I couldn’t even read all the way through this. Racing thoughts, inability to concentrate, inability to retain info. Nothing wrong with me, huh? Can a psychiatrist do these assessments?

Hi @baa
As I know these assessments are usually performed by a neuropsychologist. I do not know if a psychiatrist can perform them and which is best. I am sorry!
My opinion: Psychologists are usually more sensible people, having learned to listen to their patients. I did not have good experiences with Psychiatrists who in 2018 said that first it was necessary to treat my depression and then they would look at those absence episodes I had which today I know were seizures from my epilepsy.
