My son Matt and his Autistic Rage is nothing short of a miracle. The people at his group home keep him on a pretty short leash and I say that I would run out of patience myself but he is doing great. He calls here every day and carries on a normal conversation like a regular person. He does have a bit of rough days but I do think the Indural Beta Blocker is working on his Autistic Rage or what they call beta rage. 

This started as a problem when he got about 14 and his hormones came in. He went to the mental hospital for a week at that point. They gave him therepy and adjusted his meds and calmed him down and sent him home. After that he was hospitalized many, many times. Usually for a few days then once for 6 months then 3 years that ended in July of 2009 where he got into his group home.

The sad thing is that people have known about this property of beta blockers since 1990. I mean I did a search on the subject on Google and found articles going back that far. I tell you that I wish I had known about this back then. A lot of heart ache and expense could have been saved.  Who knows why we had to wait this long. I do know there are a lot of people are searching for the subject and I don’t think anyone else is writing about it. I hope this helps someone. – Bob
