Orthomolecular has been used over the whole spectrum of mental problems, from situational anxiety to full on, chronic, backwards schizophrenia.
I had severe social phobia and I was hooked on bzd drugs in my teens and early twenties. Bad news. Now, I function much, much better with the niacinamide+c+e+b-100, plus everything else I take (mostly antioxidants).
Niacin, niacinamide...they have a calming effect, but they don't make anger worse as bzd drugs can sometimes. B3 in its various forms can be used for hostile, angry kids...I imagine the same is true of adults.
Addictions...are complicated. to the extent that any somatic treatments can help addiction, I think OM has helped me with bzd and Rx amphetamine problems. To be fair, I was one of those "addiction by prescription" cases, so a lot of the help is in treating the problems that resulted in Rx upper and downer treatments in the first place. I don't know how the OM would do with someone who was inclined towards street drugs and/or alcohol.
So..yeah...OM has been used for all kinds of psychiatric indications, from the ODD/ADHD kids to the backwards schizophrenia cases. The vitamins have helped me tremendously (I do still require 4 Rx pills daily, including Abilify), and I hope you'll find some relief in OM, too.
