[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 115111, member: 1550"] Some kids on the spectrum take stims. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. They made my son aggressive and mean and he's not like that. Rispserdal is more widely used if the child is out-of-control or self-abuses or is destructive. Only half of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) children are on medications. I prefer interventions in school to deal with the inattentiveness and an aide to teach my son how to break down what he learns in school. He has done really well without medications and with school interventions. I think that, if you use therapy at all with an Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kid, CBT is the best idea. These kids don't normally understand abstract thinking. They do better with concrete talk as they are concrete, black and white, thinkers. [/QUOTE]
