Memantine alters striatal plasticity inducing a shift of synaptic responses toward long-term depression.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26471421
Basically it could prevent some long-term neurodegeneration, possibly even increase cognitive ability past the baseline a bit by preventing normal damage caused by glutamate, allowing the brain to recover more readily.
This would be particularly relevant for people on the autism spectrum and those with other disorders that may involve excessive levels of glutamate/neurological activity / insufficient levels of GABA. Epilepsy would likely be one of them, possibly even things like severe general anxiety and maybe OCD. By insufficient levels I really mean the net effect. Post-synaptic levels aren't all there is to it, of course. There are a variety of deficits that could lead to long-term damage.
The downside is that, at least for people who don't have a need for it related to the above, it could potentially reduce neuroplasticity and the development of some skills. I don't have much of a concern about it, I think that overall the evidence is strongly in favor of memantine as a beneficial substance. -

Dude, you would probably never meet someone better at shutting the fuck up than me. I literally almost never speak unless necessary, more than necessary. If we were roommates I could probably go years without saying a word to you. -

My ass probably looked better than 90% of women's. -

Originally posted by Lanny If you were good at it you'd make more money than programming but you won't be good at it since it requires people skills. Even the most stereotypical rainman fund manager needed to put on a suit and be not-autistic for years to get started. There are many fields that will tolerate your social inability on a good day, computer science is one, investment banking is not.
Seeing as you probably haven't taken anything but GE courses at this point I'd suggest suspending judgement on what is and isn't fulfilling.
Lanny, just so you know, I don't normally dress the way I did when I met with you. I had everything in a bag and put it on while i was nearby because I wanted to do something funny, and because I'm so painfully shy I feel far more comfortable in a disguise. I just wanted to mess with you, I'm not socially inept enough to believe I look cool.
I was also kind of fucked up because I had literally had a seizure that morning, and a week before that I had broken down and checked myself into the ER for severe alcoholism, because I was probably on the verge of full blown seizures, and admitted I was suicidal.
I had also been a full blown hiki for like 5 years, having spoken about 10 words a month only out of necessity for 1-2 years, and ended up developing agoraphobia and anthropophobia.
I'll admit I don't know how to talk to people and normally have no desire to, but given the circumstances, that having been my first IRL conversation in years, did I really do that badly? I mean, I tried to be nice and bullshit with you, although it completely slipped my mind that it's odd to never look directly at someone while speaking, along with my bad posture and other habits.
I have 4 years to rehabilitate myself in college, with the help of benzos and amphetamine, and my brain is hyper-plastic due to Asperger's. I could potentially recreate myself if I put in the effort.
I actually found out a philosophy club was reactivated this semester because the president and another person came into my philosophy class to speak about it. I'm planning on attending the meeting tomorrow, although I really wish I had some benzos on hand, it's just taken so long to meet with a goddamn psychiatrist, far longer than I expected. Well, regardless, I'm just planning on checking it out. Who knows what this could lead to.
Actually, I was just trolling you about investment banking and was hoping for a negative rant from you. -
2018-03-14 at 1 AM UTC in The Retardest Thread: Fashionably Late Edition.I’d like to note that I’m unable to function well without medication due to Asperger’s. The amount of symtoms and rate of comorbidity with disorders such as OCD, ADD, depression, and anxiety, is absurd.
Once I get back on my good boy pills, which I genuinely need, you’ll notice a marked undeniable difference. Right now I’m pretty scattered brain and can’t really apply myself. There’s nothing wrong with requiring medication, we’re all dependant on something to live and function properly.
Professor Malice will return one day. -

2018-03-13 at 11:33 PM UTC in The Retardest Thread: Fashionably Late Edition.I'm thinking about changing majors and trying to get into investment banking. I really just want more money, and my divergent thinking and other autistic powers could make me a force to be reckoned with. You're in the financial sector, Lanny, what's your opinion on this?
To be honest, computer programming for the financial sector seems like pretty unfulfilling, tedious, monotonous, soul crushing work; at least when it goes on for years, let alone decades.
I'm also planning on claiming I'm transgender to increase my chances of getting into a good college. I'll go as far as to cross dress, wearing makeup and a wig, as well as lying to a therapist/psychologist if I have to. After I get in I'll just drop the act. "Oh, it turns out I may not have been transgender after all! I may simply be gender fluid and I'm currently going through a masculine phase." -

You are not a genius, sploo. You have demonstrated no ability to actually utilize your alleged cognitive prowess, to produce anything of value.
Before you respond, please note that I have never claimed to be a genius and have always been brutally honest about my severe faults and deficits.
Absolutely delusional. Can you imagine being 30 and still bragging about the scores you received on online IQ tests, having nothing else? -

2018-03-13 at 8:21 PM UTC in The Retardest Thread: Fashionably Late Edition.Imagine showing up to the first day of the fall semester in a Japanese schoolgirl uniform and wig running through crowded areas while holding a piece of toast near your mouth and repeatedly saying, "I'm going to be late! I'm going to be late!"
Pretty tempting. Only question is who to cosplay as. You should definitely have a beard for this. -
2018-03-13 at 4:10 AM UTC in The Retardest Thread: Fashionably Late Edition.Oh, hey, this is the move I managed to pull off in the psych ward. Harai goshi!
https://youtu.be/1M0jd8vw1E4?t=1m3s
I did it twice in quick succession and I think one of the guys there knew the name of the move I had used, although I don't know if it was this exact one, and said, "Two harai goshis!". It was a badass moment. Makes me want to give MMA a try. It would be great cardio and I want to fight people. Pulling off moves like this is really cool in fun, slamming in particular.
Later on I may have overheard two of the female staff members, girls in their early to mid 20s (2 of them were kind of cute, 1 in particular), after one of the asked, "So what's the deal with Malice?" Towards the end she started saying some things related to Naruto, which probably stemmed from them having heard about what I did.
I'm glad I didn't go full force because I could have faced serious assault charges if I had. It was a dumb move to use when surrounded anyway. The key to dealing with multiple opponents is to keep backpedaling and taking them on one at a time, and if you're ever surrounded you're immediate priority should be to break through them. -

Either you may legitimately suffer from a serious mental illness or you are extremely manipulative. Your constant trolling and lying definitely betrays something about your true nature.

2018-03-13 at 3:42 AM UTC in The Retardest Thread: Fashionably Late Edition.I changed my mind about the pace of the Japanese class, it's actually going too slow. I've already memorized all the hiragana, including the modifications and combinations (ka to ga, ha to pa, combos with yu ye yo) and now I'm close to memorizing the katakana and I haven't even tried that hard. Vocabulary is relatively easy as well.
I guess I should focus more on grammar and maybe get started on kanji earlier.
