dspicelady: (if you still read the forums) My jaw dropped when I read that. Given the suicidal urges in your daughter, she might have BPD. Dialectic Behavior Therapy is quite successful in treating that type (suicidal cutter) of BPD.
REPORT ABUSEI recently posted in one of the other forums about ADD + Aspergers. In my case at least there seems to be a match.

REPORT ABUSEI’ve read about ADD & trich/OCD. Here’s one page on it:

In my case the Aspie + ADD connection fits too. Fortunately none of the bad stuff for me like depression.

REPORT ABUSElook at the webinars archive; tonight’s discussion had some ideas.
REPORT ABUSEgeneric methylphenidate 10mg costs ~10c per pill
REPORT ABUSEYour family doctor should be able to give you a referal. In some cases he/she may be qualified to diagnose you themselves.
REPORT ABUSEJust tried Concerta for the first time today (starting out on 36mg). I felt mellow; when the kids were interrupting me while I worked on the computer and were talking while I was trying to watch TV I didn’t feel annoyed. Normally I’d have to take a deep breath to calm down otherwise I’d be barking at them. I don’t feel as sharp, and my visual reaction time tests were ~210ms vs. ~190ms normal.
I think I’ll probably take it when I’m around people, but when I’m working alone I’ll stay off it.
