Psychedelics can affect seizure threshold. For harm reduction information, see my follow-up video:\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oa_3xZ5vTDY\n\n\nIn this episode, I examine all the ways that autism disabled my life - ways that I was never aware of until they were gone.\nTexture issues from autism restricted my deep breathing and impacted my sleep as well because I was unable to filter out noises.\nNow - I'm breathing deeply, I can sleep at night because my brain can filter out noises finally.\n\nMy entire life has changed from this experience and I have hope for hundreds of thousands of other suffering autistic people.\nAnd above all - a new level of emotional human connection is available to me and I can feel the emotions from other people.\n\nMushrooms - Psilocybin - is truly the medicine to cure the disabling aspects of autism without changing the underlying personality or the autistic strengths.\n\nI hope to create a new world from the inside out where both autism and Psilocybin are actively studied, legalized, analyzed, and fairly understood.\n"}
