If using one ward calming would the best one. |

| I'm pretty sure I disagree with all the answers so far. You should have been asked if you were DD. Or, you should have at least been given one, unless... You walked in on your own, or were "tagging along" with a group that maybe didn't expect you too (?) If the bartender knew all of them he may hav... |

I'm not understanding if this is a purposeful action or not. After a minute of watching people drink I announce it's time for me to l... |

| There was one kid that was in the special Olympics and special summer camp episodes. In the camp one he was the bad kid ring leader that was out to get Jimmy. He never looks at anyone I wondered if he is on the spectrum. "Hello my name is nathan, im disabled" http://southparkstudios.mtvnimages.com/... |

I have always done rocking, head banging, and some other stims. When looking at sleep meds
agreed to try Clonidine which helps that and reduces stims along with being a med for blood
pressure. My stims were reduced quite a bit. |

| There may be little new information but I also follow the same routine each night and take Clonidine (aids sleep and reduces stims such as rocking) and Melotonin 30 minutes before sleep. I also have a fan running to help mask noise and a couple of blankets to keep out light. Comfy PJ's are a must an... |

In bed at night, my legs and/or body often move back and forth. If not that, then at least one of my legs makes an off/on twitchy movement. Sometimes my body go... |
