Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion obsessive academic accumulation disorder (OAAD)

My son just suggested "Novel Experience Retention Disorder" (N.E.R.D.) and "Generally Excessive Educational Knowledge Syndrome" or "Generally Excitable Excessive Knowledge Syndrome" (G.E.E.K.S.)

So far we've also got:
"Multi-Dimensional Obsessive Learning Disorder" (M.O.L.D),

"Focused Obsessive Learning Disorder" (F.O.L.D),

"Hyper Organized Logical Yearning for Cognitively Ordered World-view" (H.O.L.Y. C.O.W),

and "Overactive Highly Generalized Obsessive Logical Labeling Yearning Generating Excessive Excitability" (O.H. G.O.L.L.Y. G.E.E.)


I'm sure more will be forthcoming...
