getting diagnosed with autism at 23 was the best thing that had happened to me in many many years and sure would have been nice if it was something I could have considered on my own

Also damn I wonder if there are race or gender disparities in autism diagnosis. Probably Not Fortunately

    “just try weed bro”, etc. (More common in physical chronic illness communities)

    This is the truth. Once I saw a post on /r/migraine that said something like "I've tried everything, including cannabis, and nothing helps" and half the replies were just "have you tried cannabis tho?"

      Weed is the new magic treatment for zoomers and millenials. Even though smoking it is unhealthy (because smoking anything is unhealthy, do edibles if you can, vapourise for harm reduction if edibles don't work) and in terms of neuropathic pain, it can only help for central neuropathic pain, it cannot help for peripheral neuropathy. At least from what we know as of now.
