I've read that night terrors like these can be caused by a sensitivity to salicylate acids. It could be caused by the foods you eat.
I counter SA's by using an epsom salt lotion on my skin to absorb the salts that allow the body to detox the acids out through urine. |

| Occasionally. I used to feel a lot more envious of romantic couples when didn't feel like I'd ever feel up to having a relationship myself. While I'm still single, I feel like I could handle a relationship now and no longer have the same frequency or intensity of jealousy of others' relationships. N... |

| There's no way that diet can cure Autism. It can only help as it does with anyone to feel better and to be more healthy overall. Why not? Diet is about the only thing that ever cures anything.. it's all about what we ingest. When you eat/drink medicine, does it not cure you of whatever ails you? Ho... |

| While I've cheated a bit on my diet over the holidays & I haven't been as intense about it w/ as many soups/teas over the last handful of months, I've been following a very similar diet for about 2 years now. I've not only survived on it.. but I've thrived. Seriously. I'm way healthier and stron... |

I shared my story here on the forums last January and the general response was that people don't believe me. It doesn't change the fact that my symptoms are minimize... |

| Wearing a "mask" and acting one's way through social situations is an AS trait, so of course it makes sense that you've been able to utilize that trait to fake it through life so far. |

Go visit my youngest God daughter & her little brother. Workout. Meditation. Reading. Watch a movie. Go for a bike ride. Go kiteboarding. Go... |

| I don't get how antibiotics can affect your mental status. I have not read any medical claims that they do that. They are designed to fight an infection, which clearly wouldn't affect your mood. The only side-effect to antibiotics I've had is having more bowel movements during a day, which is commo... |
