Psych testing

[Amirsmom]

So im supposed to go in to get an official diagnosis. U know one of those tests with a bunch of true/false questions n whatever else. The testing is 5 hours but Medicaid has denied the last 2hours so it will just b 3 hours. Anybody know what this means. They said i do have problems with my mood but the last 2 hrs i dont qualify according to them. I think they should covef all basses what sense does that make. The testing doc appealed it but it was denied. Smh

I had a friend do the testing but that was only because she didn’t have a clear cut diagnosis.

Did your doc have a hard time figuring out what your diagnosis is?

I know the tests are supposed to be fool proof, but I found many of the question would give misleading answers if I didn't explain events that caused to me to feel a certain way even if I knew it wasn't a logical way to feel.

Can you write a little more about who the appointment is with, and whether there's any therapy that comes with it?

Bipolar and PTSD are oftentimes confused.

Are your mood issues due to external events or do they happen for no rhyme or reason?

All of my mood swings are due to my environment which means I am not bipolar. But OMG my moods can be crazy!
