[QUOTE="myfirstandlast, post: 13382, member: 3420"] He doesn't really match your 2) a.-d. factors very well. Some things, to some extent, but that's not him. Not like some of the other descriptions where I'm like "A-HA! That's MY son!!" [img]:wink:[/img] He had pretty extensive testing with the neuropsychologist. Spread over several appointments and yet another stack of questionnaires ... been doing these for years, wish I could just fill out a book of them ONCE and be done! LOL (Patience not my strong suit.) I sat in on his psychiatric appointment. yesterday. He did not want to be the one to lead the conversation about Monday night. He let me explain what happened, had a chance for a rebuttal and said everything happened pretty much the way I explained it. Was very calm and matter-of-fact and stalled a little on describing why he thought he acted the way he did (he felt I yelled too much for the situation, overkill, which could well be) and we both decided that we reacted the way we did because his priority (the science fair experiment) and my priority (the book report) weren't the same and we were not seeing each other's point of view. Family history ... well ... clinical depression and ADD for me ... ADD and possibly even narcissistic dad ... his sister seems to be as 'normal' as a kid can be, so maybe there's hope for one of the four of us. [img]:wink:[/img] [/QUOTE]
