If I could find a way to do just that, I would. I forgot to mention however, that I've been diagnosed not only by my therapist, but by my old pdoc and after some extensive neuropsychiatric evaluation by a neurologist. So that's three opinions. I'm not sure if getting a fourth would yield different results, but maybe. I honestly wouldn't even know how to go about doing that as I'm not totally independent in my treatment as of right now.
