[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 153417, member: 1233"] Terry, As it was explained to me, ADHD is a facet of Asperger's in people who have asperger's. It is part of the disorder. It is usually listed as a separate diagnosis because tehn you get more services. Aspies get stuck on an idea. They just can't move past. (This was described as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)-lite to me at one point). Wizard moved WAY past that into full Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I know one doctor said your son doesn't have Asperger's, but so much of what you describe is very much like Wizard. It might be worth another opinion. I have to say that an Aspie diagnosis opens doors to a LOT of services, under the autism umbrella. It might very well help your family in the long run. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
