SuZir -- Wow.  That's a whole lot to consider.  A whole lot.  Thanks for sharing more in-depth.  Didn't mean to pry, just wanted to understand better.


Hmmm....  Capsaicin for self-harm.  Honestly, I've never heard that before.  Unusual.  He ever do any big damage with it that required significant medical attention?  Pins under nails is also unusual (although I have heard of that, at least).  I did know someone who carved in his arm with glass.  But capsaicin is a new one for me to hear.


Bipolar is always a valid consideration when things go into extremes or oddities.  Our son is bipolar.  "Persona" may differ in denotation and connotation.  I don't know.  Something to research (in terms of DSM, etc) or consult a professional about.


Again, that's a whole lot to consider.  And he's right at the age where those things may bloom wildly.  I send you best wishes for more clarity, understanding and options.  It's quite a maze trying to figure it all out sometimes!


Wishing you all the best, SuZir!
