Overexcitability and the gifted, link found on [livejournal.com profile] tafkar's journal.

I especially like the last sentence:

"REMEMBER THE JOY
Often when overexcitability is discussed examples and concerns are mostly negative. Remember that being overexcitable also brings with it great joy, astonishment, beauty, compassion, and creativity. Perhaps the most important thing is to acknowledge and relish the uniqueness of an overexcitable child or adult."
