The Neural Architecture of Transformation: Bridging Dąbrowski's Theory of Positive Disintegration and Hyperneuroplasticity
Dąbrowski’s Theory of Positive Disintegration anticipated what neuroscience now begins to affirm: certain nervous systems are built for transformation. Hyperneuroplasticity may provide the biological foundation for developmental potential, with the third factor as its governing mechanism and multilevelness as its structural expression.

AuDHD and Bipolar Disorder: Comorbidity and Misdiagnosis
For many years, AuDHDers may have been misidentified as having bipolar disorder, meaning that studies of bipolar populations could actually be describing this experience. This raises critical questions about how much of the literature reflects autistic and dynamically attentive lived realities rather than distinct mood disorder trajectories.

Dynamic Systems, Process Metaphysics, and Hyperneuroplasticity: Stability Through Flux
Epigenetics illustrates how coherence at the cellular level is achieved through regulatory processes that are themselves mutable. Process metaphysics explains this at the level of being, while hyperneuroplasticity captures it in the lived experience of certain neurobiological profiles. Whether at the scale of molecules, neural networks, or whole organisms, stability arises by transforming with change rather than resisting it.

Stress, the Amygdala, and Hyperneuroplasticity
a hyperneuroplastic brain is like a high-speed recorder. It takes a snapshot of stressful or threatening experiences and plays them back on repeat, long after the danger is gone. That rapid wiring can be life-saving in moments of real threat, yet it also explains why stress can leave such deep grooves, making it harder to shake habits of fear, vigilance, or avoidance once they’ve been learned.

Hyperneuroplasticity as the Umbrella Neurodivergence for Deep Neural Adaptation
For years, we've been handed diagnostic fragments. Each label attempts to describe a set of traits, challenges, or neurological styles. Yet beneath the variation, there is a shared thread running through many of these lived experiences, one that rarely gets named directly: a nervous system that adapts quickly, deeply, and often at great cost.

Galvanic Systems: A Deeper Dive into the Metaphor, with Help from a Marine Engineer
And like ships designed for long, demanding journeys, galvanic individuals need regular maintenance, conscious design, and systems that help them stay afloat, without corroding in silence, sinking into hidden spaces, or wrecking against unattended shores.
