Description They say I might have Downs syndrome, or maybe it's Autism.
They take my blood, and my stepmom said "it's hypertyroidism!"

I'm tired of being called retarded! Being avoided like a disease.
just leave my alone and stop your tests, I'mm begging you. Stop it, please!

I don't want to be tested, no more docs or shrinks!
I'm sick of all the secrecy, the special nods and winks.

No, where are you taking me? what is that horrid place?
Mommy, daddy, where are you? why won't you show your face?

I'm living my worst nightmare, I'm living my worst fear.
I always feared asylums, and now I'm living here.

(note: I'm not really in an asylum.)

You know, I was misdiagnosed with ADHD. I acually have OCD, and it took them 16 years to figure that out. Sometimes I felt like they just told me I had that because it was easier. I'm lucky my mother didn't want to put me on medicine.

Well... Since it's obsessive compulsive, I obsess over my compulsive behaviour... Resulting in ticks. So it's a lot of things. Just the way I do things is a little weird because of that. People usually think of it as washing your hands a lot or cleaning obsessively, but the reality of it is more in the way you do things. Like I create 'systems' for everything I do-I can't just do it normally^.^;. Right now, I'm typing, and if one of my fingers touches either the f or the j key... because they have bumps on them, I have to touch one with the other finger to make it equal. Results in quite a bit of backspacing^.^;.

Cleaning can be very comforting! But yes... I have ticks for pretty much everything... It gets annoying, and people look at me funny, but... yes, you know.

I Understand How You Feel About Your Loved Ones Sending You Away To People Who Are 'Hired' To Make Problems Worse (Excluding Your Step Mother). However I'm Different From A PSYCHOlogist, I'm Your Typical Friend, One Who Believes and Trust's In What You Say.

Agreed. Once My Parents Sent Me To A Phsychologist To Discover My Mental IQ. Genius Right? I Refused To Find Out So I Ruined My Concentration By Staying Up All Night. Its Not Much Of A Horror Story, But There Are Alot More Embarassing Stories Hidden Away. You Already Know This One, But You Want To Split Stories?

I wish people didn't try to diagnose crystal children with autism and ADD.It just goes to show how afraid of differences humans are eh?

SinisterGothic In reply to Redhotgal [2006-11-06 03:45:46 +0000 UTC]

it's true. The fear of difference in human beings is what the government uses to keep in power. they use everything humans believe and are against, at least the majority to stay on top and keep murdering people for money...
