Maybe give some free advice about: Mental health?
I am probably a lot younger than you, but I hope you listen to me.
If you recognize a problem than their may very well be one. Maybe acting out is a way to get your attention so he will get to go outside.
Doctors may not recognize problems at first, as young as he his, children have their way with people when they want it. Try and take him to a doctor or psycologist that specializes in childrens mental health. Good Luck.

you should show him some discipline and punish him for what he does let him throw a fit but until he behaves he is punished and while you at it take him to a doctor

Even though your child has learning problems, it sounds like he is quite clever as he is suddenly well behaved during trips to the doctors etc. I think he knows that doctors, nurses etc. represent an authority figure therefore he becomes quiet. So you need to be more firm with him showing him that you are in charge and that he needs to respect you as his mother. Let NO mean NO and even if your son smashes up your home, don't give in. In time, he will learn to behave when he realises he can't get what he wants by lashing out. It may also be helpful to give him the reason why he can't go out or do certain things rather than telling him. You can still try a different doctor if you want a professional opinion. It could be a good idea to film your son when he is having bad moments, then you can show that to your doctor as a proof.

I, regretfully, was exactly like your child at his age. My mother gave out the harshest punishments, and I eventually gave up. She even bit me once. I'm not saying you should bite your child, I'm merely suggesting you increase the harshness of your punishments. It's just a suggestion, I'm not sure how your child will react. He may have a negative reaction to negative reinforcement, you could try possitive too. Give him something he wants if he's good all day, or week. But from my experiences, children react more to negative.
