Parents seperated when he was 2yrs , Seperation anxiety issues, demanding of attention due to insecurities during 3yr high conflict Family court case which has effected all. I feel behaviour issues hav`nt been helped by the situation.Previously I have observed the now 5yr old in a trance like state, once when he caught his finger in a draw , he ran out of the room I followed and he was asleep on the floor like in a few seconds, annother when picked up from his Mother he was dehydrated and was trance like for sometime, another he was sitting at the table and suddenly his eyes rolled and he started to fall off the chair. He is quite intelligent although at times he does`nt listen but when you talk to him he did hear what was said to him and can be disruptive usually to get attention and can hit out and bite out of the blue.He has no problem playing games of the latest X-Box games and is focused on the things he is interested in. I have no problem in getting him to behave by calmly talking to him. Does not like going to sleep n probably does not get enough sleep and he is very fussy in regard to food. Mother now has him on Dexamphethamine , she cannot control him ,she has cruel ways of disapline and he clashes with her. Dr. said he has not dignosed ADHD and has said does`nt matter if he has breaks from the pills while he is at Dad`s house which is 46% of the time. This is called holiday breaks?Since the pills started he is becoming hyperactive at Dad`s when he `s not on pills whereas before he was much more calm. I am wondering if he has a mild form of epilespy.( Absent seziures). Phyciarst stated 3 yrs ago behaviour problems more likley due to seperation than false allegations by the Mother. I am concerned about the drug and if he should be on them at all and the effects on a 5 yr old brain and the fact that he only has the pills when he is with her, and now I don`t know how he is at Mum`s but now he is acting out more at Dad`s. All very complex.
