[QUOTE="keista, post: 469435, member: 11965"] Hmmmmmmmmm Trying to digest everyone's comments. The forms are what they are. I'm trying not to get too anxious about it. I do have a parent report of sorts written out. There are always things I end up forgetting, so that is a good reference. I also want to focus on non-medicated behaviors, so that leaves me the last 2 months and 2 years ago. Which still kinda worries me because she's been VERY 'normal' since her last explosion at school in the cafeteria. About a month now. There have been a few hiccups, but nothing I would consider extreme, intense, or abnormal - very much mild typical teen stuff. I'm just really curious what this doctor will find (if anything) regarding Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). I'm so open to the idea it's not even funny, but I just don't think it's there. All her 'Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) traits' are better explained via anxiety. Eh, we'll see. The appointment is Monday. The biggest concern, as always, is DD1's cooperation. She still doesn't like to talk or think about these things. This doctor made a big deal about how she needs DD1 "at her best", so we'll see. I don't think I can ever give any of these docs a DD1 at her best. [/QUOTE]
