Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Twice Exceptional When is it more than just being gifted?

I am so very out of my realm of experience, but as I read your posts my first thought was that some of her behaviors remind me of a relative who has OCD. The behavior includes being very talkative/monopolizing a conversation, as well as being very social.

I wish this was easier for you, and every parent who is trying to figure out what's going on with a child, based on their behavior. My heart goes out to you, as your situation sounds really challenging. I hope you have people nearby to lean on. And I hope you find some help here on the board, as well.
