[QUOTE="Giulia, post: 521708, member: 14306"] My two cents from someone living ADHD from inside. What can I say about misinterpreted social cues can be Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), but can also be something else. It has a ton of causes, in my case, it was... PTSD. I know it can make laugh, but it was what we finally found out after having thought of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), then ruled out because other diagnosis criterias not met. In my own personal case, when I feel hyper insecure in a particular setting, I misinterpret social cues. If I am in a place where I feel secure, then I perfectly interpret social cues. Of course, while under stimulant. Without stimulant, no way to do so. It seems a detail, but it can change the situation. It didn't help to make friends, indeed. The attention deficit didn't help me to perfectly read social cues either, I missed a lot of them (same when I am not under medicine). Are there any other situations in which your son explodes and ends to throw up chairs, hit.... ? Is there any warning before it happens ? etc etc.... Extreme explosions can happen with ADHD without mood disorder nor Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). It's not the most typical pattern, but it can happen to some persons. Also, what I can say from the internal side of the story is that the more I am sarcastically talked, negative sentences, negative discipline... the more it fuels an extreme explosion, like what your son has. Inefficient medicine can also lead to such situations. I can testimony that with a stimulant, you won't see me explode, unless you add extreme anxiety and/or in an extreme noisy place. What you describe can be Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), but it may also have other causes. Maybe these informations won't be helpful for you. Take them if they help, leave them otherwise. I hope you will be able to figure out what happens to your son. [/QUOTE]
