miracle drug melts peoples brains and destroys endocrinal and electrical balance of the brain because some people just couldn't take the extra length that is proper communication with autistic people

[-] pleasemakesense@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I'm actually on this drug (not for epilepsy or autism, but for bipolar) it's called lamotrigin, and the connection for treating autism is very much very speculative at this point. I feel that it's kind of offensive claiming that it destroys aspects of the balance of the brain when people rely on it for treating their illness

I mean, for people who actually need it, it is a medicine- I take "meth" for my ADHD for example, and it just so happens to be benefitial for me and obviously not for the person with a properly developed pfc. if you were to take drugs for kidney problems when you don't need it, don't expect your kidneys to make it lol- Also, I wanted to point out "low-functioning" autistic people (I prefer the term "socially unadaptive") may make use of this. Most things related to autism treatment research goes into "sua" people, not to us, socially adaptive autistic people. I made a mistake not regarding that on my previous comment even though it is a meme :C
~btw please disregard the battlefield down there, the website kinda messed up~
