Fair enough, and I’d agree that the sense of “zoning out” is more prevalent in the ND community.
I guess my main reluctance here is that whilst the effects may feel the same for some people, I’m skeptical that the underlying mechanism is (beyond the aforementioned increased risk of sleep issues), and wanted to ensure that headline-only readers didn’t think this article was necessarily representative of autism.
I wasn’t saying it was tied to ND, but rather our community experiences it much more often than the general population.
I call them the episodes as my brains screensaver.
