[QUOTE="isis, post: 565274, member: 15590"] You're his mom and all of your instincts are likely exactly right: there is something 'wrong' and it is horrible for him. You are doing the right thing to start to get help but I agree with the other posters that you should throw your net wider and get every evaluation you can (neuropsychologist for sure, Occupational Therapist (OT)). Also, if anyone tells you something that doesn't seem right (I heard: he's a little eccentric, but he's fine at the first psychiatric we went to, so so so wrong) follow your instincts and keep digging (I didn't and it was a mistake, mostly for my poor son who was suffering all the more that no one would acknowledge that something was wrong). The more help he can get, the less suffering for him as treatments may help and less suffering for you as you realize that its not you, its not your parenting, you're right, he's wired differently (that's why traditional parenting methods DO NOT work, they don't!). Good luck, believe in yourself, you're doing the right thing though its so hard to face. [/QUOTE]
