[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would give up for now on a diagnosis because if there were a clear one, you would already know. Unless you have some need to know every facet of her cognition, a battery of cognitive tests in a neuropsychology exam is unlikely to be helpful. I would continue to seek out smart and attuned therapists and psychiatrists to help “conceptualize” her and address the symptoms that present with her personality. [/quote]

You need to stop. If a neuropsych didn’t work for you I am sorry, but you should put things in terms of I statements instead of saying they should already have a diagnosis already! You realize how incredibly insensitive and out of touch that is?

Are you a troll? Why are you out to dissuade anyone from getting a neuropsych? It’s bizarre [/quote]

Take it easy, lady. I seconded this persons post. I always recommend neuropsych evaluations but see the wisdom here. I have a girl the same age as OP who is AuADHD. We worried about bipolar at the time of diagnosis. I also have another teen female family member with complex mental health issues such as attachment disorder, depression, school refusal, and autism. Now give us your credentials since you are coming so hard at people who have literally BTDT.[/quote]
