I have NLD, and am doing NLD as my ISU/project topic for sociology and wanted to know stats for how many people have NLD I.E. so like 2 out of 3 or 20 % of the population. (Canadian stats would be nice but I will accept international stats as well)

Also suicide, withdrawl, depression, anxiety, isolation and depression risk rates would be nice.

I decided to do NLD as my topic as a self discovery kind of thing while also getting my work done. I find out things about myself and get work done to~ :D

Thanks in advance.

Are you asking us to do your research for you?

No, I've looked for hours and days and through all the books I have at home and searched online but none of them have any stats like that. I was wondering if anyone turned up anything in their own search in understanding NLD.

I think it was mentioned on NLDline, they said Aspergers diagnostic rate was 1:100 of the population, but NVLD was about 1:1000. As far as suicide, they said it was highest among all the learning disorders.
