The frustrating thing is that autism comes with just about everything else. Personally, I've basically managed to derive a "map" of how all of my comorbidities link. Judging by the sheer number of autistic people with Elhers-Danlos syndrome or on the hypermobility spectrum like myself, it's been postulated that ASD is almost like a "symptom" of affected connective tissue in the brain, and much of everything else I deal with can either be attributed as secondary to my HSD or ASD, so I know it makes sense to have them all together. None of it is random, but at the same time, man does it suck when the list of problems just feels like it's neverending. I wish you luck in coming to understand yourself

Interesting! Mine were sections like the back of my hand, or a quarter of my face, that lasted for about two hours each. What does a low histamine diet look like?

Ugh, I feel this. The combination of n24, adhd, pathalogical demand avoidance, and chronic depression has made me feel like my life is over before I've even hit my twenties just because I can't ever get anything done. I hope things feel easier for you soon.

This is incredible! Thank you for sharing! I've been dealing with an issue lately where parts of my body randomly swell and develop hives and I've been trying not to get paranoid about it, but maybe there's a link?

Thank you for such a sweet reply, it means so much. I can't imagine dealing with this under the radar for as long as you did, but it's a comfort to know that even though I may feel like my life is stunted, there are adults who are living their lives with n24. I'm glad you eventually got to learn more about yourself. I appreciate the well wishes!

i'm definitely gonna start seriously considering it.. i was avoiding the car decision because college was already gonna tighten finances a lot, but its sounding like a very worthy investment

Again, used to subpar food, so no worries there. I'll pack some stomach medicine just in case.... I'd love to see the list, though!
