Still wondering
My son is 11 and diagnosed with ADHD and on Meds but there's still something just not right. He's very clumsy and always full of bruises that according to him "don't hurt". It's like he enjoys pain, but a small scratch, he can't handle, but he'll pick at it until it's a big scratch. He eats with his fingers which means it's usually all over him, which he could care less. He could wake up in the morning and go to school in his underwear and not care. Personal hygene- non existant.
He's had an IQ test and he's in the normal range, but sometimes he'll do things that a 2 year old might do. Oh yeah, he will not go into a room, even the bathroom by himself which means there are "accidents".
After looking at this site I think we will be taking him to see a neurologist soon because he fits some of these behaviors. Most of the time he's the sweetest kid, so I hope we can get to the bottom of these behaviors that frustrate the whole family and ,I'm sure, him also. Thanks for listening.
