I am suspecting my DS11 might have some issues with emotional regulation. He gets angry very easily. Once he "explodes" he can't be reasoned with or calmed down. When really angry he screams and throws things (not at people & usually things that don't break - so there appears to be some self-control). Usually, once he calms down he feels remorseful and beats himself up for losing control.

He also has trouble taking responsibility when he wrongs someone. He'll apologize and be empathetic but it is never his fault.

What type of specialist should I be talking to? What type of evaluation? How do I help him?

Thanks.
