My experience as an adult autistic with high anxiety sensory issues burnout and OCD
My experience was wonderful from start to finish The medical professional was knowledgeable kind compassionate and thorough I received my medication in the mail from a pharmacy quickly I was able to schedule my appointments with my guide and medical professional easily online The app was easy to use and helpful When I started treatment my partner who was there to check in on me frequently as required and I was given clear instructions and guidance The medication tasted absolutely horrible but the taste went away fairly quickly I set my intentions and listened to my own music as I just liked it better than what they had on the app I definitely had mild euphoric experiences each time but that fades in less than an hour I felt a little groggy for an hour or so after the first 2 treatments but the rest I felt recovered within 30 min but still respected safety and didn t drive I personally do not like to journal or talk too much about my treatments so I didn t do that much unless something really stuck out that I wanted to write down A couple treatments I felt like maybe it didn t do anything BUT you have to remember that this medication helps with neuroplasticity and weeks after I would catch myself doing and feeling better in regards to my anxiety depression emotional regulation and sensory issues After completing my treatments I feel like a much better me My relationships are thriving and I have so many less down days My sensory issues that had been out of control from autistic burnout are so much better and I can even cuddle with my partner and kids again go to live shows and sometimes be better in crowds which had been pretty much impossible for the last 10 years I really can t say enough good about my experience I should also note that I am in therapy outside of this and we really focused on working on these issues during this time period as well and I had a supportive partner I was also very determined to be better and get out of rock bottom so I did put in work This is though the first time results feel like they are staying and hopefully are permanent and I would like to continue more treatments maybe once or twice a year as I am still continuing to work on myself My only negatives about the treatment is the cost and the taste Would recommend
