I wasn’t talking about my sons autism. I was referring to the fact that I may have autism myselfIt's impossible to give advice not knowing how severe and what his problems are. If stress is a problem then domestic work is less appealing than commercial. If noise is a greater problem then it would be vice versa, but ear plugs etc might be the solution. If he tends to repetitive behaviour, he could have a great time as a bricklayer!
I don't mean to be frivolous, as I know how worrying it is when your son does not develop normally. Mine has had to move schools twice and is now in a pupil referral unit, he's 15 and we still don't know what his problem is. Having said that, does your son have "The knack":
I wish mine did.
Sorry, my bad. You opened with your sons diagnosis, mentioned similar problems yourself, then asked if we knew any electricians with the same problem. I guess I jumped to the wrong conclusion while contemplating my own predicament. I hope you enjoyed the Dilbert clip anyway.I wasn’t talking about my sons autism.

Lol no worriesIt's impossible to give advice not knowing how severe and what his problems are. If stress is a problem then domestic work is less appealing than commercial.

I've had tinnitus for the past 6 years, it drives me mad.but I wouldn’t mind the ringing in me ears stopping
Should have worn the ear defenders!!!!!!!!!!I've had tinnitus for the past 6 years, it drives me mad.
I always have and always do.Should have worn the ear defenders!!!!!!!!!!
Haha well depends on his reaction if the sandwich is not available! If he has a meltdown and can't continue with normal life until the sandwich is there then yes that would need long into a diagnosis, same with depression, bipolar, OCD etc, and all the other mental diagnoses possible. But we can all learn something about ourselves that may make us happier in the long term if we realise we are slightly along that road even if nowhere near a problem.We all have our traits, its called character an everyone is a bit odd, I worked with a guy who's mate told me that he also had a ham sandwich for lunch, is he autistic ro just likes ham sandwiches?
Only had it since I stopped the car with my face, if you’ve had it 6 years I feel for you its driving me insane!I've had tinnitus for the past 6 years, it drives me mad.
Autism is on the rise because as a society everything we eat and deiAutism is a developmental disorder of variable severity that is characterised by difficulty in social interaction and communication and by restricted or repetitive patterns of thought and behaviour.
In some cases its just a label that has become popular in the last few years, if a parents child is being a dick then will say he is "autistic" and the other parents will agree, it the old days he's get a slap.

Me for a start, I don't like losing tools and stuff so if I can't find my pliers, I need to find them........
mental health and physical go hand in hand. Everything we eat and drink nowadays is full of chemicals. Even vaccines contain aluminium and mercury. This crosses the blood brain barrier and causes autism. It’s even listed on the CDC website as a side affect of certain vaccines. The world we live in is not a healthy one. Toxins, pollution, we don’t spend enough time outdoors and therefore don’t get enough vitamin D , we are on phones too much, we stress too much, care too much about money and work, don’t sleep enough, the list goes on. This has been the case for the past 50 odd years. Gluten intolerance is another one. That has only become a problem in the past 40 years. Around the same amount of time as they have been producing GMO corn, wheat. It isn’t a coincidence. It’s not the gluten, it’s the chemicals used to produce the grains. Anyway to get back on point, my son is severely autistic and has a meltdown over something as simple as losing a teddy bear. Not a tantrum, a meltdown, a sort of mental breakdown. I also have similar things when stressed, just on a smaller scale. Get overwhelmed easy can’t concentrate. If I make a mistake I will worry about it for the rest of the week. I constantly worry about the boss thinking I’m a rubbish spark and I don’t work fast enoughHaha well depends on his reaction if the sandwich is not available!

Mental health has negative connotations, but maybe we should pay attention to it in the same way as our physical health.
This is a subject close to my heart so I'm really pleased people are happy to discuss
I forgot to add every day for 20 years, to be honest most of the people that I have met over the years that have a screw loose are usually the happiest ones in the room, just don't get stuck in a corner of the room with someone ----ed suffering from Tourettes......... /VOEHaha well depends on his reaction if the sandwich is not available!

Yep, you do get used to it-I've had tinnitus for so long that if it disappeared tomorrow I'd struggle to adapt to the silence!You'll learn to block it out eventually. I'd like to blame mine on the powertools, but thinking back to all those clubbing nights hugging the speakers I think I was doomed anyway. You think two days with your ears ringing after a night out is no big thing when you're young and stupid.
