Autistic people report experiencing intense joy in ways connected to autistic traits. Passionate interests, deep focus and learning, and sensory experiences can bring profound joy. The biggest barriers to autistic joy are mistreatment by other people and societal biases, not autism itself

Why is the anxiety from methylphenidate so much worse than the one from amphetamines?

Adderall and Vyvanse are much more powerful stimulants than methylphenidate then why i do i feel so terrible on methylphenidate while with Vyvanse i don't feel as bad? (i see that's the case for a lot of people too)

Last time i tried taking ritalin i was having severe anxiety attacks

The Intense World Theory of autism suggests autistic people feel too much rather than too little, and that social withdrawal may be protective response to overload rather than a lack of empathy.

Psilocybin and Endometriosis

Hi there! I am looking for menstruators who have endometriosis and have tried psilocybin as a way to eleveate symptoms. Did you have any lasting relief? I am working with a Director of Psilocybin Research and Education at at university in the US, and would love to hear if anyone has first hand experience. Since psilocybin is showing promise in easing conditions that a lot of people with endo already experience (PTSD, gut issues, chronic inflammation, treatment resistant depression etc.) I am trying to make a case that we would be a good cohort for a clinical trial. I really appreciate any feedback!
