Yes! Thank you for sharing <3

The research I've been reading on proprioception and social cognition essentially had ADHD & ASD at opposite ends of the 'ception spectrum. For example, they found that people with ADHD tend to have under-responsive proprioception (i.e. invading personal space & bumping into things), where as Autistic people tended to over-rely on proprioception (i.e. to facilitate social immitation)... As always, the research falls behind in terms of what Actual Humans experience, but intellectually interesting nonetheless.
