  • My goodness. It’s a real thing?

    I also have Alice in Wonderland Syndrome. Learning that AIWS was a real thing as an adult was shocking and then brought me a great deal of comfort, making me feel less insane.

    Now learning about tachysensia i am equally shocked and comforted. It was always very scary when I experienced it as a child and would often happen specifically with my father, who was a difficult and often mentally abusive person. He was scary to begin with but sometimes his movements would become faster than a human should be able to move and he would be so much louder than anything else which made me so much more afraid.

    I can’t believe this is a real thing. Absolutely amazing.













  • The last paragraph is noteworthy. Particularly the “However” and the “Additionally” parts:

    The study makes an important contribution to the scientific understanding of psychological specificities of individuals with ADHD. However, it also has limitations that need to be considered. Notably, it was performed in one specific political situation and on members of a small homogenous national group. Additionally, all findings were based on self-reports. Studies on other cultures and using clinical diagnosis of ADHD might yield different results.
