Forum:Why are my skills and SPECIAL attributes going down as I play?

Basically as it says in the topic, I add more points to my skills as I level up, but in game when looking at my skills and SPECIAL attributes some have a (-) next to them and are lower than they should be. Appologies if this is something minor and I didn't know about it, I thought it could be to do with chems or alcohol but the negative signs are still there. Help please! Thanks

Could be a few things. See if any clothes or armor you're wearing have any effects. You may also have Rad poisoning. Check your status in your Pip-boy, if any of your SPECIAL attrinutes are penalized, bingo. BatHulk 21:16, July 7, 2010 (UTC) Probably Rad Poisoning or addiction.
