Jay - you mention being diagnosed with a developmental disability? I find your posts to be extremely intelligent - I wonder if you were misdiagnosed? I'm quite interested in giftedness, IQ and all of this -

> I think one of my major issues is I came from a deeply loving and caring family, BUT I have a developmental disability (well...was labled with one in Grade One through Three..was told I'd have to go live in a 'group home'..but my parents would have none of that, and helped me majorly), but the thing is I *sometimes* can function "out there". I've gotten a couple of college degrees is one example, and I did have an amazing job helping handicapped adults and working as, believe it or not, a social worker. Like Tony (lostsailor), he is also a social worker, and we are kind of in similar shoes.
