Does PDD-NOS gradually disappear as they get older?

I've heard from several sources that unlike other branches of autism like Aspergers, PDD-NOS can be outgrown or disappears in adult life. Can I get some input from some mental health professionals with experience with people with it? My 4 year old daughter was just diagnosed with it and she loves trains and spends most if not all of her alone time jumping and flapping her arms in a corner and talking to herself under her breath. I love her to bits. I'm just wondering if it will stay with her as she grows up. Any help will be strongly appreciated.Does PDD-NOS gradually disappear as they get older?
Jessica,



First, big hug, a diagnosis at any time can be very stressful with so many unknowns and so many questions that can't be answered.



Every child is different, and sadly there isn't a crystal ball that will tell us where your daughter will be five, ten or twenty years from now.



She may be independent when she's older, she may not, your role will be to reach for the stars, to provide what she'll need to be successful, to ensure she reaches her highest potential and accept that no matter what it may be.



You may wish to seek out various therapies such as speech/language, sensory, diets, etc. If you plan to try a biomedical approach my only recommendation would be that you rule out genetic conditions that may be the root cause, such a angelman, rett or fragile X syndrome as those therapies will not correct the genetic problem. A trip to a genetic counselor could be a wise decision before spending thousands of dollars on therapies that may not help.



Think about what you think her education should look like, will she have the opportunity to model positive behaviors, will she be with peers who will aide in her learning?



As for sources you may have heard from, it's important when viewing the sources to determine if the site/source is credible, reliable, this website might help:

Autism is not a mental disorder--these "professionals" have NO idea to treat it.



PDD (or autism, or whatever they're calling it) is really heavy metal toxicity. Without removing these neurotoxins your daughter will only get worse. You should pass on future vaccines, IMO.



The good news is that there is hope for recovery. Please check out Andrew Cutler chelation. And check these sites:

Doctors reversing autism do not look at PDD, NOS, Asperger's, Autism and ADHD differently. They are all treated for pathogens and toxins. Check out www.generationrescue.org to find local parents talk about local services. Check out www.heidinotes.com to see my views. My children are recovered.
