Hey, you all!

I would like to meet persons who either are diagnosed with Asperger themselves or family members.
I got the dx in June this year. My son 8 years old... got his dx in Febr.- March this year.

Happy to be here!/PL

Thank you, Chemar and MaryEvelyn!!!

Well... what do I want to know? First of all I want to ask if your son's been violent in any way... I also would like to get some input concerning medication.

Good to hear that your son's enjoying school and that he's feeling better!

My dd is 17, never been violent.. although I know of kids who had rage issues due to a co-occuring chiari malformation. Check my site for more info www.geocities.com/keggy11789

I was dx'd with AS a couple of years ago. Even prior to the dx, though, I was never violent.

Is there a specific question you have in mind about medications?
