I hope you had luck with medication, disorders can mess your life quite badly, my diagnosis was/is Asperger syndrome with nearly all of the problems associated with it and due to the pervasive nature of Asperger drugs are too of very limited use to me. (My writing style alone is likely to be one symptom of my condition)

The meds do help!

Ok, now that was unkindly said, Sandusky's sister seems to have quite practical, if cold, approach to his fate. Of course she is a wild cougar so she probably doesn't have the same moral values as humans.

That's good, you can regulate the unwanted parts of your kraziness.

it also helps control my cravings for sweats which I crave when I forget to take my med.

Many people belive that ADD and ADHD is caused by too much sugar, and makes the symptoms worse, but that is untrue.  ADD and ADHD is caused when a certain portion of the brain (dont recall which) is not stimulated enough, to produce enough of a certain chemical.  Retilian (sp) and Concerta, and any other ADD/ADHD medication is basicly a stimulant to stimulate that portion of the brain to produce the correct amount of that chemical.  Sugar, is a stimulant, it does help to stimulant that portion of the brain, but very crudly.

There are several theories trying to explain Asperger, but fact is that it's an 'abnormality' that affects my whole brain and thus my way of thinking and acting is permanently and uncurably shifted away from the norm.

Good thing is that it's not usually too visible through the 'net.

ya, I guess the same with ADD/ADHD

One sign of ADD/ADHD that is hard to hide is that they tend to have sloppy handwriting (mine is the pits)  I now type as much as could, even my alagbra math!

Sandusky, Dusker, dont take an ofince to this, but as my family teases my sister, Small things amuse small minds, or in this case, simple things amuse simple minds

Scott is certainly better in choosing presents than me, I gave my cats some meat and (high-grade) wet food instead of dry food, only to give them dry food after they ranked all of it unedible. Oh well, at least the catnip toy has been a partial success.
