Just curious I got some questions. Did you have any of the following as an adult or kid? Sinus allergies, Chronic Ear Infections, Feverol Seizures, or an adult Inner Ear infection?
No,
I was raised by a pack of rabid wolves (in human form). :)
My first 'suicide' attempt was when I was 8, I took a half bottle of aspirin. I remember being on a crying jag for hours prior. It wasn't until this year that I managed to back track and remember what caused the crying jag.... :(
I missed most of first grade (6-7 years old) for chronic ear infections and tonsillitis. In fact, I still have predictable difficulty with my left ear (drain tube installed at same time as T&A)and I'll be 41 in a couple months. No vertigo though, not anything remarkable anyway. Tube was removed about 8 weeks post-op, so that's not there anymore either.
If there's a cause/effect with this, the impact could be staggering. Think of all those day-care kids that suffered ear infections, ultimately leading to tubes. It's almost a rite of passage (my own daughter included).
And finally for the record....slight GAD and OCD here!!!
