[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op again, she's had a neuropsych eval. At the time, she was severely depressed and anxious. Now, she also has clear signs of ocd. She does see a psychiatrist and is currently on zoloft and sees a therapist. She also has sensory disorders.

I can see a lot of benefits to meds (not depressed,  not nearly as anxious, much easier time socially, behavior at home is improved, hitting is rare now...used to happen often for long stretches). For one quarter this year, she was doing well in school too and working independently. I'm not sure what has changed.

I wonder if a new med would help, but I don't really want to change, since I've seen some benefits. She also has some side effects, which although manageable, I'm worried they'd be worse if the dose increased.[/quote]

Sensory disorders and OCD are often associated with high-functioning autism. Just so you know. But the missing assignments could be ADHD.

My son has ADHD/ASD. His psychologist told us that 80% of all autistic kids she sees have comorbid ADHD and OCD.
