can't get a diagnosis.  Overwhelming. Very loving--very angry and acts out.  Few friends.  Extremely afraid of things.  Extremely abusive

When you say you can't get a diagnosis...\n\nHave you spoken with your doctor about getting a referral to a child psychiatrist or neuropsychologist?  A GP is not fully qualified to diagnose this stuff.\n\nIs he getting into trouble at school, and has this been happening for more than 6 months (it MUST have been happening for more than 6 months)?  Then you can get a diagnostic evaluation by a school psychologist. Ask that your son's teacher put in the paperwork. Make the request in writing, one copy to your teacher and one to the principal.\n\nIf it has been less than 6 months...\n\nKids often go through moody periods. My concern is that you say he doesn't remember afterward (although that could just be him trying to avoid consequences), and that you mentioned he appears extremely afraid of things.\n\nYou really do need to get a psychiatric/psychology expert...get that referral from your doctor.

it definitely sounds like a great struggle. but as you described, intelligence is unbeatable, I would encourage you to keep doing what you are, try to look for peds neurology, better found in teaching institutes or university hospitals eg mayo, boston, houtson, indianapolis, etc. besides see if you find support groups for this condition, if you find none, consider starting one, since you and your family may not be the only one with this condition, wish you all the best, good luck

I hate to this, but you need to get back on your meds. I know it sucks, I know you might have some unpleasant side effects, but the hassles involved with the meds are better than the hassles stemming from the illness. I had a  roomate that had some of the same symptoms. His meds made him shake. So he would get off his meds and would deteriorate radiply. Your still young, I want you to remember this, with your condition, you are susceptible to alcoholism and drug addiction. I don't want you to find out the hard way and dig yourself a huge hole that will be hard to get out of. Please talk to someone close to you that can help. I'm changing my profile to allow you to email me for 48 hours if I can help further. i wish you the best.

I had a real similar event last summer, on the Fourth of July.\nbut it was due to a brain tumor,  the rest sounds real familiar matter of fact, deja vu.\nI'm a 42-year-old male two daughters.\nand a girlfriend, that I'm amazed she stayed with me :)\nI also lost a lot of memory.  Most of it as a comeback.  I still have seizures everyday.  \nI can empathize with you about the anger thing.  I still have family members that are not speaking to me :)\nthe doctor told me that it's real normal, for the anger and it seems to me.  It's a different kind of anger than just plain angry.\nand I was lucky to have a loving girlfriend that has stayed with me,\n\nstory is way too long to put into this context.\nI understand everything you've gone through.\nand if you need someone to talk to.\nit would be good for me to talk also.\nAllanMayta@yahoo.com\n\nAllan Mayta

Why can't you ask a psychologist to diagnose you... are you under age and your parents don't want to (go see the school counselor)? Is there no insurance or an issue with your insurance company in this regard? Or does the mere thought turn your anxiety up through the roof (this one is a strong indicator for the first condition I mention below)?\n\nAnyway...\n\nLosing concentration in a social situation, and having difficulty conversing with others, could be any number of things.\n\nSocial Anxiety/agoraphobia is the most likely cause, but it takes a clinical psychologist or psychiatrist to do any diagnosis, so don't take what I'm saying as one. Anyway, agoraphobia is treated with medication and therapy. It can also contribute to difficulty concentrating at school and in other stressful situations, and can be a quite serious condition.\nYou might have attention deficit...but that by itself usually does not make someone a "social recluse"...quite the opposite!\nIt probably isn't Asperger's (although like I said before, I'm not diagnosing you, here). In the autistic spectrum, the person does not read social cues from others or learn social rules effectively. They also usually don't show their own emotions with the same set of body language as everyone else. While people with autistic-spectrum disorders, especially the higher-intelligence ones, feel a great deal of anxiety in social situations, it's more a foot-in-mouth problem rather than clamming up, especially for Aspergers. This is a generalization, but I'm trying to summarize this in less than half a page..lol.\n\nAnyway, the ONLY way to really identify your exact issue and needs is to get a diagnosis, and treatment through couselling (and medication if absolutely necessary).

The things that have happened to you are terrible and of course it is abuse.  You really need a trusted adult to help you.  The fact that you were able to post on here means that you are ready to get the help you need.  I'm a licensed psychiatric social worker and I came from a really crappy upbringing too.  My dad was physically abusive and my mom was pretty depressed and didn't stop him.  I managed to get past the abuse and lead a productive life but even today, I remember the abuse and have to deal with the feelings surrounding it.  You are too young and your life is too precious to be lost in the cycle of child abuse.  The sooner you get help the more likely you are to move on successfully with your life.  You don't need your parents permission to seek counseling.  School counselors are an option.  I recognize that trusting adults right now is probably difficult and I'm sure you still love your parents to some extent.  What you need to understand is that if your parents are abusing or neglecting you, they are sick too and need help.  Right now you need to realize that you are worth saving and not all adults are bad.  Your life can and WILL get better.  I don't know where you live and what resources are available there but I would be happy to help you in anyway I can.  Please feel free to email me if you need more help or someone to talk to.  My email is jazzy_59602@yahoo.com.  Please stay safe and reach out to someone.

