diagnosis

Hi. dx=diagnosis.
Has your child experienced psychosis? Have they now been dx with autism? Could you give some more information please?

my little boy is 4 and had asd, he went through a phase of seeing things that completely werent there he still does occassionally but not often as it was i dont know why it was all rather strange as he would stop suddenly, point to the sky and say/sign dog or equally random things! thats only vague experience i have of these things so not much use but thought i would share!
