[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 115099, member: 393"] Triple J, I had the same problem - I had prepared myself & researched all the unofficial diagnosis's for the tweedles. My parent report included so many of the "normal" daily activites but when the pros got to the issues that brought them there, the pros were stunned by my level of knowledge. Having said that, I sat in meetings "learning" all that I already knew about kt & wm - then edited my parent report & it was accepted. I thought it to be a politically correct issue. My therapist pointed out that most parents, even parents with issues this extreme, don't know the terms dissociative or how it is applied to their child. The professionals become weary of that level of knowledge. on the other hand, another doctor told me that their profession isn't comfortable with a medically savvy parent. It's a just the facts, maam, kind of thing here. Dummy yourself up for a bit & then let your true warrior mum self show. Good luck with the admit/paperwork process. Keep copies! (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
