[QUOTE="tammyjh, post: 113554, member: 3072"] Peaceful, I'm not sure on the Risperdal M-tab. Is there a difference between that and just plain Risperdal? Is it a timed release? I haven't really spent much time learning about Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) because we've mainly researched NLD, Asperger's, and brain injury. I'll have to go do some looking now. She is very lucky in that she does recognize differences in tone of voice and is able to use some inflections of her own. She's actually been working quite some time on trying to use sarcasm. She hasn't gotten the tone of voice down yet, nor does she truly understand it but the fact that she's trying and that she does know my tone when I'm mad, sad, or happy shows that she has had and has some rewiring going on [img]:bravo:[/img] Its a limited area for her but its broadening....gives us hope that it will help the mood if she can keep progressing in that area. Yes, she's a very verbal learner and extremely articulate...a lover of words. It works against her in some ways though...gives people the false impression that she is much more functional than she really is and they assume she can do more than she is capable of. I think husband and I even expect more of her than she is able to give at times because of her verbal output. If her verbal skills were not so strong, she would have an MR diagnosis. As it is, she has fallen from a low average to a low borderline on her neuropsychologist exams. [/QUOTE]
