What's The Best Therapy For Language Struggles?

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭
Lafayette, CO

My 7-year-old still struggles with his language skills. He knows what he wants to say, but can't find the words or mixes up the words. What's a successful form of therapy to help him with this? I've heard OT, or neuro type therapies tend to help "wake up" that part of the brain. He gets a little private OT, but I'm thinking it's not enough. Any advice would be helpful.

Has Anyone Trid Neurofeedback?

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭
Charlottesville, VA

I just read about it yesterday. My son is 8, high functioning maybe Aspergers, he makes good eye contact with me but not so much with other people. He plays well with other children most of the time, has some anxiety and some attention problems but nothing that we feel needs medicating.

So I am just wondering if anyone has had good, bad or neutral results from this. I am loathe to spend a lot of money on false hope cure stuff, but if it is a genuine treatment option I would do anything to… read more

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭
West Hempstead, NY

My son was recently prescribed Celaxa 10mg to help with anxiety issues. He's only 10 years old. He is currently on Focalin XR 10mg for ADHD. I have to admit that I'm not crazy about all these drugs, especially when you read about all the possible side effects. Advice, please!!!

My niece is 5 and on celexa, I am shocked she can be on that at such a young age! Side effects are mild (I am on celexa myself) but as for my niece I don't see any difference in her behavior or even… read more

Can anyone help me determine how we can help our son with mood swings during puberty? It has been suggested that I put him on mod enhancement medication to take the edge off but I am not in favor of that. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.
