This is very tough for you. You don't mention how old your son is. Part of the problem may be that he gets frustrated with his limitations and problems, so the better they can be treated, the better for his anger. Apart from that, and heavy sedation (which is not a good solution for him), it probably comes down to long-term counselling - but there is not likely to be any dramatic effect.

my son is only eight years old and it's so sad to see him carry so much anger for a little lad it's like you got to tip toe around him and meals times are one of the worse times . his violent outbursts and aggression he got no control over as yet and this do upset him he was put on Ritalin but all this done was increased his anxiety well he give it a go a least i know it's not for him ,the best solution is like you said no not the sedation but i think he could have some counselling

Life is only going to get tougher for him as he reaches his teens. I think this is the most important time to seek serious help for him. What kind of school does he go to? and what seems to trigger his temper?

the young lad who lives downstairs has A.D.H.D, aspergers, turretts and something called williams and i know his mum has alot of the same problems. he is 10 years old and is finding that he acts like a teenager and can be extremely aggresive over everything. he has been put on melatonin (not sure if spelt right) and it does help that he gets a better sleep. but its tough he wants to be nice and u can see it when he calms himself. but he does not know how to be. there is alot of help out there. do u have any other children in the house

My son also has ADHD & Aspergers Syndrome, he would suffer really severe mood swings and get violent. All I can do is try to calm him down by talking to him, even though I know sometimes that he has completey switched off. Other times I have to restrain him because he does himself more harm. I take one day at a time thats all I can do, I love him dearly no matter what, It's an illness that he needs help, understanding as well as compassion. There is help out there, there are mentoring services out there, they find someone who has similar intrests as your child and team them up, my son has found a new friend in his mentor and I've noticed he talks to me more when he comes home from his day out. Tells me what kind of day he has what he did that day, he also attends a project for Young adults who find it hard to fit in. He is doing really well at the moment even though he has his off days, Only thing I can say to you is be very Patient with him. Good Luck & God Bless

@all who posted here:I'm sorry to hear about your children's disorders, and I just wanted to say that hopefully it will somehow get better (I don't know much about disorders so I don't know if they go away or not)
