Thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention...
She also had me concerned when I noticed her whispering to herself frequently. When i questioned her it turned out she was repeating 3 things that she was trying to remember. I asked how long she'd been doing it and she said for a few weeks and started to cry because she said she would forget them forever she didn't keep saying them. I knew she was serious because he had made a few comments over the weeks about trying to remember something - it took a while before i connected the comments with the whispering. Well, a big OCD flag went up for me and I told her she didn't have to do that. Together we wrote the 3 things on a post-it note and put it in her jewelry box so she can rest assured and not have the extra burden of trying to remember like that. Poor kid. That seemed to helpSo - i was really thinking OCD but then I think it may just be that her hard drive is full. Is it possible that some brains just have less MB and get over loaded more easily? Now she will often run up to me and say "you have to remember this" and she'll tell me the Important Thing which may be a melody she just came up with, a tv show she wants to watch, a toy she saw on a commercial, etc.
As far as OCD tendencies...she has a few other flags but it's not getting in her way. From what I said does it seem more OCD or Low Working Memory?
SHe had WISC IV and WJ-III. I will check the achievement testing but I recall she was on or above grade level for reading. Her WJ-III was pretty good. I will find it when i get back from errands. Also, the psych. did sections of other tests that showed the same kind of results. He referred to this in his write up so I will check that too.
