[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since most of the time you are treating the symptoms, I don't know that the diagnosis always matters. [/quote] Speaking as someone who grew up with a chronic (very rare, like <30 in the world) condition, it's nice to have a diagnosis even if you are only treating the symptoms. It's good to know "why" you're different. [/quote] Yes, but for a younger child, I think a general explanation will suffice. My dc has bits and pieces of many things (adhd, ld, sensory, social issues). The therapists are treating the person, not the label. OP, are you trying to get a specific diagnosis to get more services from your school? If not, then I don't understand why the diagnosis/label is so important.[/quote]
