I have a 10 years old with Aspergers and severe ADHD that seems to have 3 different "personalities"  He isn't delusional or schzophrenic (don't know if I spelled that right) but he is strictly and always 1 of 3 ways.  Never a mixture.  He is either:

1.  extremely hyper and silly and wants to have EVERYONE's attention in the most unappropriate ways....

2.  scared, angry, easily irratated and VERY ultra sensitive with both his normal senses (ie, hearing, smell, touch) or his emotions are just off the wall.....

3. or a very normal, well adjusted, smart and responsible loving 10 year old boy. 

Now, does anyone think that it is possible for one "personality" to be the ADHD and the other Asperger's or is it impossible to inter-change syndroms/disorders.  I know this sounds like a stupid and ignorant question, but I would really like to know if there are other people, especially children out there like this and what you do to help them when they are the second??

I am seriously realizing that we may have to add bi-polar to the ever growing list of diagnoses.
