[quote=Anonymous]I thought my DD possibly had autism, as did her therapist, so I had her evaluated right before her 14th bday. She is very rigid, is sensitive to changes in routine, has niche interests, still has meltdowns, has a hard time making and maintaining friends. The neuropsych report found that while she met the threshold for restricted and repetitive behaviors, she did not meet the criteria for qualitative impairments in social interaction; it said those issues were rooted in anxiety. I used to think the spectrum was too broad, but if my dd isn't even on it, maybe the dsm knows what it's talking about - assuming providers apply those standards.[/quote]
