Ymann, I don't have any answers for you, although my nephew has Aspergers and ADHD. But there a ton of sites on the web for info and support. You can Google "PPD-NOS" to pull them up. Here's a few:
-
Emory University Autism Center
-
New York State Department of Health
-
iVillage's PDD-NOS/Asperger's support message board
