Wow, this explains a LOT.

huh. That does track for me, not a total Aussie but def on the spectrum.

>>15416818 (OP)

If you're on the ASD spectrum look into IGF-1, oxytocin and thyroid hormones play in your brain.

The thing with autism is basically everything that influences neurology might have a positive effect. Cannabis, NAC, testosterone, L-carnintine, ketogenic diets, etc. It's probably not any one specific issue, but rather that it's so easy to get 'stuck' and chemical changes can help in getting 'unstuck'

nah

What the fuck is this garbage?



Google "husserlian phenomenology"



Click Wikipedia article



1. Phenomenologists reject the concept of objective research



Even Wikipedia knows why you just looked that word up and wants you to know asap when you can stop reading.

>1. Phenomenologists reject the concept of objective research

Sounds like regular psychology to me?

Literally what is the difference?

Am I retarded or is that a word salad with no tangible meaning?

>autists get overwhelmed by sheer volume of sensory data

>normies pre-process and filter their perceptions more than autists do

>therefore autists are more likely than normies to live in the present moment

The meek shall inherit the Earth

No it's not word salad, but could just as well be made by an AI because it's only loosely referring to something.

It's basically just saying that autists experience the world differently because they don't easily develop the cognitive structures to bracket familiar phenomena. So when they re-encounter something salient it takes on a higher significance, perhaps comparable to that of a religious experience.

Hence they can just play the same video games 12 hours a day and be enthralled, or be highly bothered by predictable interruptions, and so on.

So in other words they made up some bullshit to explain why certain types of people behave the way they do. Wow, I heckin love psychology!

>So when they re-encounter something salient it takes on a higher significance, perhaps comparable to that of a religious experience

That isn't what spiritual means in this context. It's more like interpreting your experience as the transition between various states, rather than as a sequence of discrete states.

It isn't that they don't develop these structures, they are just less relevant to them due to hypersensitivity gripping their brain's decision making harder.

Imagine a continuum between making a decision or having a thought in a chair in a dentists office bored, vs having a wild animal running at you.

Autists are just further toward the right than normal on average, by how much, who could say.

That’s literally just an opinion and there is no experiment you could possibly do to prove that’s true.

Are emotions not real either?

Yes

sasuga, GPT-chan

Can't it be both?
