Autism & Schizophrenia Linked

It would be great if the Drs. who are handing out these diagnoses knew this. The mindset out there is that Schizophrenia is a mental disease and Autism is a neuropsychiatric condition, when they are more similar than different. To help someone with either title, social skills are needed to be learned. They may be one in the same for all we know now. Obviously mind altering medicines have their effect & a delusion can be a twist on a truism. So the diagnosis is up to the Dr. with the title who may just be feeding the drug companies. Who's to say? Much too much subjectivity out there!

Please read these articles;

It states that mental illness is connected to a bacterial connection,and therefore passed through generations.

There is a new treatment called the Marshall treatment that aims to eradicate these bacteria via very low doses of specific antibiotics.

I would also do a complete cleanse and start a specific carbohydrate diet.

schizophrenia

I absolutely believe after researching schizophrenia for 2 years that autism and schizophrenia are 2 sides of the same coin.

My sister was diagnosed with schizophrenia but as a child was borderline autistic although she was never taken to be diagnosed.She however lagged a bit developmentally,played by herself and got upset easily.

Please all read the book; "Gut and psychology syndrome" book.

My sister has been off ALL grains,sugar and dairy and on high doses of probiotics and she is doing much better.

I do believe vaccines and environmental factors influence genes,BUT ALSO:

They did autopsies on schizophrenics and they found that their intestines were severely damaged all the way through-something autistic children have problems with.

I feel these children/people are SICK as in bacterial infection sick.

These bacteria create neurotoxins that are poisoning your child's brain.90% of neurotransmitters that are needed for a healthy brain are produced in the gut.

If the gut is sick,the brain is sick.

This is not fodder it is science.

Please look into it.

It has helped my sister so much in a space of a few months,she is back from the brink of complete paranoid,hallucinating mess.

God bless you all and may it bring healing to your families

NOVEL IDEAS

BRAIN STORM Is depression better understood a deliberate counter to anxieties imminent injury potential? Anxiety Depression and Anxious Depression, “the latter underpins mood swing?” diminish immune vigour and permits inflammatory infections. I.e. Flawed Dental Ear Nose Throat And Locals. Stress tension inhibits peripheral circulation to the brain adding to a scenario made worse where those with congenital disadvantage enhance relevant fungal septic or allergic infection. I.e. soft palette deformity could impact sinusitis via Apnoea that brings cross infection to frontal or lateral or meninges via a noses mucus in a “bitter blow“ Latent VD, infantile disease e.g. measles etc may, Herpes simplex if assert themselves during periods of depleted immunity might injure via cerebral spinal fluids. Inflammatory infections we might see as subtle meningitis. Environment might trigger a disease and genetic flaw it is nature i.e. M.N.D- M.S- Parkinson’s- Anxiety disorder and *Alzheimer. The ensuing *extended immune defence itself dangerous to neurological function.

Belief elevated Bi Polar mood demonstrate creative insights beside irrationality is legend. Authenticated it may infer some relevant brain regions are higher performing to the debit of others. Obstructive inflammation plaques and cerebral vascular failure may exaggerate supply of necessities to one region over another is it feasible to scan brain regions during a crisis for temperature anomalies and active and reactive phases?

Immune stress may also instigate the brain disintegration so typical of Alzheimer’s. pH imbalance possibly affects electro-activity liquefied oxygen has magnetic and sulphuric and impedes neuro transmitter function. If pH has a role in immune response and in formation of or removal of plaque etc. Hypertension may infer Nitric oxides, as might foul breath sulphur dioxide. Carbon Dioxide and Hydrogen Sulphide are all-common to emotionality and perhaps clues to bio chemical anomalies. ECT, Alcohol Nicotine Aspirin pH Carbon even anger may be anti plaque - inflammatory mechanisms to address cholesterol by products.

Alkali tolerates and acid oxidise and word association has excitement positive acid + depression negative alkali +. pH, may be vital to well-being particularly in brain and nerve function. An outrageous hypothesise suggests interactive pH differential separates conscious from sub conscious. Corrupt pH integrity would invite psychosis; interestingly chemically saturated water produces pH swing!

Does pH have a bigger role in well-being of brain and nervous system, i.e. alkali = depress, acid = excite? In addition, might stress discounted immunity predispose infection atop relevant congenital disadvantage. Potential injury compounded by stress depleted immunity = Cyclical > Psycho > Physical > Psycho > O Syndrome!

SERENDIPITY?

Autism

God blees your heart Mackenzie, you shall see favor in God's eyes.

GLUTEN AND VITAMINS not the answer

YOU CAN NOT TREAT SCHIZOFRENIA RELATED PSYCHOSIS WITH VITAMINS!

YOU CAN RELIEVE DEPRESSION OF SOME SORT WITH VITAMINS AND A BETTER DIET AND THE PSYCHOSIS RELATED TO YOUR DEPRESSION WILL DIMINISH

GLUTEN HAS ONLY BEEN SHOWN TO CAUSE PSYCHOSIS IN VERY FEW INDIVIDUALS/VERY RARE I would not count on either of these methods

go to a doctor get some psychotherapy , the help of your family and best of all medicine

Autism:Asperger Syndrome and Schizophrenia

Can a teen diagnozed w/ autism /Asperger Syndrome have schizophrenia? Schozophrenia does run in our family.

Please answer.

Thank you.
