[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 178227, member: 1550"] I didn't really share with family members because they didn't "get" it. in my opinion that's the least of your problems though. Are you interested in a more accurate diagnosis? Has your child ever seen a neuropsychologist? If you did, and you're still not satisfied, I'd see another one (I feel NeuroPsychs are best, BUT they can still miss things). Sounds like whoever threw out the alphabet soup diagnosis. isn't sure what's going on anymore than you are. That can be tough because often the child ends up on medications that not only don't help, but actually make things worse. Firesetting can be quite serious, but also can be caused by antidepressants or stimulants if it makes the child manicky. How was your child's early development: speech, eye contact, playing with peers, did he play appropriately with toys, did he potty on time, did he have sensitivites to light, sound, food? Is there any psychiatric or neurological problems on either side of the family tree? Any substance abuse? Welcome. You did an awesome job with those abbreviations...lol. [/QUOTE]
