[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 383303, member: 7664"] Ok, I know he's on the spectrum, but I have a number of people telling me that his behavior seems to go beyond spectrum and into mental illness; like bipolar. I am trying to discern whether his behavior in that situation is 1) spectrum 2)spectrum + adhd 3) spectrum + mania. I have avoided neuropsychologist's because honestly he looks very autistic when he is put in a room with people he doesn't know- and what I mean by 'very autistic' is that he does not demonstrate his verbal ability at all, he stims and makes weird noises and just looks like a different person. I just don't think they'd be able to get a real assessment on all facets of who he is if one large part is hidden in their presence. [/QUOTE]
