A ticker with autism anyone else?

Hi everyone, in times when I have been overwhemled like a ticker sound has come on for me and it will come on for me until I stop being overhwhelmed. It happened first for me in 2014 and it happened again in 2025. I want to know if that is a part of autism for any of you? I must say that I have had my autism concreasted and that is the only thing I have done by having it simply blessed at church.. That might not have anything to do with it, but I have not read of it in a single case anywhere else.

Is this common?

  • For good reasons, we’re not allowed to offer medical advice to each other here. I suggest being very careful not to jump to conclusions - that might be wrong - based on what we read about others’ experiences or opinions in online forums like this one.

    If you haven’t yet done so, I instead suggest talking to your GP about it - as I did recently in respect of my tinnitus, which sometimes becomes pulsatile.

    I’ve been referred to an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist, so will hopefully soon learn more about what’s going on in my particular case.
