Neurological function severely affected

The peripheral nervous system is often affected by this disease, but

the most significant element of the infection, appears to be the effect

on the central nervous sytem. Nearly all people with this illness

report extreme difficulty with mental concentration and short term

memory. Mood disorders, such as depression and Bipolar Disorder, are

extremely common in this group of patients, affecting well over half of

all individuals reporting symptoms of Morgellons Disease. Parents of

children with Morgellons disease report that the majority of these

children have ADHD, ODD, mood disorders, or autism. It is estimated

that 65% of these children have some form of psychiatric illness, and

10% have an autism spectrum disorder.
