• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

His name is Kim Peek......I saw him speak today at the state autism conference....it was very interesting.....actually, I saw him in the hotel lobby prior to the speech and he couldn't go down the escalator and had to take the stairs....his father does much of the presentation and Kim (Rain Man) answers audience questions......he doesn't do the math like in the movie...that was another savant that Dustin Hoffman studied and combined for the movie......but Kim reads and memorizes all kinds of stuff....he can tell you what day you were born on if you give him the date and year.....he can tell you your zip code and area code and the highways that go through your town......quote the bible, NASA facts, classical music, etc......
