[QUOTE=", post: 2901"] Tracey, I don't know if I mentioned it to you, but my child is only (yeah, right) severe ADHD, but he had really no autistic behaviors (and I've asked all his professionals). Sometimes he does put his shirt in his mouth, but I wouldn't say it is that often. I started researching the autistic stuff because I felt that his behaviors as an ADD kid were on the autism spectrum, just not as severe. Like, getting too close to people & not respecting another person's personal space (when he was younger). He also couldn't read body cues (like ADD kids) and was/is pretty literal, & doesn't understand the nuances of speech, like "Crack the window" means open it a little. I've had to explain all those things, but he is so smart, he understands it after you explain it. He just doesn't pick it up unless you explain it first. He has probably all the severe ADHD symptoms, though (much, much better, since the diet). Also, the rages that most ADHD kids don't have, he had 4 to 5 hrs. or so after ingesting gluten. I finally figured it out after keeping a food/behavior diary, then I came across all Lisa Lewis's writings & decided I'd try all that stuff, even though none of the doctors thought he was autistic, I figured if these things can help an autistic kid, they surely can help my child.
