[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 189475, member: 1498"] Sorry, there are no objective tests to diagnose any of these disorders. Virtually all diagnoses are made by evaluating reported and observed behaviors. Even the idea that there is a chemical imbalance which causes a disorder is a theory. Not only is there no way to measure brain chemical balance, there is no way to determine what amounts of any of the chemicals there should be. Drugs definitely change brain chemistry but the results are unpredictable. Sometimes they help, sometimes they do nothing, sometimes they make things far worse. [/QUOTE]
