@ceo_of_monoeye_dating @jeffcliff I was talking brain damage because that is my understanding of PTSD. Lacking conscious memories can make it harder to sort out. Many of these "autistic" people probably don't even remember getting their shots as a child. A lifelong condition where the victim doesn't even know what is causing the problem, or that it is a form of PTSD at all, doesn't sound very memory dependent to me.

If needles are causing it there should be a strong link between autism and an extreme, irrational fear of needles.
