I'm linking to a video of a lecture Dr James Webb gave at the University of Wisconsin. It's about the characteristics of gifties and common problems/misdiagnoses they face. It's approximately 55 minutes, but well worth the time.

The reactive hypoglycemia info. was very interesting- it's something I'm going to look into as our DS7 in very slender, has food and seasonal allergies (lactose intollerance) and we've been taking him to a psycologist to help with his intensity. Our DS9 is going to be tested with WISC-IV in a few weeks to help determine if his ADHD-like issues need further investigation, or if other accomodations might help.
