About a month ago the Doctor prescribed me a Beta-Blocker (Bisoprolol) it was not Autism related it is because I have high-blood pressure. But I do have anxiety issues.
Although one thing I have noticed about since I have taken Bisoprolol my anxiety levels have dropped and I am starting to feel a bit more confident around people. It has caused other areas in my Autism to get worse. I am starting to feel more overwhelmed, it makes my head feel strange leading to sensory issues, I have started to get more urges to stim more than ever even including stims which I have not done for years, I want more downtime than before, I am becoming more and more fidgety especially with my arms and legs, I feel very hyperactive one minute but then get extremely low the next.
I am starting to think although some Beta-Blockers can reduce Autism or mask it a bit more I wonder if there are some Beta-Blockers that actually increases Autism, maybe it is something that needs to be researched.
