Thanks emomom - I view all three (sexuality, intellectual capacity, and other mental health disorders) as being the same in the regards that they are all things which will effect you life-long. They'll affect you in different ways, and some MAY be more easy to live with - but those cases are deteremined on an individual basis. Like.. I'm extremely high-functioning and I can manage my life a-ok (fingers crossed it doesn't kick my arse later in life!) but that I know there are others on the board who are in need of a lot of assistance - so I've been lucky.

The issues are just different depending on what the issue is. (redundant sentence I know, but I just don't know how to say it!)
