...Basically it should patch me right up; I'm only really acquainted with it because of friends gobbling a bunch of supplements after raves, now I'll try some! I'm frightfully lazy about these things considering how much I've been taught about receptor systems.

The origin and the cause of autism are unknown so there is no known substance that can remedy autism in it's essence. But some symptoms of autism are also symptoms of ADHD, Depression (autes have the tendency to become depressed), anger which can be remedied by medication.

Not really, they're clearly a real person. Being Chinese does not a spammer make.

I've considered trying 5-HTP, though with the high dose (150mg) of Zoloft I take, I worry that mixing the two may lead to serotonin syndrome. 8O If you've ever read up on it, it's a pretty scary condition. It can even be life-threatening! http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-cond ... n-20028946 http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-cond ... n-20028946
