When I was a child, my mother told me that it was like I "wanted to be miserable."

I didn't want to be miserable - I was autistic, ADHD, and brain damaged, but undiagnosed on all counts.



Thanks to both of you -- parent and grandparent posters -- for the very honest posts. The world is complex, and I'm grateful whenever people help me to see a new edge of that.
