He gets extremely grossed out from seeing pictures of females while eating. He has thrown up and is fearful of eating at other peoples houses or restaurants.

He has rage disorder, anxiety, and extremely unusual fears. One of the many psychologists we have taken him to felt that he may have asperger's but wasn't 100% sure. One of the biggest issues with him now is that he gets physically sick when he is eating and ...
