do try not to worry about the diagnosis, it doesn't change your son any. my immediate concern would be to deal with his hair pulling at night, talk to him and ask why he does this - you might get an answer , look for a fiddle toy (there are lots of different ones on the market) and give him a note pad for the side of his bed so he can write down things he feels he needs to remember. These are things that helped my child settle a little easier and helped him relax - hope it helps
