@draevans Initial research also points to an electrical element, too. https://t.co/6ajtxRTltX
*Adding further. Was it a brain event caused by epileptiform spikes? See https://t.co/yCeppaxBnW for details, noting that 'aggression' was in some way linked to these electrical blips in the brain. In which case, how are we defining 'aggression'?

I'll then add in this piece of research. https://t.co/yCeppaxBnW and its finding that 'aggressive behaviours' were very strongly linked to electrical 'blips' in the brain, and those without the electrical 'blips' were very unlikely to show 'aggression'. h

https://t.co/OKglTWBSRY The link to the latest research. Very strong link indeed between unusual brain activity, and 'aggression'.
Behaviors are responses to experiences. This does not surprise me at all; meltdowns and shutdowns feel physical, neurological, and connected to overstimulation - like epilepsy.
