Hello. A couple weeks ago I was talking with my cognitive therapist about the link between my autism and my CP, and apparently a massive 7% of people with CP have autism, compared to just 1% of the general population. Which was a shock to me because I thought my autism was genetic and my CP was because of medical negligence when I was born. Add to this I am a psychic and I have lost of innate psychic abilities, which I have to shut down when I am around other people, as another form of masking. Then I also have ADHD which means I make a lot of faces and tap things a lot.
I just think my brain has been through a lot and its amazing my brain has survived and kept functions so I could rebuild it as a adult. Another thing is that I can feel my brain working, like the different parts functioning and I don't think most people can do that. Just wonder what other people think could be going on with the link between autism, CP and psychic abilities, which I think is down to my brain being damaged so I can't filter things out which normal peoples brain's do. So I find it really awkward socializing and making close relationships. As you can see its 4 in the morning when I am thinking about this and this is why my brain is most aware and active.
Thanks for any feed back.
