[QUOTE="Janna, post: 70720, member: 2737"] I found it interesting, too, Star. Not to bring up fires and big debates ~ wasn't why I put it here. I just happen to notice on this board alot lately that people blame the psychiatrists for things that the psychiatrists have no control over, i.e. giving the medication that doesn't work, or diagnosis'ing wrong. As you can clearly see, everything is pretty much a guess from a bunch of psychiatrists out of a book. In my own case, I do see some mania in Dylan, and I do see some quirks from the Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), but it wouldn't surprise me in 5 years if the Bipolar diagnosis disappeared and he turned out to be solely Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) or vice versa. Our psychiatrist, who I love, isn't sure. The kid is 10. He's trying with the medications. Some work, some don't. Don't expect miracles. They don't happen. And no, there is no "test". I'm off to bed lol. (All those docs were laughing, Star ~ eek) [/QUOTE]
