[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd be interested in hearing if it works --especially on that last point. This seems more like the social training they do with autistic kids. We've been exploring doing some of that with my ADHD, but not sure how it would work in practice.[/quote] This is 17:05 - DS is also in social skills classes. That said, we are hoping that CBT will help him recognize triggers that prompt him to want to reach out a touch a person - nothing inappropriate, but any touch when someone is not expecting it is socially unacceptable. Some ADHD behaviors cross into ASD territory. does not mean ADHD = ASD, just that there are behaviors that cross-over - I think its mostly the social stuff like missing queues, talking out of turn, blurting out random things. they are not really random to your kid because they're having this conversation in their head, and then they blurt out one of their thoughts and it comes out sounding really strange.
