[QUOTE="jennd23, post: 441567, member: 11755"] [SIZE=2]SHe had a cancellation this afternoon so she called this morning and asked me to come in. I still have no answers [IMG]http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g164/tiffeecanoe/rolleyes2.gif[/IMG] A summary of her results: he's depressed and anxious...he "might" have mild aspergers but its hard to tell at his age. She said the behavior scores I reported were "off the charts" and that would usually mean to them that the PARENT is certifiably psychotic and should be hospitalized. uhhh...... He doesn't recognize my role as a parent and authority figure, he sees us more as equals (duh) and its causing him anxiety and confusion. He's letting loose @ home because its "safe". She doesn't know why he's depressed or anxious but that's why he's acting out angrily and aggressively because at his age he doesn't know how to express those emotions. She said the other doctor likely diagnosed him Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) because of the differences in his cognitive abilities and social deficits, but THIS doctor thinks if it was that his behavior would be more extreme everywhere, not just home. SHe said socially she "might" consider mild aspergers, he made "some" eye contact in their meeting. Oh, also he's VERY attached to me (shocker...I can't even take a shower by myself) and that doesn't fit the "classic" signs. (nevermind the fact that except for family he doesn't attach to anyone). SO, I don't know. I think the original testing was more thourough and I tend to believe that and his psychiatrist who sees him every month over this lady, not because I don't think she's qualified, I just think the other dr spent more time with him doing more tests.... And to be honest, after thinking for 2 years that he had aspergers, I see it more and more every day. So....Who knows..... [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
