Miguel has more testing today. Partly because the adhd/antidepressant meds are not helping his picking and to get another opinion before his file is changed to a mental health category. Also our clinic re-evaluates every 3 years it may be more often as a kid.

Kep your fingers crossed that he'll be completely honest.

He told her everything and more (ie. about mind craft). He did 3 hours of testing and we did 3 hours of circling in questions. My T walked by and goes "is that test (name)?", "yeah probably...he's upstairs". I'm kinda upset that she could tell the test even folded across a room but I guess it's a good thing right?

We'll get a copy of it as well as his pdoc and T. Hopefully it wont take to long.

They probably just know the tests so well and what tests were to be given, so it was easy to guess. No worries. I hope it will be done soon so you can all go home and relax after a stressful day.

My husband was surprised how long it was because his intake was an hour and a little. We joke how mine was 4 hours because they didn't know whether to let me go home manic or not. Silly me showing up to intake manic.

Now tomorrow is the hard part. I ask pdoc for an anti-psychotic and to up my mood stabilizer. God this feels like defeat.
