I don't give much of any credit to reports like that. Any group or person can do research and bend the results to reflect whatever they want them to, and this could be that way, or maybe it's not... But I never panic on this stuff. Look at coffee drinking: Just about every week a new official repor... |

When I heard I should have one. Then I learned what it meant, and realized I didn't want it at all. |

So tell him that you're not comfortable with it. It's ok to change your mind. |

But yet, I'm still finding it difficult to do - I don't know what it is. Even with good intentions, I just end up giving them a cursory, quick, brush which does nothing useful at all. I never considered it to be a sensory issue, but perhaps it is. I really don't know. I just can't seem to do it. Ch... |

It's more often diagnosed in boys than girls. And yeah, that doesn't mean it's more likely for boys than girls. |

I have really bad teeth, mainly because I never understood why brushing my teeth was necessary. Because toothache can kill. And even if you go to the dentist before that, it's costly, and toothache hurts like hell. Better to never get there. If you have problems with a toothbrush, you could try a c... |

So does acupuncture. Yet, many hospitals now have acupuncture clinics on site because they find them extremely effective. The method relies on unclogging 'energy pathways' in the body. Science cannot PROVE these energy pathways exist or that chi is real yet - it works. Even on the staunchest skepti... |

I like running up & down stairs. Never had any problem with them. When I was a kid, escalators attracted me. My mom got onto me for playing on them every time we visited the mall, where there were several. I wanted to get close to the part that flattens out, the part that's most dangerous and my... |

I like it. The water here is said to be good, though. I think location matters more than the fact that it is water. |

I don't know....NTs may not go on about their obsession, but they still can let it take over their life. Take fashion for example. Many young NT girls would rather wear a fashionable jacket what isn't rain-proof or snow-proof just to look good, but then complain when they get soaking wet or freezin... |
