[QUOTE="Ovrwhlmd, post: 51894, member: 3824"] Sensitivity to changes in clothing would be he has an issue if a certain blanket is not with the rest of them, his "duckie blankie" feels different than the others and he's partial to that particular one. Foods, we have discovered his behavior excellerates if has anything with-Red Dye in it. No problems with-bright light or sounds. As far as changes in routine - he doesn't do well at all on a routine because in the middle of something that i would consider part of a routine he could have a neuclear meltdown - so there has not been much room for routines. Transitions is another story. When we moved here from California he did fine, but my mom moved here last June to live with us and for about 6-8 months he would scream at her, things such as "don't come down the stairs, go back to your room, don't come in my car" He does similar things to me now, but not as often. He will tell me to go away and that he wants a new mommie or just scream as loud as he can at me. As far as sleep problems....well that's a monster in itself. He has probably slept thru the night only a dozen times in his short little 4 year old life. He gets up every night and either wants to sleep with-us or he wants me or husband to sleep with him. If the word "no" comes out there's a major meltdown and I've just been too tired and exhausted to fight, so maybe I've created a habbit, I have no idea. Our family history is hard to evaluate because my husband has no idea what his background is, they (his twin bother and him) were adopted at 5 and their parents had them evaluated by many doctors who never gave a clear diagnosis. My family has a history of depression, anxiety and possibly bi-polar. Not for sure though. You are all so helpful, I'd love more possiblities or questions. Thanks, michelle [/QUOTE]
