When Hyper Harrison came into your office, you weren’t sure what to think. During the third session, you are confident in an ADHD diagnosis. When you announce this, the family looks and sounds relieved. What is happening here?
  1. All that time and they can finally leave
  2. Understanding is coming for years’ worth of misbehavior
  3. The family is developing a group reaction to an individual’s diagnosis
  4. The family is in shock and doesn’t know how to react or respond
Explanation
Answer - C - There is a reaction to a diagnosis that is forming in the room. The calm could be a response to knowledge of what has been coming for a long time, but that they had no details to back up claims. With assessments complete, treatment can proceed as planned and hopefully return Harrison to his baseline of attention and activity.
