[QUOTE="1dayatatime, post: 212669, member: 6322"] Thanks for your response and welcome! The neuropsychologist only did one short computer test to check for impulsiveness. T definitely exhibits short attention span and impulsiveness at home but not at school. I didn't know that 6 to 10 hrs of testing was standard. I may have to look into a second opinion. We have two very disordered families - myself included. I have struggled with- anxiety and depression. My mother although not officially diagnosed may be bipolar and is definitely Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). My husband's maternal aunt is bipolar. My father is an recovering alcohol and drug addict. My kids are actually very good at socializing. They both have a lot of friends at school. S - has some quirky behaviors. He is not a fan of clothes - they come off as soon as he gets home. When he does wear clothes he would prefer to wear the same clothes over and over again. He has a couple tics and has exhibits some "OCDish" behaviors - sometimes things HAVE to be in a certain order - this has gotten better over time. No obsessions and no other delays except for slight dygraphia. In fact he had the highest reading level in his class last year. [/QUOTE]