Go to your Doctor and demand he do tests tell him your symptoms.  If he wont then get a second opinion this is serious and it is effecting your everyday life. You should definitly see a social worker of some kind to help you come to terms withat the horrible thing you have been through. You are a brave women for asking for help now stand up and demand the help you need to  get closure on this. Good luck Sweetie

Ya! I try to force myself never to cry because I come close to breaking down everyday. I've had such a miserable life I really can't believe what I've been through and the last 8 years has been absolutely hell. I just can't do this any more.After reading your profile made me realize what I don't have.

Sounds like a sociopathic or narcisstic personality disorder. HOWEVER, the mere fact that you recognize those symptoms and fear having them is a definite positive for you because that means you are aware and will do all you can to educate yourself and get help if indeed you start having those symptoms. I believe you will do fine.

First of all, I want you to know I strongly empathize for you and am so sorry for what you're going through.  It must be extremely difficult to love someone who can't give love back to you, and to love someone who is toxic for you.  You asked for "advice".  Obviously, he had a drinking problem before the 2 of you married.  I say that because you've been married 10 years, but he has liver problems (I'm assuming from his alcohol intake) which take a while to manifest--usually liver damage shows up after about 15 years of continuous heavy drinking.  Don't quote me on that being specific to everyone--all of us break down alcohol through our pancreas and liver at various levels.  This man is showing you through his own behaviors that HE LOVES ALCOHOL MORE THAN HE LOVES YOU.  Additionally, he is becoming increasingly abusive...how long will you stay with him before he begins physically harming you to the point you end up in a hospital emergency room or worse?  And about the amount of beer he's drinking...quantity of alcohol intake has no relation to whether a person has a problem with alcohol or not.  It's what happens to that person when s/he drinks.  And with your husband, what happens is that he experiences difficulties in his marriage, becomes another person (one who is abusive and dangerous), and he has a past history of failed relationships.  I would venture to say he's having problems in other areas of his life such as financial, spiritual, social, vocational, etc.  The bottom line is YOU MUST TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!  And to do that means making some tough choices--IN SPITE OF HOW YOU FEEL TOWARD HIM!!  Go to Al-Anon (a 12-step group made up of family members just like you who have a loved one who is alcoholic).  Or call Al-Anon and ask that someone come to your house to visit with you, preferably at a time your husband is not at home.  And you're probably going to need to leave him (even temporarily), so you can think more clearly, have some peace of mind, and then be able to make more rational decisions for yourself.  REMEMBER: YOU CANNOT DO THIS ALONE.  YOU NEED THE SUPPORT OF OTHERS TO HELP YOU MAKE SOME VERY LIFE-CHANGING DECISIONS.  I do hope this helps you.  And know you are in my thoughts.

Get him a psychiatric evaluation as he may be a danger to himself your doctor can help with this.\n\nCounselling where he can talk thru his problems\n\nBe understanding and let him know how wonderful you think he is & how much you admire him, not just by telling him but by your actions to him.\n\nTry to build up his self esteem, he may have a low opinion of himself.\n\nIs he blaming himself for something like a divorce or a death? \n\nIs he being bullied physically or mentally\n\nCould he be taking drugs? - Some drugs can cause suicidal feelings\n\nHe needs help, your first step should be to talk to his doctor, before he does kill or seriously hurt himself or others\n\n~Good Luck

Frustration, Fear, Fatigue could be just very unhappy with himself.\nDefinitely needs to go for help.  Its not easy to get some one to go willingly when in that state of mind but keep a close I on him I know of suicidal tendencies when in that state of being.If it gets so out of hand the police will take him to a hospital for psychiatric immediate help.  But He might never for give you if he is released with no diagnosis from the hospital \nTrust me been there it happen to me \n\nJust listen to what he has to say, but don't judge, be there for him     I WASN'T PUT ON THIS EARTH TO JUDGE I'm no better than the next person but we all need to be loved     Pay attention to some one you love that's the best advice I can give \nGOOD luck to both of you I hope everything will turn out better for you both \nIts a hard situation and you are a good person for caring

Looks like it could be outburst related to Asperger's Syndrome.  I don't think it could be Tourette's.
