Brain Healing received from God with autism

I know some autistic people struggle in this area so I thought I would share this here with you how I recieved healing to my brain with my sensory. I am still autistic, but read below my healing story if interested.

For several years now I have been struggling with my brain and hearing my own thoughts in my head and hearing what other people have said to me being played back in a repetitive echo in my brain. This appeared to be due to my sensory condition and autism. I have quite significant repetition in the brain with autism. It has appeared in my head MRI scan. It got quite bad and it was like different parts of my brain the signals were faulty. My head got quite unusable really and I got healing for it. 

 I never had voices in my head unknown to me. It was my thoughts I was hearing what I had said or written myself or what others had said being played back on an echo so repetitively in my brain. My last brain scan of my head showed likely potential issues with repetition which is a feature of Autism for some people. What happened is that I was having say an autistic thought and a thought from my everyday life and me generally and they were like meeting in my brain together and cross wiring. It was a bit of a mess and like they would speak back to each other. It was just messy and now it is perfect thanks be to God. 

I am in my early 50s and so thankful for it. The work to repair it lasted for about 4 weeks. Once a week I would sit at home and it felt like my brain would start lightly spinning and it like it was being worked on. One intervention came at Church last week. It just got cold around me-the breath of wind The Holy Ghost and my brain was being worked on as I sat and the cross interchanging of my thoughts just ceased and it is so much better. I am so grateful. I was praying for it a while. I receive the Eucharist and blood of Christ at Church and I have been going regularly for a while now.I still have autism but my head is now more usable. 

Periventricular white matter abnormalities and restricted repetitive behavior in autism spectrum disorder.

Now I was diagnosed with Level 2 in this category-Stereotyped Behaviours and Restricted Interests. I had a head scan at the end of 2022 and it showed that I had issues that were in line with repetition as has been discussed in medical journals about autism.

Periventricular WMH volume was not associated with age but was associated with greater restricted repetitive behaviours.. Thus, findings demonstrate that periventricular WMH volume is elevated in ASD and associated with a higher degree of repetitive behaviors and restricted interests"

“There are a few periventricular and subcortical white matter signal abnormalities bilaterally which are nonspecific but more than expected for patient of this age”.

    Thank you Holly_Scope. I am glad that I still kept onto the old me and my autism, but it is just a better working model now. My hearing for now has even become more sensory with the changes and I am thrilled with it all.

    @MsR

    Thank you for sharing your story it was an interesting read. It’s great to hear things have improved for you. Sometimes answers come from places we don’t expect, like faith or hearing other's experiences. Wishing you strength and peace moving forward.

    Having a later in life diagnosis of autism in 2021 at age 54 now, as a traditional Catholic, I take these stories of healing very seriously indeed - I’d love to know more
