[quote=Anonymous]I think if you do a neuropsych you should go to someone with expertise in autism. Not because I think this sounds like autism but because there are some characteristics and an expert can definitively diagnose or rule it out. Many psychologists lack expertise in autism. I have had two friends who had psychologists say their kid just had anxiety, then a subsequent evaluation found autism. You could also look into a psychiatric evaluation. These can also diagnose autism or adhd and then you will be set up with a psychiatrist if there is a need for medication.[/quote]
