Oof, sounds like a tough situation, man. Little guy has a lot of growing up to do, still. How long ago was his last psych test? 'cus I do the shutting myself up in my room. Shrink tells me it’s because of my szpd. If he’s got that, that would make his emotional situation a tad bit more understandable. It usually starts showing up after 11 years, and is expressed more often in males. There’s little more to do with it other than CBT, if the patient thinks it ought to be fixed.
Speaking of CBT, might be something worth looking into. Haven’t tried it myself, at least, not guided by a professional, but I’ve heard great things about it. Best of luck, man. Glad to hear you’re trying your best to help the kid, too many ND kids go without.
His weird humor and odd comments occasionally were less ADHD shutin and more quasi-narcissist based, but it’s kinda typical for all teens so it’s hard to judge. Might be related.
Mostly it was him speaking through memes and when he watches spooky shit he thinks it’s funny to pretend to be schizophrenic or weird weird. Like dude, you have to speak up if that shit is real for you or getting to the point where it’s actually blending with reality vs just being a joke lol.
He’s honestly gotten Waaaaaaay better with joke timing after I had a long talk with him about it now though lol. His delivery when trying to be social was just… Shit. It was shit lol.

Thanks. I’ll look into the szpd stuff.
