I went to my counseling appt. today and when I went in I brought the questionnaire that my psychiatrist used to diagnose me and its results.  She looked them over and said as long as the meds aren't making me feel worse, we'll roll with it. She said that since the psychiatrist and her are working towards the same goal (my mental well-being), there is no reason for her to doubt his diagnosis. She told me she prefers to get to know someone before diagnosing them but different people have different styles. She's started working with me on some of the ADHD stuff today. We talked about how it is going to effect my educational pursuits and what I need to do to overcome the challenges that ADHD poses.
