[QUOTE="keista, post: 444953, member: 11965"] That word BOREDOM rings bells for me. I agree with the others that it could be an Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), but could also be anxiety - something else to look at. Hmmmmm could be both. DD1 gets into boredom mode. First time I posted her activities for one afternoon on this forum, I was swamped with "Have you screened for ADD?" For her it was ruled out. The boredom comes from a search for joy/fun, but nothing seems to fill it. "Relaxing" doesn't seem to be an option. The child needs to do SOMETHING, but can't figure out what that something is. From an observer's point of view, it can certainly look like ADD. [/QUOTE]
