[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 236570, member: 1991"] A lot of these diagnoses are very subjective. They are man-made labels for a continuum of behaviour that could be partly neurological and heavily environmental, all mixed in together. Basically, unless diagnosis is made by blood test or looking at it down a microscope, always keep an open mind. The same kid can be seen by different people, at different ages and maybe even at different times of te day, and be given a different diagnosis. Does that mean all the labels are correct? Or none? It's very easy to find yourself drowning in alphabet soup when what you need is a meat and three veg diagnosis. Welcome to the site, there is good help here. Marg [/QUOTE]
