Natural Supplements To Deal With Uncontrollable Laughter

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭
Johannesburg, ZA

Hi everyone

This is is my first time posting.
I hope everyone is doing well.
Has anyone ever dealt with uncontrollable laughter.

I have recently been struggling to get my son to stop this behavior.
He Only calms down when is on clonidine. When the medication wears off he can go on and on.

Does anyone know of any natural medication, or supplements that can help keep him calm when is not on clonidine.?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hi @A MyAutismTeam Member
My son was laughing uncontrollable throughout the day.
I could tell something was wrong, because he also struggles to sleep.
The doctor changed his meds, put him on meds to help with sleep.
Somehow the behavior stopped, when he started sleeping better.
What I mean, is that he stopped laughing throughout the day for no reason.
Have a good day!

Wondering what you mean by uncomfortable laughter.
My son laughs at things like death and no matter how much I try to explain it to him over the years he still does it more often than not. He sometimes with do it and say thats not funny but has never grown out of it. Laughs about his own family members who have past. He currently is 16.
