Comment on Emotional Abuse is a Risk Factor for Chronic Headaches. by Me

Me — Sat, 12 Jan 2013 23:53:28 +0000

My “mother” was horribly neglectful and made it quite clear through words and actions that she wasn’t interested in taking care of me. She’d tell me I didn’t matter, she’d disappear for weeks at a time, she’d beat me if she had a bad day, she refused to buy groceries or pay the house payment at times, (leaving me in fear for a place to sleep at night!) and she had a prescription drug addiction. When she was addicted to Valium, she once told me she had to take it to stay calm or else she would kill me. Nice thing for an eight year old to hear from the person who is supposed to take care of her! I started having daily, unexplained headaches as a young child and the migraines came soon after. I had severe headaches into my 30′s. They finally calmed down as I began to learn and understand and fight back about what I’d endured, (and still endure since my mom has semi-regular violent episodes and harasses me until I cut off communication.) I still get painful headaches sometimes, but they are much less common.

Comment on Mental Exercise Through Videogames Offers Brain Limited Benefits. by Barbara Moore

I don’t know if you would call it a video game but I have been using Posit Science activities for over a year. I have found myself to be more alert, and more active when I practice them every day. My skills carried over for each game when I missed doing these for a month. I can’t prove I have better skills otherwise but I do know I felt more energized when I was doing these regularly. Zay

This is the only doctor that I know that has suggested phone consults rather than face to face meetings. We met once to get to know each other but then follow up on medication management and other things over the phone. This is necessary since I cannot climb stairs and he is on the second floor. He also tolerates my frequent e mails to him when things are rough for he is my only way of venting. He is absolutely the best psychiatrist I have ever been to and I have seen several. The former responders are correct. He does have compassion and patience, listening to all you want to say or write to him. I thank the day I located him via the computer.

This is disastrous! I deeply identify myself as Asperger. They must not rob my identity.

Reblogged this on defying ptsd and commented: I've suffered from migraines since I was 5-6 years old at least. I remember coming home from elementary school and having to go straight to bed with and icepack on my head to try to ease the pain. I couldn't do anything else, I barely got through the school day. I've wondered a lot about the link between my migraines and the emotional abuse, then I stumble across this post about this study. I'm not surprised to find that there IS a link.

Comment on Researchers identify possible mechanism for how lithium stabilizes the mood of people with bipolar disorder. by strugglingwithbipolar

I’m researching my medication options as my psychiatrist allows me to insert my experience into my treatment. I now have an idea as to WHY lithium worked for me in the past. Awesome post!

Comment on Asperger’s Syndrome May be Eliminated from DSM-V. by Lee

I believe that Asperger’s and autism are two completely different conditions. There is no specific provision for people like myself who have Asperger’s and so we are lumped in with the autistic community and therefore I have been able to observe the differences.

Whereas I want to participate in mainstream society, people who are autistic wish to remain in their own closed communities. Additionally, I’m academically very bright and if I’d been diagnosed much earlier, with appropriate support I would have been a fully contributing member of society for many years now…that will never be the case with people with classical autism.

If Asperger’s is re-classified there are also likely to be negative funding and advocacy issues.

Comment on Expert panel says Agent Orange exposure may be linked to Parkinson’s, ischemic heart disease. by Anon

Anon — Mon, 17 Jan 2011 20:45:24 +0000

Or, perhaps teratogenic exposure to Agent Orange “causes” ADHD, and the lifelong pharmacological effects of the drugs used to treat ADHD result in a higher incidence of Parkinson’s and coronary ischemias within affected populations…
