[QUOTE="KateM, post: 169168, member: 1973"] Hi and Welcome, Cardigangirl! My difficult child was initially diagnosis as ADD( at age 5) and then was diagnosis with Aspergers at age 14. There are alot of overlapping symptoms. As such, there is treatment that can be helpful to both diagnosis. Structure is important to kids with these diagnosis Knowing what to expect and helping with transitions is also good for these kids. I agree with the other posters-- getting a good evaluation will point you in the right direction. Also, reading really helps me. A book many have found helpful, as Marg has recommended, is "The Explosive Child". Posting and reading this site should really be beneficial, too! It's a supportive place! Glad to have you with us!
