Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Please understand your child. Whether he is ADHD, autistic or having learning disability, all these issues can be managed with the help of continuous patient training. I repeat, The training is to be given patiently. Medicines can help in managing anxiety and other issues, but behavior and habits seldom change. With the help of behavior therapy and play therapy, behavioral changes should be imparted.

For that purpose, caregivers should learn about their child, understand them and understand the problems like ADHD and LD. Please work with the psychologist who treats your child for techniques or therapies and train him. Could take time but essential and is the only way.
