| I'm curious if anyone who happens to be Aspie/ASD, Bipolar, Schizophrenic, or NT symptomatic has been genetically tested with similar results to the subject title, or have results differed from these?

Zachary Richard is good too but I prefer Michael Doucet. I grew up with all of this music and was raised with most of these characters as acquaintances and friends.
Try setting your morning alarm to some of this stuff. You may not get out of bed. Cajun heritage is just wonderful. |

| I've noticed when intervention is applied to curb the "stims" from my son that they arise is other form. The last type of "stim" went from hand signals to writing in air with an index finger. The kids really seem to love him and the teachers are now diverting his stimming to clinching his fists. Onc... |

| I've felt that way quite a bit. Sometimes to the point where nothing or no one seems familiar at that time ...it is very difficult to explain. I've heard someone refer to it as "feeling disconnected". |

| Well unless you heard it from him, I wouldn't be so sure that he even said it. Don't hold it against him just because someone else said that she said that he said what he might or might not have said. |
