[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 342691, member: 1963"] I was wondering about that as well. Tdocs aren't usually qualified to make diagnoses. They can flag things for a psychiatrist or neuropsychologist to check out, but they are not authorized to issue exact diagnoses so far as I know. My AS diagnosis came from a neuropsychologist flagged with "rule out bipolar disorder". My bipolar was formally diagnosed by a psychiatrist after a LONG intake appointment, and that despite my having an extremely strong family history (my dad and sister both were/are bipolar) My mom's just an Aspie--she got off light, LoL.
