This is 100% my own anecdote but I believe it helps me with my autism.

And I believe that my relative who also has autism and never used cannabis in their life has been impeded by not using it. Just looking at us both now in our 40s, I have a stable career and they are a shut-in on disability.

A lot of things lead us here but at the end of the day I think cannabis gave me a release, a way to let things go, not fret too much.

I remember a meme from early 2000s where cb was represented as a pill that said "fukitol" and honestly that's how it works for me. If it wasn't for cb I would be hyperfocusing on things I can't do anything about.
