My son has always been 100% boy and very active (although he knew how to behave, he tested limits but acted appropriately in public situations better than the average child.) It wasn't until he was three and a half did he seem not like the average kid his age. Whenever he was in a large group of kids, it seemed like he couldn't hear me anymore. He wasn't even playing with the kids, he became so over stimulated he seemed to be in his own little world. He then started running away. Whenever he got over stimulated he would take off, as fast as he could, in any direction.
When he went into preschool at age 4, he had a lot of issues. Part of me blamed it on his teacher who didn't believe in consequences, and another part was the fact that he was bored with the learning aspects of class, because he already knew colors, numbers, shapes, letters, sounds, and rhyming. He was over stimulated in class, and acted out by tackling other students, occasionally hitting, and running away. He never tackled or hit out of anger, and he would seem surprised after it happened. Like I said, he was in his own little world. He was tested by special ed and they told me "He's 100% boy! He'll grow out of it, just don't let him get away with bad choices." (something we never did.)
He was fine after preschool during the summer, (but again, he wasn't around more than a few kids at a time- something he's always been able to handle.) Kindergarten had a good first day of school, and nothing since. He wasn't being physical with the other kids, but instead while they were suppose to sit on the carpet for a lesson or a story, he would be rolling around the floor. He was over-enthusiastic with his classmates, would use his pencil to drum or poke the kids next to him, and spent most of his day in time out because of his actions. He was also known to stop working because he was bored with it, go to another part of the classroom to play while others worked, crawl under the tables, and act jumpy around the class. He has just about every symptom of ADHD, although has not been diagnosed with anything.
Since he started having issues, I started reading up on options other than medication, because that's not in option in my mind. I read up on neurofeedback. When kindergarten was going as bad as it was, we found a licensed practitioner downtown who could work with us. Since the first week of September he has gone for sessions every Tuesday and Thursday, except for a few times because of holidays, sickness, or travel. He has had 21 sessions.

At first, he was having tremendous results!
His teacher was amazed, as were we! His doc guessed him not needing more than 20 sessions because he was reacting so well, and mentioned he'd never seen anyone respond as fast as he had. By session 14 we started having trouble. He started acting out in school again, this time being violent with other classmates. He was having panic attacks, hysterical tantrums, being physically violent with me in anger over the smallest of issues, and could no longer nap. Each time he was having trouble we'd tell his doctor, and he would change frequencies on his next session. It now seems every other session, despite changes, he continues to have these issues. He cries at the smallest of issues, has begun picking things up and throwing them and breaking things during his fits now, as well.
I wanted to stop the sessions, knowing that's what was doing it to him, but had multiple people tell me that ADHD symptoms generally take 30-40 sessions and to take my time.

It's so frustrating- it is like he is battling with himself in his own mind.

HAS ANYONE ELSE HAVE NEGATIVE REACTIONS WITH NEUROFEEDBACK SESSIONS??? Should I just be waiting this out?
