Hi,
Was wondering if anyone has ever had to deal with a situation like this. My son who is ADHD/Aspergers has started a new we think Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) behiavor. However, its a dangerous one. My son went through a few weeks back a little bout I guess you could say with constipation. Only he wasnt constipated. He was refusing to go. Keeping it in whenever he felt the 'feeling' After a couple days of him doing this we started to give him laxatives (without him knowing) to help. However 4 days of laxatives he was still fighting. Only now hes in severe pain. We tried and tried and tried to tell him he had to go but he wouldnt listen. It ended up with him throwing up screaming in pain before he did anything. Did he learn. NO. He's back at it again not going. What do you do??
