These two conditions are often misdiagnosed, especially early in the illness. Differentiating between them is essential because treatment approaches differ significantly.
For example, different medications may be used to treat differing symptoms found in each condition. Additionally, a faster diagnosis will lead to a more comprehensive treatment plan that can be implemented right away. These treatment plans will evolve over time as clients develop new skills and are able to take on additional responsibilities.
At BrightQuest, we take a comprehensive diagnostic approach, carefully observing symptoms over time, consulting with referring professionals, and working closely with loved ones to ensure clarity and continuity of care.
