Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I m in need to find a psychiatrist who can help correctly diagnose my mental health condition. I m a 39yr old adult who has struggled my whole life with what I thought was a learning disability. I have struggled because there is no defined treatment for learning dissabilities. I was told to expect to always struggle. This past yr. my social worker advised me that I may not have been correctly diagnosed. She said from her education and experience, my symptoms are more like those that have ADD. Not of LD or ADHD. She suggested I seek out a Dr. to appropriately diagnose me and offer solutions for treatment. Can you help me?
