@actuallyautistic@a.gup.pe The burnout experience, before I knew I was Autistic and expected myself to be able to function like a neurotypical: Why the hell am I so tired all the time?! I get 8 solid hours of sleep! Maybe I'm eating too much sugar. Maybe I'm not eating enough. Maybe I'm eating too many processed foods. Maybe I'm not eating enough protein. Maybe I'm not drinking enough water. Maybe I'm not getting enough physical activity. Maybe I'm drinking too much caffeine. Maybe I've got mono. Maybe my body is fighting off a mild infection. Thoughts that literally never crossed my mind: Maybe I've had too many demands on my time and energy. Maybe my senses have been overloaded. Maybe I'm not giving my brain enough rest (which is different than sleep) Maybe I need to do LESS. Maybe I need a lot more alone time. It's so hard to understand why we feel a certain way when we're trying to understand ourselves as a "normal" person. #ActuallyAutistic

The estimated prevalence of autism spectrum disorder in individuals over 8 years is
currently one in 44, with applied behavioural analysis being the most commonly used
state-funded form of treatment for autism in the USA.1 Part of its widespread availability
is the policy of the American Medical Association (AMA), which supported applied behavioural
analysis as the first choice evidence-based treatment for autism.1 However, at the
AMA House of Delegates annual meeting in June, 2023, Resolution 706 entitled, “Revision
of H-185.921, removal of AMA support for applied behavior analysis”,1 put forward
two changes.

Long-Term ADHD Medications and Cardiovascular Disease Risk
When used for a prolonged time, pharmacologic treatments for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were linked with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease—specifically hypertension and arterial disease—in a case-control study.

A reverse Turing-test for predicting social deficits in people with Autism
Social symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are typically viewed as consequences of an impaired Theory of Mind, i.e. the ability to understand others’ covert mental states. Here, we test the assumption that such “mind blindness” may be due to the inability to exploit contextual knowledge about, e.g., the stakes of social interactions, to make sense of otherwise ambiguous cues (e.g., idiosyncratic responses to social competition). In this view, social cognition in ASD may simply reduce to non-social cognition, i.e. cognition that is not informed by the social context. We compared 24 adult participants with ASD to 24 neurotypic participants in a repeated dyadic competitive game against artificial agents with calibrated mentalizing sophistication. Critically, participants were framed to believe that they were competing against humans (social framing) or not (non-social framing), hence the “reverse Turing test”. In contrast to control participants, the strategy of people with ASD is insensitive to the game’s framing, i.e. they do not constrain their understanding of others’ behaviour with the contextual knowledge about the game (cf. competitive social framing). They also outperform controls when playing against simple agents, but are outperformed by them against recursive algorithms framed as human opponents. Moreover, computational analyses of trial-by-trial choice sequences in the game show that individuals with ASD rely on a distinctive cognitive strategy with subnormal flexibility and mentalizing sophistication. These computational phenotypes yield 79% diagnosis classification accuracy and explain 62% of the severity of social symptoms in people with ASD.
