Early intervention only happens when the parents stop being in denial

I have a vague feeling that doctors also have to stop being in denial…
My parents were very proactive. I was in child therapy and diagnosed with SO many other things because the docs didn’t want to stick the Sz label on me Too young.
I got taken to so many docs and there was a lot of family therapy in my life.
Docs would tell my parents… "Oh it’s NOT Sz… it’s puberty… hormones… OCD… PTSD from the house fire… anxiety… growing pains… "
Sometimes I feel… if the docs would have just said… “Ok… yes… Sz” when I was younger… that might have helped put my parents get the answers they needed… just a ponder.
