[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 285684, member: 1550"] I agree with Timer about the neuropsychologist. As a psychiatric patient myself for thirty years, I've gotten nothing much from therapist evaluations. I love NeuroPych evaluations because they are so intensive. I don't think you should go along with your doctor just because he's a doctor. AD's can be very dangerous. If you think the psychiatrist is all wet, in my opinion trust your Mom Gut. Find somebody else. Get a neuropsychologist evaluation. Bipolar is hard to diagnose and it is normally TEN YEARS from your suspicion that either you or your child has it until it is diagnosed. It can also sometimes be Aspergers--they can mimic each other. So I'd definitely do the neuropsychologist to cover all bases. You don't want your kid on the wrong medications and any professional can make a diagnostic error. Trust me, I know first hand. [/QUOTE]
