Re: need suggestions for mood issues

[Guest guest]

Hi .. yep that's some of what I saw too., Initially I thought

GABA was working.. with my son things seem to work for a few days

and then it all goes " south " . He was crabby, crabby, crabby! The

very thing we were trying to fix got worse!

He had worse self regulation issues and at times the least little

thing with trigger his losing control and nothing would fix it.

After his tantrum, he would be calm and tell me exactly what he had

done wrong.. but during it there was no way to reach him. This was

intermittent and was not his temperament post " loss of diagnosis " ..

this developed over a year later.

But seems to be leveled out now with the oxytocin nasal spray. I

love that stuff! I found several things on oxytocin and autism on

the web that I am glad to put on the list if anyone is interested or

in the files... not sure if that's OK on this list so maybe Lynne

can let me know. I have gotten a lot of private posts about it

lately and can't seem to answer them individually.
