Signs of understimulation (Based on a tiktok by ndwellness, summarized for own reference)
1. Craving something but not knowing what it is, as if you "repeatedly open the fridge but you can't find anything that's satisfying"
2. Thought patterns that rapidly become more unrealistic and pessimistic
3. Physically stuck on the edge of your seat, fidgeting or moving from app to app on your phone
4. Worry about wasting time/ not doing what you're supposed to be doing
5. Impulsiveness
@ijyx very similar to ADHD brains here

Does not surprise me... my personal pet theory is that ASD and ADHD are just the introvert and extrovert variants of the same neurological condition. Which would explain why I (ASD) easily get along with ADHD people.
@kawaiipunk @anathem
tbh i think its quite easily disproven by the fact that introverted ADHDers and extroverted autistics exist
but maybe im missing something?
@ijyx @kawaiipunk
Well, apparently I didn't use introvert/extrovert in the narrow definition you seem to be accustomed to... and I certainly didn't mean them to be any absolute. As with most shortened descriptions, I wanted to convey the general direction of my idea; to be expanded by the reader with all the fuzzy fringes of reality.
@anathem @ijyx but yeh I tend to get on super well with ASD folks
