[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 610257, member: 3419"] Welcome, and so sorry you have to go through this. From the info here, it sounds like he could be both bipolar AND have Asperger's ... the things that caught my attention in regard to Asperger's are video game addiction, and not wanting to order his own food. Jumping out of a car sounds more like bipolar. He needs to have a long, in-depth evaluation. The reason he is acting out seems to be because he doesn't know any other way to behave. He found that screaming, kicking and threatening worked for him when he was little. Plus, the world is just too overwhelming for him. That's my take. My son takes clonidine and it really takes the edge off. Just an idea. This is going to be a long process. I feel for you all. Many hugs. [/QUOTE]
