Hurrah It’s Not the Neurofeedback
Hurrah, the neurofeedback is not the problem. I went to Rikki Ambrosius and discussed my regression back into panic attacks, melt downs, headaches, sleeping etcetera ad nauseum.

I Don’t Mind Pity
This is in response to some posts I’ve read from some really lovely mothers of autistic children. I understand where they are coming from but I would like to present a friendly alternative argument.
