[QUOTE="Malika, post: 592043, member: 11227"] Actually, I am now really confused. A little internet research (how reliable?) tells me that ADHD [I]always[/I] involves impaired working memory. Now, a score of 131 is classed as "very superior" in the WISC grading scale and is the highest available category. It simply does not add up. A very quick reading up on dyspraxia seems to list many of the symptoms of ADHD and also lots of the sensory stuff J has. Is there any possibility the ADHD thing was a red herring and he is "just" dsypraxic? I feel like I'm swimming in soup, a little. Alphabet soup... or are all these things just overlaps of each other anyway, just labels we have given to identify a part of the brain that doesn't work as well as it could?? [/QUOTE]
