Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

impulsivity is part of autism and in that case, he needs mood stabilizer that would control such self harming behavior. You should consult a psychiatrist for that. These drugs are not available over the counter. In case, you need my help, you can consult me.

Thanks
