[QUOTE="buddy, post: 499256, member: 12886"] I agree with MWM... the change from Autism to Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified is not as significant as one may think. Certainly not the jump from that spectrum to what most Residential Treatment Center (RTC)'s deal with which is mental health diagnosis typically. Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified, ADD, Tourette's all have the other things you list as symptoms... the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), anxiety, mood disorder and even BiPolar (BP)-like symptoms if you are talking about sudden mood changes that is. I would be very careful, having a similar child to you, of being sure that the facility has experience with people with this style of learning. This way of perceiving the world. Just my .02 worth. I think the way you posted it is wonderful... will pull out folks in your area AND anyone who can relate to your child . Let us know what you find out. I will pray you find appropriate services for your difficult child! I have thought since you started posting again that our kids sound similar in some ways. Certainly in diagnosis. and complexity.
