[QUOTE="Lea, post: 679119, member: 20037"] Hi InsaneCdn, What kind of "comprehensive evaluation"? He is 40 years old now. In his mid 20's we had him seeing a psychologist who did some testing and said his IQ was on the low end of the average range. (We were trying to figure out why he couldn't hold a job.) He also said he was depressed. But, my son said he wasn't, but did agree to take an anti-depressant for awhile. We never saw any difference. I don't know what kind of services there would be available to him, because I don't think his disabilities are severe enough for assistance. He definitely has behavioral and learning disability. I think his attitude is his worst enemy, though. I have always felt he kind of "fell through the cracks", because he seems normal enough, but his thought process clearly isn't normal. He waits until the very last minute to deal with crap. He looks at things unrealistically. He lacks discipline to go to a job every day on time, when he does have one. The list goes on and on. I'm so weary trying to figure out his issues. [/QUOTE]
