Interesting, Kiya. I'm kind of doing the reverse to you. I have attributed all of my school difficulties to the trauma, but I am now starting to see that the ADHD had a major effect on all of that. (I am not yet diagnosed, but I am 99.9% sure that I do have it, as is the dr who I saw last week). Whichever way you look at it, ongoing childhood abuse, DID and ADHD are a pretty devastating combination.
In response to the crawling question, I know five children with ADHD and they all crawled as infants. I also crawled.
