Autism and Drugs

Ok recently I watched some videos on YouTube of someone with Autism taking LSD and MDMA and both times he said he felt almost nothing. Not sure if this guy bullshitting because he took 700ug of acid and over 200mg of MDMA and he still said he couldn't feel it. Not sure if he's actually telling the truth or what but I dont know how you can say you cant feel anything on a high dose of LSD and MDMA. Does anyone have autism here or anything similar? How does it affect your trips?

They're doing studies on using MDMA to improve social skills in adults with autism. The initial study was a poll of autistic adults that had taken MDMA, to see how it affected them. The folks doing this poll had actually reached out to us, and the link was stickied for a while. The results were postive eneough that the FDA approved the next phase; actually doing MDMA sessions with autistic adults. As far as I know, this is still in the works.

I am diagnosed with a weaker form of Asperger's (and a crazy-ass strong form of ADHD) and from what I have experienced till now I feel that my visuals are slightly diminished (but I can't say that it doesn't do nothing to me) but my head and thinking is affected way more than a neurotypical head, I usually enjoy much more what happens inside my brain than my friends do.

somewhat entertaining but not very informative. I dont get the hype with psychedsubstance. he acts like hes an authority on all these drugs but hes just some random kid who wears beanies.

To me he's like the bro science of drugs. He talks about LSD like some crazy as fuck hippy and says you shouldn't take them for recreational use even though he has trip report about combining LSD with coke at raves which I dont fucking get with him

Erowid says we shouldn't do drugs as well. But does that stop us, no.

Erowid has good and factual information and doesn't present itself like it's the bro science for drugs. Can't think of a good example but I remember PsychedSubstance saying 10% of your LSD tabs will be gone in 10 minutes if you leave it out even though I took acid that I lost in my draws for months and still tripped although his vids are entertaining but for information no

If you've seen one autistic person, you have seen one autistic person, meaning they're all so different, you can't say what works for one, will work for all.
Asperger's was folded into Autism, and they now go under the term Autism Spectrum Disorder, and also why the autism awareness ribbons are the color they are, because it represents the many different ways autism appears, it's so different from person to person. So I think the proper route would be to find what works for each individual, and to listen to what that person is saying. Lots of parents try to push their own agenda on their kids, and don't listen to them, and this causes their kids to fail at life, many parents of autistic kids will "love their kids to death" meaning they stunt their growth because they try to do everything for them.
I think parents of autistic children, should be open to any type of therapy which bring relief for their kids.

I beg to differ. Everybody has their flaws don't criticize Adam (psychedsubstance real name) for being overly enthusiastic about psychedelics.
But a youtube channel with over 400,000 subscribers, that's at least increasing the awareness about drugs, is better than nothing. There's not that much youtubers who talk about psychedelics these days. Well besides Neurosoup.
But I'd rather watch Psychedsubstance than Neurosoup. Her videos are IMO your sterotypical hippie videos.

Hey you who's always been this way, how does it feel when tripping compared to a neurotypical?
How in the fuck should I know? It's asking a blind man to drink orange juice and say "how would this taste different if you could see what you were drinking?"
FWIW, I trip. It's not really that visual, even with acid, but I'm feeling stuff, believe you me. Even on 100 micrograms, which is enough for me.
