ADHD son who repeats questions several times

My son is 23 years old, Diagnosed with asperger. He keeps repeating the  the same question over and over again. and always talk of negative things. He was sacked from school when he was 15 years as he hit the teacher. but a gentle hit, and now he keeps telling that he was sacked because he touched the teacher each day several times. and becomes violent. his command of language is very good and his memory is also very good. how can we cure him?

Meds only work for a specific time period.  Part of his problems may be happening cause Meds no longer in system.  With ADHD you tend to hyper focus.  Meds will help , as long as they are in system.  What's he on an I can tell you how long they should last.
   He also needs behavioral help from a psyc.

   Simple answer is stim meds like Ritalin or adderall.  Much more detailed answer in this post I did.  It's the last post.

  None of those are adhd meds.  Resperidone is a strong antipsychotic,  if his problems have gotten worse since being on it, it may be the problem.  Other med is for seizures, etc.
