  • I should not be entertaining bait, but here goes:

    Gut biome is important to many things with our bodies. I agree.

    But to say that a lifelong neurological affliction is caused by a “bad gut biome” is disinformation, at best.

    It’s a slippery fucking slope once someone claims “x causes y” with no absolute conclusion. Once a scientific study comes out saying that “ADHD is caused by xyz”, I’ll take that into consideration.

    Sick as fuck of people claiming that my neurological disorder can be CURED by keto or diet or some shit. We can live make healthier choices in order to make managing ADHD easier, but, no, it’s never been proven to be caused by fucking gut biome or whatever. If it’s proven otherwise in the future, I’ll accept that. Fine. Cool.

    But for now? No. Find me an actual fucking cure, and then I’ll stop being angry about shitty disinformation.











  • Tbf, there’s a lotta folks who come in here from other instances without even looking at where they are, sometimes making thoughtless comments.

    In case you were one of those, I thought it best to explain. 👍

    …I also did not realize it was a joke until you said something, so make of that what you will.

    Autism can range from non-verbal to high-functioning and everything in between. My nephew is nearly 17 and has a mind functioning on a third-grade level. I struggle heavily on a social level and often am overstimulated by lights, sounds, unfamiliar environments, etc.

    Not all autistic folk have the same “level” of autism.
