people who support drinking alcohol. one of my past friends thinks I have fetal alcohol syndrome. I read this in the site "FASD is known as a “hidden disability” because most individuals affected by FASD are not diagnosed until adolescence, adulthood, if at all. School-aged children with fetal alcohol-related problems are usually only identified when they are referred for a learning disability or an attention deficit disorder."

this is the site https://www.nofas.org/recognizing-fasd/
I have been doing a lot more research and I found that I have some strength of most of the symptoms.
I would just hate more people to drink or encourage drinking. it brings more kids with fetal alcohol syndrome. the site said it can happen with any amount of alcohol. many women think its fine to drink a little and its unfortunate its so common during pregnancy.

@Girlyfriendcollecting Very sorry to hear that for you and everyone who’s affected by this. Most bottles come with a warning about drinking during pregnancy but yea either people are still unaware of the affects or they don’t take them serious enough. It’s really not something that people are raising enough awareness about.
@mysixdimensiondreams yea I hope I don't have it but my mom did drink when she was pregnant. she does not talk to me about it so I dont know how much. she dose not think drinking a little during pregnancy is bad. I also have a terrible reaction to it as though im allergic, my throat closes up i start vomiting right away and everything feels like its burning after one sip.
