I have long believed, and stated to friends, that what the medical profession is misdiagnosing as “autism” is something else entirely and it is manifesting itself in very young children. Far from being an “illness,” it seems to me that it might well be that this is the new paradigm shift for the higher evolved mind.
Long ago and far away, when I was saying, thinking, and doing things I thought everyone could do, I found when I started school that I was wrong. What was very easy for me was exceedingly much harder for others. I was dyslexic, but overcame it in my earliest childhood...though it haunts me when I become very tired and sleepy. I could mirror read and draw when I was three. I can write backwards and forwards with both hands at the same time and equally as well with both hands. No one ever taught me to read, but I was reading before I was three.
I found that others regarded a genius, Einstein among them, were also diagnosed with dyslexia. So I wondered if this was a signpost that generation to generation, while the bodies had not changed significantly, the mind was evolving.
Mind you, I am sure not saying that I am a genius myslf, but others who are have these disconnects from what science considers the norm.
My mind is like a whirlwind and it’s hard to focus sometimes because it seems I think about everything all the time, even in my sleep...which can be debilitating because there is so much you want to say and do and there is never enough time because your mind keeps jumping and leaping to the next wave of seemingly random thoughts until there is an AHA! moment, (which is frequent.)
There are things you don’t say because you know it sounds crazy, but you know it’s true. But if you DO take the chance and say something, there is always someone much smarter than you who says you are crazy or that what you have said is “impossible,” until you run back into your silence. THEN, when what you said five years ago is “suddenly discovered” to be true, and science needs to “rethink,” no one ever remembers you were there.
It is a logical progression from the misdiagnosing of dyslexia to the autism being misdiagnosed today.
Remember this five years from now.
