[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 539389"] My parents also made choices that destroyed some of my siblings. They took a bad situation and made it 100 times worse and destroyed some of my siblings and their family. I am very aware of the feelings you have towards your parents. I don't think this is something you can handle by yourself any more than you could NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD) by yourself. It sounds like you have severe PTSD as well as the resentment towards your parents. I hope you find a good therapist to help you with this. By the way, I think you are an amazing person to be able to get the diagnosis and work so hard to overcome it. Having worked in sp. ed. I doubt the schools would've been able to help much more than to just say 'something is wrong.' They wouldn't have know what was wrong or how to help. It probably wouldn't have changed anything. Frequently here we are faced with educating the educators. And I know my training didn't teach me anything about the diagnosis my students had. I'm sorry. And your post is a great description of what NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD) is like. Its the first I've actually been able to understand the all encompassing, long lasting impacts of this disability as well as the hope for those who get the right treatment. My son also has a 21 point difference in his testing, but its in the other direction. I wonder how that impacts him. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
