Autism and PD symptoms...Related conditions?
I have been noticing a few things lately and wonder is any of you know enough about autism to answer my question? When I am very tired (like after digging a couple hours and dehydrated) that my hands start having the appearance of children I have known with autism....stretching out and twisting slightly. My friend that I help care for with PD also does this with her hands. Also, not wanting to make eye contact when her dopamine level is low > Alot of Autistic children do this, and I find myself looking away when I am talking to people and it really takes a big effort on my part not to do this. It is not a problem when I've had enough tincture, just when I'm depleated.
Do autistic children have low dopamine or is there another neurotransmitter , nerve impairment or metabolic imbalance going on that gives such striking simularities?
