So, I won't talk about the vaccine part much, just to say those people don't understand autism at all, it isn't a sickness, just a different way of seeing/reacting to the world. One that need coping strategies early on. Well. I wasn't vaccinated until 6 (after almost dying from the whooping cough. Whooping cough is also my first and only childhood memory, and at least my adelphity got vaccinated after that). I am also the only autistic person of my whole family (25+ cousins, all vaccinated, my mother is the only one who didn't follow a medical career at first), so I guess I'm really unlucky.
I wanted to talk about DMSO. Shoot.
DMSO is a great molecule, but it has side-effects. It will give you gastric reflux (to my understanding this is pretty systematic), which will trash your oesophagus if you take it long term (my mother just got operated for this reason). My mother found out she was allergic to NSAIDs (it triggers her manic bipolarity), she take DMSO since like 2012 for everything, and just stopped taking it recently. She say she didn't noticed it before, but it was a bit like being under weed, albeit less strong: small memory gaps, weird concentration pattern (plus gastric reflux).
I have no doubt DMSO is better than the opioids it seems half of USians are prescribed (it's really rare to be given something stronger than NSAIDs here, even corticoids are rare, so it really seems like an exaggeration).
Please don't use it with children, I'm not anti-weed but I think we should avoid giving drugs that affect neurons until most of the brain is formed. If they're too young to drink, they're to young for DMSO.
I'm saying that because it's one of the only effective drug from the non-mainstream pharmacy, and when compared to the usual placebo, works really well, so it has a tendency to be idolised in groups with this minority habitus. Avoid giving it to children.
- mythrwy 2y agoIsn't DMSO topically applied? I'm not understanding the connection to weed here.
- orwin 2y agoOk, this enter the 'tmi', but yes, it's mainly topical, but it can be IV, and for a particular, chronic ailment, a douche.
- meindnoch 2y agoI'm not a native English speaker, but I've noticed this writing style a few times here. Is there a name or adjective for the writing style that the parent comment is using?
- orwin 2y agoBoring? I'm not a native English speaker myself and I've truly learned English reading documentation.
- Spooky23 2y agoI read a conversational stream of consciousness that’s well thought out and moderated to be cautious/nuanced around controversial topics. Feels like a self-taught person, perhaps a non-native speaker themselves.
