Thank you Jakki
Your help is always appreciated

If environmental interaction is what regulates the sense of self and being, what does it say for people with executive dysfunction? What does it say for people with mental illness and disabling trauma? What does it imply for cases that deals with double empathy?

What does it imply for people with unreliable bodies and brains?
What does this imply for anyone who has "less agency"?

Who or whatever other half or younger self residing my in right brain, probably has anxiety.

Does that make sense?

I really really wish the United States would have a better mental health system. I saw that Sweden has a great mental health system and it made me wish I lived there. At the rate things are going I fear what the US system will look like in 5 years. I know the grass is not always greener on the other side however. I just wish things could be better.

Regarding Ednas Last post ... ... yeah... think may occur in older Aspie brains possible , even younger brain possibly? .Maybe off base here .
And this only one opinion.: Like to think , that younger part of the side of the brain. Is what keeps us going .
Think it , just as it is for me, has my younger selfs anxiety . And just maybe that younger side could be sort of a preservative for the alert ND person / Aspie. Not sure that side ages well. A side that hopes alot , but at the sametime has awareness of possible pitfalls of being yourself ,?( unmasking) relaxing into just being you , and at the sametime after all the years of issues doing that, might be slightly bend towards having anxieties. if that side of yourself may have faced conditional acceptance or even no acceptance . Maybe only at alone times ? to get to be you .( only meant as a thought bubble)

Other side aspect of the younger brain with hope can come the moments of creativity, when not always contrained by anxieties ?

know what you mean Brian . My own experiences with Doctors versus all the years of research and personal experience ,I have accumulated . When I suggest some things they are not exactly good listeners . And the production line mentality ,just does not work. Especially if might be presenting with more than one symtom. Sorry to hear of your experiences too.

People saying "ADHD doesn't exist, it's just normal childhood behaviour" is the same as saying "Emetophobia doesn't exist, because nobody likes being sick".

My neighbour has that opinion and his grandson was even diagnosed with it

Mind you my neighbour doesn't believe in anything so I take him with a pinch of salt

He reckons he cured his own cancer with cat powders or something

I think my depravity level went down during my brush with "the black dog"

It's on its way back up again

Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!

Halle-lu-jah!

It's nuts innit that during my darkest hour, I would have poured my heart out to the likes of Jimmy Saville if I thought it would have saved my life. It means nothing

I suppose it's a bit like when a person is dying of starvation and they wouldn't turn their nose up at a dead rat if they thought it would save their life

But I know who my friends are

Yeah, have met some serious cases of peeps with. ADHD . both people very close to me. maybe a third but she was generally pretty private about it . Let it slip only once , but her actions around certain holidays , amazed me ,I that had not spotted it earlier . 2 out of the three both seemed to like night shift work. Unknown why? bigger pay or suited their personalities .? All three were some of the best people , I had ever met. And each one was very good at almost whatever they put their mind to . And honestly , Am really not very sure these were representative of all of them ?
or just never got to really know any bad ones .
