PDDNOS, technically.
i was told to research this for my eldest daughter.  and it led straight to aspergers.  it was the closest fit.


did you have language delays when you were a little girl?

Not really, but both of my brothers did.
Thank you for answering the questions. I thought I was the only one who didn't know.

Did you think Callaway was an NT?


Just asking because you said you had not known after you asked if she was on the spectrum.

I never thought Callaway was NT. She does her share of AS things. :laugh:

You are right, I didn't know. But I didn't think Callaway was NT. I didn't think anything. I just wanted to know because I was/am curious.

Callaway, did you go and see the new Harry Potter movie? If you did, what did you think of it?

We saw it on Saturday.  We went to a big theater in Denver which had an IMAX theater, but the IMAX was sold out, so we went to a regular showing there.  It was probably for the best because it was much less crowded.  I really liked the Order of the Phoenix.  I know they had to leave out a lot of stuff to make it fit in the allotted time for a movie, though.

Yes, it was like the summary of the book.
It would have been cool in an IMAX. I once saw something called "Speed" in an IMAX and almost got motion sickness.

Have you ever had motion sickness?

that movie was Speed, the movie everyone knows and you talk about it like some obscure little tiddy from the past? ::) :P

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

Why were you diagnosed with PDDNOS? Did you not meet the AS criteria?

:laugh: It was something about various machines and motion. It wasn't the movie Speed that you have mentioned.
The parts that made me feel awful were the rollercoaster bit and this car speeding down a tiny country lane. Blech.

Callaway were you diagnosed after your daughter? Were you encouraged to go for diagnosis?

It didn't require a rocket scientist to see that we had similar issues,
