[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 630933, member: 1550"] Had your son ever been evaluated by a high level professional as a child? His obsessions with trains is common in Aspergers Syndrom. Some kids memorize entire schedules and can parrot them back perfectly. That could be his core problem, which is why he has trouble making friends, getting work, and fitting in. Did anyone ever mention it to you? My son, who is on the spectrum, was tested by neuropsychs when he was quite young. I don't know if finding out will help him now, but it could if he gets the right services f or autistic spectrum disorder and regular psychiatrists don't really get it. Sometimes Aspies do get into drugs because they are tired of not fitting in and they'd rather fit in with losers than nobody. Did he ever repat verbatim the television shows he watched? Does he have an eerily great rote memory but is clueless about life in the abstract? I am going to show you a link about adults with Aspergers. Maybe he has it and maybe it could help him to know it and to get a different type of help, on top of the drug abuse: (Your ex could have had it too, if, indeed, either has it. I'm just making an out-there guess). [url]http://psychcentral.com/lib/adult-aspergers-the-relief-of-a-diagnosis/0006706[/url] [/QUOTE]
