Jewelcrafting is one of the most profitable crafts in my opinion.

You can also probably make about 100g or so an hour by fishing. Fish feasts sell well (mats are fished up in Wintergrasp) and drag ...

Autism is related to the amygdala, which is in the lower part of your brain, mostly in the center. I doubt you'd be able to damage it directly without damaging other parts of your brain quite severel ...

Have you checked out the diagnostic criteria for autism spectrum disorders? Bad behavior isn't a diagnostic criteria. If that's the only symptom you're seeing, I wouldn't be suspecting AS at all.

Is it a tic or a fasciculations? Fasciculations are sometimes called tics, but they are different. Fasciculations are usually just one small muscle having a spasm, like an eyelid twitching, or a pul ...

Wow, it's like someone training to become a blackbelt so they can kick puppies. Way to apply that talent and skill!

I was under the impression that nearly all children born on the spectrum gradually moved up the spectrum as they got older. TEACCH has the base diagnosis of "autism" as a child is 3 years old, then l ...

The idea that autism spectrum disorders would be something you can diagnose in people you've never met, just on text description, is absurd.

Even speculating like this is what makes a lot of NTs th ...

I would be if I didn't also have to cook for a husband and son that like meat. I don't like the smell of most meats, and the texture of chicken is especially gross to me. However I'm too lazy or uni ...

Post natal abortion?

That was a joke.

No, I don't plan on getting the book. 9 times out of 10 avoidance of the meltdown trigger works for me, and that 1 time that's unavoidable will be avoided ...

You didn't hit your head recently, did you? That's sometimes a sign of concussion from a head injury.

I believe the OP only included games that start with Final Fantasy and then their number. "Spin offs" probably don't count, that's why I don't see tactics up there, or their old gameboy game (Crystal ...

MCDD and MDD aren't in the DSM IV and aren't widely recognized as being actual conditions. I would take anything you read on the internet about them with a grain of salt. Having personally known som ...

Could be schizophrenia. That has a late onset of teens and 20s.

Rather than a blood test, couldn't you just see a different psychologist?

It's obviously the SSRIs. Your doctor didn't know they cause weight gain? He's either an idiot or being paid off by the drug company. Either way, switch doctors and get your kid off the meds. They ...
