"Shall we talk" about neurodivergency and in particular Autism? Because I feel like that's the hot-topic just now, since Trump announced it was caused by Tylenol. Because I feel a little touched by the 'tism' and I just want to be clear, it's never been the Tylenol that affects my brain. In fact I've gone at length into an AI deep dive, to understand the links between Autism and other neurodivergent disorders. To say that basically Paracetamol is the cause of Autism, negates the fact that is often due to genetic factors, stemming from lapses in frontal cognitive development that happens due to a malformation of the cerebral cortex, responsible for cognition. In other words it opens up your mind to use other parts of the brain that normally aren't used, hence why some with Autism have "special abilities", that seem like "superpowers". The same parts of the brain activated by hallucinogenics are the same ones that are stimulated in neurodivergent disorders. These disorders are linked to families, that may also have cases of "Schizophrenia", as studies have shown. Originally Autism was considered a type of Schizophrenic condition.

This diagram was mocked up by AI so forgive the slight AI hallucinations. The diagram is there just to highlight the symptoms of these conditions do overlap. |
There are rare types of overlap, such as overlap with "Locked in syndrome", which causes communication difficulties, because although the brain is often highly aware the brain cannot process into speech patterns, much like when you get "Too high".
