[QUOTE="keista, post: 453079, member: 11965"] Wow! And Welcome! What you described sounds VERY much like AS WITH other stuff going on. In other words, in my opinion the AS diagnosis is correct, and now other things are manifesting/emerging now that you are addressing AS behavior issues. Most of our kids on this board have more than one diagnosis at a time, and as they get older, the dxes can change or new ones added because new symptoms either start to emerge, or become more clear once original symptoms are addressed. That does NOT sound like an AS trait. I could be wrong, I only know about 20 ppl with AS and they say "once you know a kid with AS you ONLY know [B]ONE[/B] kid with AS" But to me, it sounds like something more? Partial seizures, psychotic episode which could be attributed to various things - bipolar, schitzoaffective disorder, schizophrenia, and possibly other stuff I personally don't know about. It's a shame you didn't get an IEP through the public school. Sounds like she needed it. I'm not sure if it's a local or national thing, but here, kids with IEPs have the opportunity to go to private schools via a scholarship program. Does your private school have a formal "contract" like an IEP with goals and accommodations for your daughter? If they have such a process, please explore it. It will protect her rights within the school if behavior becomes a BIG issue. Welcome again. :notalone: [/QUOTE]
