[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 658519, member: 1550"] Have you tried using interventions/services to help your little girl? I'm talkilng about things like PT, Occupational Therapist (OT), social skills classes...school supports? Autistics think differently than we do and even FEEL differently than we do. Touch can be painful, for example. Too much stimuli can be panic causing. Transitions can be painful and disturbing. I don't think it is appropriate to label somebody with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) as defiant. They often are, but it's not because they want to be contrary. They just have their own set of what they can tolerate and it is different from most people... medications are only part of the picture. My son who is on the spectrum did not do well on any medication. Outside-of-home intervention and supports helped tremendously. He is medication free at 21 and doing very well. [/QUOTE]
