Do you really think its possible to fool the psychiatrist? Oh I hope not. There were two visits to he Dr. The first visit was a sit down interview with him and then the second visit, a week later, was the actual testing.
He's been under the care of another psychiatrist since he was 12 for ADHD. I thought that was the only issue (impulse control and processing issues) until this year. Because he was so disruptive and unable to get along with anybody and could never tell the truth about anything as well as his demeanor getting worse, I made him go to a psychotherapist to help him with his attitude etc. It wasn't until we saw her, that we realized that we had a real problem on our hands. Then we requested his files from the psychiatrist that had been treating him since he was 12 for ADHD and come to find out, he had written several observations about him, however, none were supplied to me. He characterized him as being "highly manipulative", "peter pan syndrome" and other things to suggest possibly a personality disorder.
And yes, the rage has begun. I only hope that I am doing the right thing. I see it as standing firm on my requirements now to help his future, otherwise, I fear he will be living a very lonely life.
