From the author of _Neuro Tribes, Steve Silberman, a strong endorsement of this NYT Opinion piece/Guest Essay_

My Son and Gus Walz Deserve a Champion Like Tim Walz

Incandescently brilliant piece by Tina Brown on her autistic son and Gus Walz. We must BURY Trump and Vance at the ballot box and shovel dirt down the throat of the zombie corpse of the former Republican party. Please spread this gift link.

I hadn't noticed how Fox & Fiends were apparently ridiculing a proud, exhuberant son, #TrumpVirus style - pure ignorance & disrespect. Then I saw the reports, not surprising but a reminder of the hate & #disinformation spreading #GQP #media can be.

This actually makes sense as #PTSD is about the lack of social support after a traumatic event A) someone on the #spectrum is much more likely to feel alone in general and therefore will feel like they are suffering alone and B ) the average person will not understand why something a person on spectrum found traumatic is traumatic and therefore dismiss and diminish it, often belittling them for being a wimp. I've found a few triggers here and there but never viewed myself as having PTSD, however looking back on my days prior to college I can see how many of my reactions to stress were hyperfragile. I would just cripple at stresses that were nothing to the average person.
There are serious breakthroughs in the treatment of PTSD with #MDMA , which allows the brain to feel positive emotions on the level of a normal person, #ketamine , which allows the mind to dissociate the emotions from the trauma to help them reframe it in a much less emotionally crippling way and #Psilocybin mushrooms which causes the brain to become hyper-plastic, a person with PTSD has hyper-crystalline memory at the level of an elderly person which makes it hard to change the way one thinks.
I never used MDMA or ketamine but I have used #shrooms 3-4 times in my life and look back that is around the time my life and confidence began to improve. Mind you at the time a LOT of changes were happening including my use of #self-hypnosis , so I can't say for certain if the shrooms helped or not. Luckily its impossible to become addicted to shrooms because they are so overwhelming you want quite a break between them except for maybe #microdosing .
However I would love now to try MDMA and ketamine therapy with a trained #psychologist and see if some of my other issues such as long term #depression which drives my #ADHD which I unknowingly use as a tool to distract myself from depression. Ketamine probably will not be nearly as useful for me as MDMA as I have in fact, possibly because of my #autism, been able to emotionally disconnect from bad memories and reframe them, but I'd be willing to try with qualified therapist if they believe it might help.
That said, John Oliver has recently done an episode showing that due to the severe shortage of licensed therapists, and the way drug/insurance companies fund things, only the rich or upper middle class may have access to these treatments while the poor who have some of the most trauma that often keeps them poor, will be left without this kind of treatment. This will lead many to self-medicate illegally which in the case of MDMA and ketamine can lead to addictions if not dosed properly, and without the therapist engaging in talk therapy, will only give a fraction of the possible benefits.

SHOW NOTES
#Elana #Freeland, writer, ghostwriter, lecturer, storyteller, and teacher who researches and writes on #DeepState issues, #MK-ULTRA, ritual abuse, and invasive electromagnetic weapons returns for an exclusive Alfacast interview.

Best known for her books Sub Rosa America, #Chemtrails, #HAARP, and the #Full #Spectrum #Dominance of #Planet #Earth, and Under An Ionized Sky, Elana will take us on a personal journey through her latest masterpiece, Geoengineered Transhumanism.

Elana's analysis of the #Transhumanism agenda is a remarkable analysis drawing equally from both a #scientific and #esoteric perspective. Her masterful dot-connecting will highlight major military operations of global control, and the current push to re-engineer humanity through a Neurological-Artificial Intelligence interface.

We'll go deep into current events to illustrate how this is, in fact, playing out in real time, and the unimaginable consequences we will surely face unless a mass-awakening occurs now!

Does this portend what Rudolph #Steiner referred to as the " #Eighth #Sphere" and the final attempt to capture the very #Soul of humanity? We personally feel this to be the case, and we encourage our livestream audience to have their questions in hand.
