[QUOTE="busybee, post: 186627, member: 5774"] Okay, I'm going to try to answer all the questions that have been posted! What medications is your son taking? [COLOR=black]Are they stimulants for the ADHD?[/COLOR] [COLOR=red]He is taking concerta. I believe that is a stimulant for the ADHD.[/COLOR] How does he do in school? Does he have friends? [COLOR=red]Behavioraly he does fine in school. His teachers have all told me that he is not a behavior problem, he just doesn't do his work. So his grades last year were terrible. Quite frankly, I surprised they passed him to the 8th grade.[/COLOR] [COLOR=red]He does have friends. He also has a girlfriend, which has been an issue with his budding sexuality.[/COLOR] [COLOR=red][/COLOR] 2. Have you had a neuropsychologist done on him? [COLOR=red]We haven't had this done. Honestly I'm sure where to even start with that. Would I ask his psychiatrist or our family dr.[/COLOR] 3. Is there a history of mental illness, autism, learning disabilities, substance abuse in the family? [COLOR=red]there is not any diagnosed mental illness, but as I've started going through this with my son I've started to believe that I have the same problems that he does. I really need to seek some help for myself also because we seem to trigger each other.[/COLOR] 4. Any type of sensory issues (sensitive to touch, smell, taste, sound, etc)? [COLOR=red]No he doesn't have any sensory issues. Other than the behavioral issues he is a very healthy boy.[/COLOR] does your son display these behaviors towards others (ex: school, work, friends, strangers) or just the family? [COLOR=red]He really only displays these behaviors toward family. Originally it was just to my husband and I, but he has spent alot more time with my parents in the last year because I am going to school full time and my husband works 2nd shift. He has also started directing more anger towards his sisters. He doesn't get physical with them, but he gets angry about every little thing they do. [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
