When I was a little kid, I was dxed with ADHD. I had severe impulse control problems, interrupted the teacher, severe tantrums everyday in the classroom until I was 16!!! My grandma refused meds though, so I went untreated, maybe best because it could have been childhood bipolar.

Anyway, despite all my problems, I had no learning difficulties! In fact, I learned faster than the other kids! I heard something once and remembered it, I didn't used to study, even in college I didn't study much (annoyed my roommates, lol). They told me if I wasn't Severely Emotionally Disturbed, I could have skipped grades.

In High School, I was in honors courses part of the day, and Special Ed the rest of the day to try to manage my behavior. I would have been straight A's, if only I wasn't such a bad speller and didn't understand the concepts very well in English class, I don't know why I had problems with that.

I can learn, but my over emotionality and bipolar keeps me from succeeding in life (seriously, I don't have problems with OCD! I'm getting that overturned, being eccentric is not OCD, I've been reading about that.)

Anyone else like this? Or am I truly alone....
