Anyone with Autism? I am trying to get a diagnosis; if your GP refused to even contemplate you having Autism, and just told you that you have acute anxiety and should move on....would you accept this or go private for a diagnosis? Thanks for answers, can anyone tell me how many sessions it might take to diagnose Asperger's with a private psychiatrist?

From what you're saying, it doesn't sound like autism or Asperger's to me. I don't really know why you're wanting this specific diagnosis. When, most people with (any kind of) problems go to doctors with their symptoms, the doctor figures out what they should/shouldn't be diagnosed with.

Anyway, if you really Asperger, you would have many of the following symptoms: - Problems with the non-verbal communication, gestures, tone of voice, posture, facial expressions - Stuttering and hesitating / difficulty with small talk - Logical and objective view on all that difficult to see how things come across (from elsewhere s) of view - Intensive (or compulsion) interest / fascination with a narrow / specific subject - Knowledge / interest in a particular subject area without regard for its proper context - Away / deep / up-in-the-clouds thinking - Delayed communication (ie, took longer to talk / make / etc) - Hypersensitivity (ie can not tolerate noise or bright light) - Ritual routines / compulsive traits / can not know with what is expected to finish - Odd behavior / habits / thinking / - Excessive daydreaming / in their own world.

There are probably some other symptoms I missed, but anxiety / depression is often a result of having social difficulties. People with such symptoms fail to fit in - they often experience bullying and rejection and therefore can go through anger, depression, bitterness, social anxiety, and the like.

Bottom line is, if the only symptoms you have are social anxiety / depression, then you are far better off dealing with those issues as they are. Being diagnosed with something like autism has major drawbacks.

Alzheimer's disease is a degenerative, incurable, and terminal disease found by Doctor Alois Alzheimer in 1906. A person suffering from this disease has a progressive corrosion of brain cells. The person may look healthy and strong but there will difference in memory thinking, behavior, and speech. However, these signs are ignored by some individuals. They believe that is caused by aging.

Is summary it can be said that Alzheimer's disease is a "degenerative" (that it basic nature is that it is ongoing, that it gets worse, never better) illness of the generally elderly population. How did the name arise? This incurable subset of the set of neurological mental disease in the medical terminology grouping of "dementia" was first noted and described by a medical specialist "Dr. Alois Alzheimer" early in the 19'Th century. The pattern of dementia in the elderly that the doctor described came to be his specialty. Patients sent to the good doctor for assessment and treatment came to be referred to by the doctor's name - Dr. Alzheimer - and suffering and diagnosed with "Alzheimer's Disease".

It also has three different stages with different behavior approaches. Person suffering from an early stage Alzheimer's disease are having difficulty in speaking, perception and execution of movements. Middle stage patients are having problems in memory, frequent crying, resistance to care giving and wandering. The last stage is a severe stage of Alzheimer's disease. The person has totally lost his ability to speak, apathy, and exhaustion. There are said to be the most demanding Alzheimer's disease patient. They need assistance on every task they will do, including feeding themselves.

In addition when meeting with the Alzheimer's patient they may not be able to refer to more recent facts, events and episodes and may refer to past events, situations and landmarks in conversation. For example it may have been well known by the affected patient that family members of yours are deceased some time ago. Yet you may be asked "How are mother and father?" If you had moved from the area years before - you may well be asked how are things at that residence now and the residence described as it was many years ago, not as it is currently.

Alzheimer's disease is one subset of mental dementia and mental faculty deterioration in the elderly. There are other forms and causes of brain dementia and loss of memory function in the aged. Yet at least with Alzheimer's disease the pathology can be identified - there are plaques, there are damaged brain tissue areas. Diagnosis is done through a process of elimination by the medical specialist or medical neurological
