feeling lost

Hello im new to all this and feeling a bit lost with everything, I have an 11 yr old son he is a lovely amazing special young man (most of the time) I have always had problems with him at home behavour, trouble with his older sister (the only sister he has trouble with he actually has 2 brothers and 4 sisters) but after moving house and i guess upsetting his routine trouble at school not being able to settle bad behavour at school ending in him having to be removed so far he has been asked to be removed from 2 schools and is looking to be taken out of the 1 he is in now due to behavour he is not a bad child and all the teachers agree with me im trying very hard to get him assesed no 1 really wants to help i had 1 professional tell me he couldnt have aspergers as he makes eye contact with me and got extremely upset when his temper problems were talked about. Reading the information on here its like reading a book on my son. It is tearing my family apart at the moment because we just dont no where to go what help we can get for him we seem to walk around on egg shells around him. I could go on and on about what his behavour is like but to be honest i dont no where to start all i do know is im at the end of my tether he is getting bigger stronger and its scary when he goes off. Any advice would be wonderful.

Thank you

  • My son has been seeing a child psychiatrist for about 8 months now after being refered by his previous school she has put him on Risperidone 0.5mg daily to help with his anxiety and stress levels i have mentioned to her on more than 1 occasion about aspergers and could i get him tested she has refered him to art therapy (not too sure why) We have also spoken to his councilor and anger management therapist and spoken to my GP with no luck there either. I have been told he is just a sensitive boy or he is a trouble maker. He does not understand why he reacts like he does he can not explain why either just that it was not his fault. He is not a trouble maker and certainly does not look for trouble yes he is sensitive but then as are all my children. He is like a 4 yr old child at times its very hard to understand what is going on with him. I am waiting for some forms to come through from the people here to take to my GP to see if that will help get things moving in the right direction.
