actually it's not as far-fetched as it might seem - a whole lot of chemicals are released, so it could very well be a form of self-medication. |

| "you only call yourself that so that you can go on being obnoxious!" Naturally, but I think it might be worth a try. I sure am sick and tired of dismissed because I am 'obnoxious'. I mean people won't even read a few articles about ADHD to educate themselves. They just decide that I am 'too much' a... |

| School and the wrong family + their peers can be hell. It is no wonder so many AS want to bring about some kind of evolutionary step forward. The problem is, if we worked cooperatively there is every chance we could do that. Not entirely sure what you are saying here, but I will go with what I read... |

| Utter and complete balderdash! Off course it is, and then some! I have ADHD, and I fit the New Age description of the ' Indigo Child ' almost to a tee (well I am not telepathic and a few other bits, but hell do I know when I am being lied to or manipulated ).

| I have ADHD, and my wife, is most probably an Aspie. She's still waiting to get officially tested. But as is with most things of this kind - the more information is collected that clearer the picture gets. What made me join was that she joined after I had read the Housework/ cleanliness thread- this... |
