I always new something was wrong with me as a child. I was not like the other kids it was just that simple. I was always acting out in strange ways like I use to scratch my face to leave red marks so that someone could tell there was something wrong and help me. Also I would lie on hearing test etc. so that someone would "help me." It only got me in trouble and the principle in my private school hated me because of it all. I would always get lost because I would daydream wile I was walking, maybe micro sleep? Anyway I would come out of it and not know where I was or how I got there. At maybe 4 to 6 yrs old this was pretty darn scarry. I also often got lost in stores the same way. Once when I was a todler I got lost in the woods and my parents sent the family dog to find me and he did. Cool dog!!! Some how no one ever thought that there might have been a problem. But I knew, I always new I needed help. After a wile you just sort of disapear in sort of a fog. And clumsy! I would often fall because my knees would buckle. I am just starting to be able to think about my childhood with out going out of it or becoming sort of paralyzed. Also talking about learning while asleep, does anyone have trouble with spelling. I always have a difficult time with letters jumping in where they do not belong? I have an above average IQ and a decent job, just can't spell. Any connection? - D
