[quote=Anonymous]NP who has seen psychiatrists for most of her life here. By all means ask the doctor about it. But I would encourage you to understand that diagnoses are for insurance companies. They truly don't matter much outside of that. They are just labels from the DSM that potentially inform what meds the insurance company is willing to pay for. A good psychiatrist evaluates and treats symptoms. There is a huge amount of symptom overlap in psychiatric conditions. And your DS's symptoms are what they are whatever you (or the doctor or the psychologist or whomever) call them. [/quote]
