I have been doing a lot of research on the internet lately to see if there is any other natural things that may be of use to my severe autistic 13 yr old daughter for self injury. I have seen a lot of people try supplements B6, Calcium, Magnesium, & DMG and some have had a lot of success. Just wondering if anyone has tried these with their child? and the outcomes? Any negative effects?
I've given my son B6 and Magnesium together before. After a few months, it seemed to lesson his hyperactivity. I gave him DMG when he was younger, but I don't remember how well it worked.
I was lucky could not grow a mustache till about 20yrs but was able to handle it thank goodness.
Hi everyone
This is is my first time posting.
I hope everyone is doing well.
Has anyone ever dealt with uncontrollable laughter.
I have recently been struggling to get my son to stop this behavior.
He Only calms down when is on clonidine. When the medication wears off he can go on and on.
Does anyone know of any natural medication, or supplements that can help keep him calm when is not on clonidine.?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

My husband received an offer for a government job in TX ( we can live anywhere in the state, where we live will determine which location he will work in) Our biggest concern is finding an appropriate school district for our son to make sure all of his needs are meet. I did research online and I get conflicting information. Some websites say TX is horrible for children with Autism others state its decent. My son's current school district in NJ is awesome. He gets all of his therapies in school… read more
You are welcome.
Has anyone had a typical buddy written in their IEP? Like a social goal where their kid was paired with another student to help them practice making friends or help ease anxiety around social situations at school? Can you tell me what that looked like? I’m looking for ideas.
@A MyAutismTeam Member that’s fantastic!

Our son is smart, but difficult to get him to do his schoolwork/homework. He loves to work on the computer and I think this may inspire him. His teachers think it's a good idea, but we can't afford one now.
Look up free grants for ipads for children with autism. If your son's teachers can include letters of recommendations, it will help in the grant process.
