Sorry about the title. I'm just not really sure how else to put it, and in fact I'm not sure if this is exactly typical of ASD either...How many others have had difficulty in remembering where objects are, or have trouble remembering what someone else did unless actively going into the situation trying to remember *certain aspects of it*? I know that being on Ritalin as a child probably lowered my IQ in specific ways relating to describing/explaining actions of others and working memory, but a psych eval said that even though the medication may have had influence something about my memory/reasoning capacity had to be approached differentially because the Weschler wasn't able to evaluate it sufficiently. I've heard that under duress some Autistic children will be quite prone to losing items... but does anyone know what I'm talking about? People tend to get upset at me about it like I am forgetting things they did on purpose to exasperate them. It's quite painful. :/ Halp?
