[QUOTE="Snowenne, post: 433210, member: 12088"] Hi, I'm new to this site hoping to find other parents that are in my same situation. Someone to listen to me vent and let me listen while they vent. My son was diagnosed last year with Aspergers. He was a very good baby until he started school and thats when it became worse. Right now he is only on Adderall to help him sit still in school. It works. I dont get the daily phone calls from the school either telling me to go pick him up or to tell me he's suspended. However, now home life is horrible. I basically have to fight with him over every little thing. From getting changed in the morning, to taking his medicine, to get him to do anything, to get him to eat, shower, brush teeth etc. He screams and yells so loud that childrens aid has been called on us a few times because when hes in his extreme meltdown phase omg you really think we are beating the **** outta him. I've been trying to get him medicated to take away the anger but man thats harder than dealing with this everyday. I'm tired, i'm stressed, this is not what I wanted to do everyday of my life. I want to believe this will get better now that he is going to start occupational therapy but man its hard. So if you are in the same spot as I am and am looking for help, please feel free to reply to this thread. Thanks :) [/QUOTE]
