It is deeply and awfully ironic that the minds of normal neuroscientist are
part of this naturally evolved 'conspiracy' (i.e., our *almost flawlessly*
AEVASIVEly evolved and operating brains;) NOT to deeply understand [or at
least NOT sufficiently clearly and completely ENOUGH to inspire wide-spread
implementation of in principle cheap and simple social and self-regulatory
remedies) what is going on.
You are always pointing this irony out, but in a usually *non*-ironic way,
using unusual 'technical' terms.
Other people, who understanding the same scenario but in somewhat different
ways to you, say something along these lines:
Certain chronically and/or traumatically deprived needs, here especially
"touch deprivation" and being held and naturally rocked (while carried
around) in early infancy, also deprives the deprived individual's brain of
local brain-growth-promoting stimulation; and thereby also causing a
hypotrophic condition that is naturally sought to be compensated for in some
NOT necessarily successful way -- e.g., by a 'socially disturbing' ADHD type
brain functural compromise [just to stay on-topic in this thread].
Some of the simplifying concEPTual and explanatory tricks that I use to
understanding mainly myself and people in general, include talking and
thinking about ourselves in terms of:
The somewhat tenuously tailored acronym-term "AEVASIVE".
It approximatley stands for: "Ambi-advantageously Evolved Vital (or Vested,
or any other desperately invoked V-word) Actention (Selection) System,
Incorporating (amongst many other key brain-functural elements) Various
Endoopiates (use "endoopiates" both because of the acronym-building
alphabetic character it provides, and because endogenous opiate-like
neuromodulators exist in a central 'psychophysiological position' and play a
known role that is quite instructive in a certain respect - one that this
acronym is partly meant to refer to);
CURSES [short, and appropriately nasty, for: "conditioned-in unconscious
remembrances/reverberations of (SHITS-type) stressors, effecting
symptoms] -- refers to a type of conditioned in states (most centrally a
type of memories);
And, for what CURSES are being caused by, I use "selective Hibernation"
imploring type (life-)situation(s)" -- or "SHITS" for something sneeringly
short and appropriately unpleasant sounding.
