> To Dottie: In general, psychiatric records are different from regular medical records and are not released directly to the patient.I guess I understand. I know I write things in the infants charts sometimes that I would want to explain to caregivers. Perhaps the therapist will give me an overview of what is in the records so I will know what kind of impression she has made of me (since she will have them before even meeting me). Waiting for April 8. Will go in during my work day--schedule appts around it. Really need someone to give me a fresh perspective on me. Doing OK at work but not motivated to do things with others on off time--just come to my safe place to "be".
Question: do you have any sources of information on ID'ing the autism spectrum in infants (8 mos)? I evaled a baby today with no eye contact and no real interst in people, things, environment. Looks for a long time at light sources. does not laught, smile or engage even with mom. Referred for gross motor delay due to prematurity. I do not have much experience with Autism but this seems to be somewhere in that area.
