[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 661406, member: 11791"] The same "titles" as the ones that gave us no help in the child and youth systems. Licensed clinical psychologist for talk therapy, and psychiatrist for medications. Between the two of them, nailed the remaining diagnoses within 4 months. Two differences here (I'm not in the US) between under-age and adult services: 1) they are NOT willing to give serious, life-long diagnoses before the age 18, unless it is so severe that it is obvious. 2) they are NOT willing to listen to the patient, or to parents, until the patient reaches the age 18 (and even then, will only listen to parents with permission from patient) [/QUOTE]
