Hi ShortE,
T said that perhaps had it been presented differently I wouldn't be so angry. She is probably right as I understand there is a world of difference between autism of any kind and excelling at certain things and more sensitive to certain sounds, smells, etc.
<< The thing about a diagnoses is that you DO take the parts that fit and DISCARD the rest. These things are not one size fits all.
You are so right. I see things as all or nothing. Like you, it's black and white. No gray areas. I am going to do more research and write down things that fit, things that don't. Bring it to my T.
<<Tai-chi is very cool. Very cool!!! In my city, in the mornings, there are Chinese people in the parks practicing. My psychiatrist uses it himself.
T said she would try to find a tape she can loan me, otherwise I am going to see if the library has any tapes or DVDs. If I am doing this it needs to be where no one can see me fall over when I lose balance. That's what I like about water aerobics- the water holds me up!
