 [ Symptoms ] my 9 year old son has become distant distracted disobedient and agressive at first i thought he was just acting out but now it is different he constantly is lost in his own world i have tried to talk to him but all i get is an ok or when i ask him what is wrong he says he does not know his answer for everything is i do not know or i do not remember he has started banging his off of the wall or table he is emotionally withdrawn he does not care about his punishment it is as if he has forgotten everything i can tell him to do something and if=n five minutes he will ask what he was supposed to do it is as if instead of progress with age he is going in reverse he constantly asks if we love him and if we want him there i am out of options i do not know what to do discipline just does not seem right it is as if he honestly does not remember things but also if he watches a cartoon one time he can act it out from memory help i need answers [ Disease ] hi this is due to a condition called irritable bowel syndrome ibs all the tests will be negative in this case but the intestinal mucosa is very sensitive causing recurrent episodes of diarrhoea intestinal mucosal biopsy will confirm the diagnosis thanks
