Behavior Characteristics Of Autism | Head Banging | Ear Slapping
As a researcher and autistic survivor, I can state that children with autism can hear sounds above the average person hearing range. Although high pitch sounds cannot be heard normally, to an autistic child these sounds can cause intense inner ear pain.
When parents see their child either covering or slapping their ears, it’s usually not an attention getter…they’re in pain. In extreme cases, in order to knock the pain out, they bang their head against a wall. This is how they try to stop the intense pain.
This inner ear pain was virtually unknown to Genet’s parents.
“I saw the world differently…from the inside out, totally isolated where this pain existed. I wasn’t able to express to my parents what I was experiencing.” Today, Genet now knows that this isolation was caused by the inability for his brain to be able to ground to his physical body.
Genet goes on to explain, “My brain’s inability to ground to its physical body didn’t allow me to complete the pathway or circuit into a normal reality. In the world I lived in, I spoke properly, maintained mental focus, emotional balance and occasionally felt this inner ear pain.
I wasn’t able to travel back and forth between a normal reality and the only reality I knew, due to this lack of grounding. I wasn’t able to create any mental, emotional or physical filters that would protect me from these high pitch sounds. In a normal reality, people can filter out these sounds, protecting them from this intense inner ear pain. I could not.”
Genet states that there were two reasons why his brain couldn’t ground itself to his physical body.
1) His childhood vaccination’s preservatives reeked havoc on his brain’s ability to form proper brain wave frequencies required for this grounding to occur.
2) The electro magnetic fields of energy in the home that interferes with the brain’s circuitry. These fields of energy are generated by the use of florescent lighting, microwave ovens, TV’s, computers, electronic equipment, flying in airplanes, and driving in a car.
Most autistic behavior is usually diagnosed as acting out or being rebellious. As you have learned here, when a child does act in this way, slapping his ears or banging the head against a wall, it’s a 98% chance your child is in intense pain.
