Refined foods and excessive electronic use by themselves don’t make autism worse, but that autistic individuals are unable to cope with addiction and pleasure stimulation.

While most neurotypical people keep their addiction in control and function normally, and at the worst get fat or lazy, an autist will likely respond to wanting bread or a video game like it’s cocaine.

I know I cannot tolerate pleasure stimuli AT ALL, but this post was only an idea, and maybe it’s related to OCD or something else.
