[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 177099, member: 1550"] You know what? Take him to a neuropsychologist, even if he's seen one before. He's older now. It's total garbage that he have five diagnosis. and nobody REALLY knows what is wrong yet they are denying him Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) interventions when he may very well have it (bipolar is a common misdx. of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)). I would get him set up with a neuropsychologist and not worry about medications. I've been on a ton of medications, and they are just as apt to make you worse as better OR sometimes they just dope you to nothingness. This is something people don't like to talk about, but sometimes "he's better" could mean "he's so doped up that he's no longer a behavior problem." I've been to the point of stupidness due to drugs. I also think it's best not to involve three or four professionals as nobody gets to know him THAT well and everyone has his own opinion and it gets very confusing. At this point, his professional team isn't helping him one bit. They are throwing drugs at him and denying him Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) services...pfffft. in my opinion get a new professional to see him...again I strongly recommend a neuropsychologist. And consider that this bunch just doesn't "get" your son. And that maybe he needs to work closely with one person rather than a team (a team isn't always the greatest). Having BiPolar (BP) myself and my son having Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), I've seen my fair share of professionals. Sadly, you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find a prince. It is tiring, confusing, and mindboggling, but it is so worth it when somebody finally "gets" your child and your child actually improves. I would seek different help. These people aren't doing anything for him and there are too many people going in different directions. I know that drove me insane and didn't help my son. (((Hugs))) [/QUOTE]
