[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 455125"] Not sure if this applies to you but stimulants have a tendency to make Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) aggression worse. I know it did in our case. You might want to check that with your psychiatrist. If he isn't seeing a Child or Adolescent psychiatrist, I would switch to one. There is a website I have found a website (will PM you with the site once I find it again) where I can look at the "specialties" the various professionals deal with. You might not want one that specializes in any one area because they tend to focus on THAT diagnosis and leave the rest "in the dust". I agree with DDD's suggestion to have a neuropsychologist evaluation done. Looking at your sig ADHD, ODD, and Disruptive Disorder are all pretty much part of the Asperger's so I would question the diagnoses. [/QUOTE]
