ADD, Angry, Low Self Esteem, Anti Social, Becomes Violent Frequently. Advise?

My son is a 18 year male with ADD supposedly. He is stuggling with anger enough to hurt himself and me. I am 50 years female who has been out of worked for over a year now dealing with chronic pain. Had a cervical fusion which has compromised all disc with added buldging disc and arthuritis. He becomes very violent at times, not all the time. low self esteem, anti social, even at church. Pastor suggested that we get him tested for a chemical embalance. What else can I expect if he does have a chemical embalance?
