You can get tested for this if you have ASD by getting a copeptin test.
What do you change about your lifestyle with that test result? I have a child with ASD, and also drinks mad amounts of water. But I didn't see any treatment plan if this deficiency is confirmed.

I’ve theorized in my book _Fat Gas_ that vasopressin levels are tied to elevated indoor CO2 levels. Would not be at all surprised if these novel social conditions stem from not going outside enough and from poorly ventilated buildings (especially gyms and conference rooms) and transport (planes trains and automobiles each routinely exceed 1000 ppm from everybody’s lungs).
Or dense urban housing. But we're not allowed to criticize that, right. Homes with yards and green space are evil!
The issue isn’t the higher amount of CO2 in the ambient air in the cities (AIUI it is; marginally; but it doesn’t matter); it’s that CO2 is very good at concentrating in enclosed spaces.

This doesn't follow? The co2 level indoors is decided far more by whether you have the windows open (or perhaps if you're cooking) than whether you have people living close by to you.

CO2 levels are high in enclosed spaces, not in urban environments
People who live in urban environments statistically spend less time outdoors.

Citation? Won't people who live in small apartments need to go out more often for necessities? I know I did.

In US cities, going for groceries barely entails time spent outside. You drive your mobile living room to the store and back.

So you can Google that and see how that is treated and tested for.
That’s a fascinating introduction - they are concerned that dual (!) name of the molecule might be hiding all of its functions! It looks like naming thing is not just a problem for programmers.
