[QUOTE="keista, post: 470485, member: 11965"] So we had the psychiatric evaluation today and my brain is spinning into jello. I'm speechless, I'm flabbergasted, I'm ......... psychiatric saw DEFINITE Spectrum *traits* Yes, she is absolutely NOT textbook, but she's not textbook for ANYTHING. Yes, definite co-morbidity with anxiety/mood disorders, BUT LOTS of spectrum *traits* And I knew for a fact that DD1 has some sensory issues, but psychiatric said she was EXTREMELY sensory. OMG! And here I am thinking that I am so in tune and aware of my kids! Right now I feel like I just fell off a turnip truck! I've been quite oblivious. The traits were too vague for psychiatric to say if she was on the spectrum for sure. She's got to go over the evaluations and score them. Will take about a week. The good news is, that there isn't much that I would do different at home. At school, I will be able to get her some more supports. (I hope) The better news is that I have already begun looking at her behavior differently. This does nothing for her specifically, but certainly reduces [B]MY [/B]frustration levels, making me more patient. :) So, yeah, WOW. [/QUOTE]
