Thanks for responding i wasn’t sure if someone would. The first time I was diagnosed was sometime before the fifth grade. My Grandmother had my brother and i in counseling at the child study center Ft Worth for things that happened before i was in kindergarten nothing really bad just a long story.

As to your question about the testing they did the works we were up there about 2 times a week for 3 weeks just for testing. basically all i remember form that was them telling me i had a college level English comprehension that i remember that because i was really proud of myself and that i had a above average IQ but in all fairness i have never meet anyone who said they have an average or lower IQ. With all that testing the only thing i got was a trip to the nurses office once a day for meds and put in a classroom full of kids that couldn’t tie their own shoes for half the school day.

I don’t really remember what test they gave me the second time but i know i didn’t spend more that a few hours testing. The 3rd time was through the VA hospital and I spent about 6 hrs testing. But i will look into the psycho-educational testing. Also on the amount of time it takes me to read is factual i used to time my self i thought that i could turn it into a game and see how fast i could get through a page and remember a general idea about what it said or what happened it didn’t work.

I know the ability to read is there somewhere i have started and finished about 10 books but i only seem to be able to focus that well when really crappy stuff is happening example I read 4 books in 3 days when i was told my dad was dying of cancer and i was waiting for a ticket to travel back home.
