>I meant to mention in my previous note that stimming is probably what Bill Gates does. He's noted for being somewhat anti-social and for rocking away when discussion is going on around him and for being rude... ; ), and it hasn't stopped him a bit, from making lots of money and headlines.
> No help... but mild forms are more commmon than we think - I can even see bits in me at >times!!I think we all have tendencies toward all traits and some are just more defined and predominant in some of us, and even more so when stressed...we hold all possibilities within our grasps - the good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful and so on and so forth...
