the next minute he'll be acting strange because he remembered something and now his brain is stuck on it. I don't want this to get too long to read, but again, was curious to know if there were any remedies so far that have stuck out from my description, especially if there were any that include "intense" in the description. He's a child that in the past, has responded very well to low dose remedies, helping things like I've mentioned above (such as arg. nit., ars. alb., sulphur, hepb vax).

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
what you describe in itself does not signify a dis-eased state. physical symptomology is needed as well to make proper individuallization for prescription---

others propose ill-ness on people because personal way of viewing--parents are notorious for such treatmnet--often it is they whom need treating--because child doesn't fit their 'mold'-so to speak.

I understand what you are saying. In terms of disease though, he does have asthma and metal toxicity and those are my main concerns for him, along with how he is very allergic/chemically sensitive to things. Prone to red ears at times. Today he is pretty wound up with redness in the face as well but this is not the way he usually is. He has muscle weakness in his ankles and wrists. He has been waking up too early lately. He's also affected (adversely) by the moon changes. Used to be the full moon, but now it is timed with the new moon. I'd still like to hear any ideas from people. I merely focused on the personality traits because I've read on this board times where people posted their physical issues and then people come back and say--we need to know more about the personality, not the diseased states. So that's why I posted that info and didn't focus on his physical issues.

Oh, I also wanted to add that his personality/behaviors are much worse right before he is to have a bowel mvoement. He is also worse right before an illness and is better during the illness. I don't know if that helps, but those are things I have noticed with him.

start case with 1 dose sulphur 30c
no repetition of dose ..

must avoid all sweets particularly refined white sugar---maple syrup is ok...no acidic foods or drinks---this covers most fruit as welll as cofee-tea--.etc

post any changes that occur after sulphur

Well, he's "different" today... his ears are still red and he's still a bit flushed in the face, but he's more "with it" in terms of being able to look at me and read me (see my nonverbal/body language), but he's really loud and thrill-seeking. Right now, he's sliding down the stairs on a camping mat, shouting at the top of his lungs, singing opera-style. When he eats, he's humming -- he has been doing that occasionally lately, but now it's louder. Has kind of a weird look in his eye. Kind of wired looking, like someone who knows "something's up" and just isn't saying it. The only positive that I can see is that again, he seems more in tune with me/my body language, but it's like the "intensity dial" has been dialed up. :-)
In the past, I don't recall him reacting this way to sulfur. If anything, once we had done a hepB and sulfur combination (maybe a year or two ago-- the sulfur was probably 12c or 30c), and I saw some detoxing signs (major foul diarrhea) and improvements with him--better eye contact, better color to his skin tone, looked healthier overall.

ok- he is to avoid all acids and sugar products---no other dose --allow response to stablize
