Sensitivity to Medication

Seanado
over 3 years ago

I have found that I have always had hypersensitivity to any medication that I have been given through my life.

I need far less of a medication for it to work. Often I have to halve a dosage of anything that a doctor prescribes.

Taking the 'normal' dosage causes side effects. Having observed this and explored it further over the years, I find it to hold true for any medication.

I wanted to ask if anyone else has found this?

If this is one of the hypersensitivities of autistic people or if it's just me?

    Yep, I have that too. I read in Rudy Simone's 'Aspergirls' that this is common with autistic people. That's why I've been experimenting with natural/herbal alternatives (eg nootropics for ADHD, St John's Wort for depression, peppermint capsules for IBS etc)
