Mom told my then-psychiatrist that when I was a baby, I could sit up in my crib after my nap, smiling and content to just sit there. I knew who my mom was, but didn't feel any desire to call for her. She said that she once tested to see how long I would go without calling her; she gave up after a half hour!
I was like that too, and stayed that way throughout childhood. My mom says that I would sit and play quietly by myself for hours, literally--she could come back an hour or so later from a different part of the house and I would be in the exact same place.
To this day, I can spend hours on the computer.
Between infanthood and pre-adolescence, I was kind of all over the place, but in a way that couldn't be easily perceived by teachers, or anyone else who wasn't paying attention to me all the time. It was hard for me to focus.
