Hi all
My problems started with my son when he was around 8 month old he started banging his head and biting his self but he never cried he use to do it with quite a lot of force i had to pick him up to stop him doing it then he would start banging his head of my chest what hurt very much. I was thinking to my self he is just a baby so he would probably grow out of it, He started nursery when he was 3 and things were just getting worse he never liked being with the other children and he would try and bite them or nip them his teachers were getting worried so there refered him to a child doctor she told me he was just going through the terrible twos so i thought great he will grow out of it. Now my son is coming up to 7 and over the years its just gone from bad to worse he is under average on his school work he will only do subjects he is interested in this is art and he loves gardening. His behaviour is out of control his siblings wont even go next to him any more in case he flys of the handle i have to be careful what i say to him or he will just explode. I have a problems with him when its bedtime he wont sleep then he doesn't want to get up for school the next morning he will not get ready for school i have to physically get him ready but he is a very strong boy he just pushes me out of the way. He as started going in his bedroom he will only come down for his meals he always wants to be on his own his brother shares a bedroom with him he says to me he hid,s under his cover and starts talking to some one. What i find odd is that he takes things from around the house and hides them in his room and i ask him if he as had them but he cant seem to remember he looks all confused. I have had him to the doctors again and there said there are going to refer him maybe for play therapy i cant see why he needs play therapy. Im getting to the point now were i need some ideas what might be wrong with him as this as been going on now for 6 and a halv years any help would be very much appreciated xxxx

I had him to the doctors yesterday his doctor is referring him to CHAMES to get him asset he was even talking about there was a possibility he may have to come out of mainstream school and attend another school for a while witch i was gob smacked about i didn't expect him saying that, he never give me any idea whats wrong with him he just said we need it sorting so i have still got no idea what could be wrong with my little fella.
I have been talking to his teacher today, she said if the doctors have referred him to CHAMES then he will be seen by a phycologist , So im just waiting to here from them now hopefully it wont be to long and i may get my little fella sorted fingers xxxx Thanks for all your help i really appreciate it.
