Depression: A Self-guided Program to Overcome Depression (An Authoritative Book on Identifying Symptoms) David Harris

Autism is a disorder that affects a person's communication, interests, and social interactions. The polyvagal theory shows us that autistic individuals are unable to communicate, interact with people or analyze social data normally. As a result, their bodies often read fight-flight-freeze responses and shut down. During childhood, their body remains in immobilization mode. The consequence is that they become agitated, have difficulties digesting food, and their interactions with the outside community is distorted. Their social engagement system has not been fully integrated. This condition may occur as a result of emotional trauma, fear at birth, or their vagus nerve was silence or damaged, leading to their nervous system not fully developing.

It is time to talk a little biology and physiology. There is a part of your nervous system that is very important to learn about; your Vagus Nerve. This is one of the 12 cranial nerves in your body. And it is also the longest cranial nerve. It starts in your brainstem, and "wanders" down your body. It passes through your neck, through your lungs and heart, into your stomach, and through your digestive tract. And this nerve uses the length and connection to benefit your body when it is working properly.
