Has anyone heard of this? Does anyone know anybody who has it? I just got curious about it, and I found a link about it. It seems some of the symptoms are similar to Autism, like the obsessions part.

The behaviours seem like they might be quite similar to Aspergers, but apart from that, it doesn't really strike me as similar, or at least only as much as ADHD does.

I don't know anymore about it though. Sorry.

I hadn't heard of Sotos Syndrome before, but reading that made me think of a couple of people in my childhood that it could perhaps have been attributed to.

Interesting.
