Is there anyone that would be willing to help our family? My nephew has fragile X syndrome and he just turned 18 and now he is having many different behavior problems such as delusions psychotic behavior and rage fits. The hospitals and medical professionals in our area do not know anything about it. They can not help us and we are so afraid he is going to hurt someone or himself. Please if anyone can help please comment here and i will give you a way to reach me! Thank you for what you do! This syndrome is cery hard on the patient and the family
