I request you to consult a clinical psychologist who shall be able to make your son undergo psychometric tests to diagnose these problems. Once diagnosed, medicine as well as psychotherapy should be started. You should work with your psychiatrist / psychologist for better result.If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.Hope this answers your query.
