[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 115095, member: 1991"] I'd be thinking about getting a thorough multidisciplinary evaluation also. And while BiPolar (BP) needs to be considered, it also fits with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD). With the masturbation, this can be social inappropriateness, lack of being self-conscious about it and could also fit in with the Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) plus Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) - also part of Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD). My mother's way of dealing with kids who masturbate too much (especially in front of her) - she would tell them not to do it or they would "make it sore". Which is pretty much true. And groping herself in that area is also an anxiety thing. We have a terrible time with difficult child 3 with it; same thing with difficult child 1 when he was younger. Their school shorts (uniform) were grey, but the front of their shorts was always a darker grey, from all the excessive handling. Currently, difficult child 3 will put his hands down the front of his shorts without even thinking, I have to keep telling him to not do it, he's old enough now to be told it's unacceptable to do this in front of other people or in public. But he forgets. It feels good, so much of everything else does not. So they do it without even thinking. It's not necessarily hypersexual. Have you checked out the unofficial Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) questionnaire on [url="http://www.childbrain.com?"]http://www.childbrain.com?[/url] See if it rings bells. You can print it out and take it to a doctor, but you can't use it to diagnose in any formal way. Marg [/QUOTE]
