I remember several years ago when I went with my husband to have him evaluated, we spoke separately with the psychiatrist . He asked us both the same questions and then we got together to hear his evaluation. He will then decide if you need meds.

I can't remember all the different areas but it's kind if like an IQ test where you don't really know you're being tested.

Working Memory

Cognition

IQ
