[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 728153, member: 1550"] Did you ever have her evaluated by a neuropsychologist (a psychologist with extra training in the brain? She sounds t o me with the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and sensoey issues and likeness for sameness as if she could be on the high end of the autism spectrum. This is often misdiagnosed by psychiatrists because it is a neurological difference, not a psychiatric problem at its core and does not really respond well to therapy. Many autistics get frNtic panic and fight when forced out of their comfort zones. They need autism interventions and with them they tend to improve ALOT. My son who is doing really well has this and was misdiagnosed many times. To find it requires very intensive testing that psychiatrists and regular psycologists don't do. We had ADHD, bipklar, ODD and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) as wrong diagnosis.although Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and sensoey issues are a big part of autism. So are cluelessness with social skills. My son was being wrongly treated and medicated until age 11. In fact psychologists insisted he did not have autitistic spectrum. They were wrong. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
