[quote=Anonymous]We had similar struggles starting with DD at age 7. It turned out to be autism, ADHD and exceptional giftedness. But the specific diagnoses don’t matter. Maybe, like other posters said, it’s OCD. The important thing is not to make any assumptions now. Hopefully the assessment in June is going to be a full neuropsych. They should be able to tease out what the core issue is. Also, thank you to all the previous posters, who said not to be afraid of medication. We wish we had started earlier. I’m grateful every day for the amazing resources we have, including medication and better mental health awareness. We aren’t such a better place now. Please make sure to take care of yourself. Your attitude and energy level are contagious, for better or for worse. I’m glad that you have an equal partner in this. Wish you the best of luck.[/quote]
