“Trial and error” is the main name of the game in mental health treatments. Human variability in our reactions to drugs/biologics is never uniform and sometimes quite divergent. Then, we try to do brains.

I’m still considering getting diagnosed (or not) despite having a now early 20s son on the spectrum and seeing all the flashing red light parallels. If I did this, the trick would be to find a therapist who knows what to do with people on the spectrum. And if i research that too much, it won’t work. PubMed is a blessing for research …just not for research on oneself!

Well, N=2 but my son and I both experienced this first hand.

That said, having (admittedly long ago) worked in pharma/biotech I agree that without proper controls/constraints, it is a rather broad statement to make, regardless of how intuitive it is.

Well one thing to consider is that for people on the spectrum, CBT and other such therapies are not nearly as effective.
