[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Extensive family history of both ADHD and ASD. We were concerned about our five year old due to some behaviors we see so got a neuropsych eval on the recommendation of our ped. That found no ADHD or ASD but a language delay so we started speech therapy. The speech therapist is very well regarded and experienced and just told us she thinks this is actually just anxiety, causing both language issues and executive function challenges. Has anyone experienced this with their kid? What helped? Thank you. [/quote] Adhd Dx won’t happen until the school chimes in not just home life Asd Dx usually come later, after the adhd dx, once homework ramps up and rotating classes, tests, managing time demands. [/quote] This makes no sense. ASD is visible well before elementary school. In fact, ASD is often well managed by the structure and routine of higher grades in school, and more obvious in the chaotic environments of early childhood. [/quote]
