Breakthrough Moments in Complex Case of Autism with SIB, Epilepsy

Severely Autistic Person Laughing Hysterically. Brief Seizure Seen, but Resumes Laughing. Responding to Mother's Interaction (often in his own world, doesn't acknowledge people). awtismo אוטיזם אפילפסיה օտիզմի էպիլեպսիայի autismo epilepsia 자폐증의 간질 自閉症てんかん الصرع مرض التوحد epilepsie Аутизъм епилепсия 自閉症癲癇 chứng tự kỷ bệnh động kinh 5HTP therapy seems to reduce incessant disruptive vocalizations. 5HTP can be safe effective alternative to SSRI's , but some SSRI's better help autistics with OCD type issues. We try to AVOID medications for behavior, but the reality is sometimes they are needed. Of course NATURAL alternatives are always better options....if they work.

my heart goes out to you and him! I have a son who is like this! I am still mad at God!

it is not fair! It breaks my heart.. my son hasn't even said, Momma to me.. and he probablly never will.. and then I hear these parents to tell their kids to shut up in teh store.. and i feel like saying.. at least yoru kid can communicate with you.. mine has no clue of anything.. and I imagine how it would be if he was normal.. and I love him with all my heart.. but it's so hard!!

god bless him n u!

@notebook116 I hope you and your son are doing well. Even if he can't say he loves you, he is saying it inside his heart....

@queenfan45 Once Jamey was "fixated" on a woman's colorful shirt in the store...and she had a disgusted look on her face, and kept moving away from him, so I told her, "look honey, it's not you he's looking at, so don't flatter yourself. He's looking at the cool design on your shirt."

This is so breathtakingly beautiful. His laugh just makes my heart sing so much. The fact that he's responding to you is nothing short of a miracle. God Bless you all.
