This is a great example of autonomic dysfunction

I've been talking about *autonomic dysfunction *for the last year now.  I want to give a very basic example of what someone with autonomic dysfunction can experience.

This is about as basic as it gets and hopefully this will help, at least some people to better understand autonomic dysfunction.

If you look at this picture, you'll notice that Gavin is wearing a long sleeve hoody. What you don't know is that it was 85°F today, when this picture was taken.

Basically, Gavin's body doesn't regulate temperature.

He's almost always cold and so he wears long sleeves all year round.

It's just one of the many areas that can be touched when something like the autonomic nervous system isn't working right.
