[QUOTE="klmno, post: 344138, member: 3699"] Honestly, I'm losing faith in profs ability to diagnosis kids anymore. Too many times it goes back and forth and I hate those questionaires because it seems that most difficult child's would meet the criteria for no matter what the questionnaire was checking for. How does any parent answer questions like "has your child ever..." when they know it will be written up the same in a report whether the child did it one time 5 years ago or has done it 5 times in the past week. And for what? To get the same trial and error approach with medications no matter what diagnosis gets written down and which medication gets tried first. It's not that I don't understand the profs difficult position, but as psychiatrist told me once, learning to understand how a brain functions doesn't mean he has a microscope and can look in difficult child's brain to know for sure what is going on in there.
