    I’m on the autism spectrum myself, and I also have complex PTSD. And I’m totally blind. Anxiety and depression are a real thing for me. I don’t think a lot of people care or understand what it’s like. This is one of the many reasons why I isolate myself from the world. Because I know I’m quirky. And the CPTSD and anxiety and depression don’t really help. Music helps me to regulate though. Music and sensory items and equipment. I’ve been afraid, embarrassed and ashamed to share publicly that I was blind. Just because I know how the world works. There are people out there who don’t care, don’t understand, who don’t believe me, or who are just plain ignorant about it.

    • @siennaprice1351
      @siennaprice1351 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Dr Yuching Lee the reason why I ask about blindness is because I have Septo Optic Dysplasia, which is a brain condition that causes blindness, and I’m one of the many people with this condition who is blind.

    Yesterday I was at a Five Below with my dad and my sister looking for a birthday present.
    The music was too loud and between that, the bright lighting, too many things in the store in general and different conversations, I ended up having a sensory overload so, yeah, just wanted to share.
    Have a great day:afternoon/night!

    I'm trying to not be overly negative, but I think this video FAR downplays what it means to experience anxiety. As a "person with autistic traits" (I have not be diagnosed) but with CPTSD, I have if not absolutely constant anxiety, then at least anxiety that is a major factor in my life. It wasn't until later in life that I even realized I had anxiety, because I probably never knew what it was like to live without it. Sensory stimuli, the struggle to control excruciatingly painful and powerful emotions, (conversely) the nagging that means I have unprocessed "hidden" emotions, anxiety related to the normal stressors of life, my brain's struggle with verbal language, the need to sometimes keep pushing FAR beyond my abilities, and even certain food additives (MSG and possibly some artificial sweeteners) all contribute to anxiety (which can be a mix of nervousness, fear, bottled-up energy, stress, and my brain's confusion and bafflement.)

    Oh wow.
    You were like: "Or get really chatty"
    And I am like: " Huh thats me anytime I'm in a n intense situation."
    Like for example when I started dating my current (and new) girlfriend. On the first date we took a nice long walk together and at some point ran out of stuff to talk, but I just kept on blabbering about the situation my feels etc. Cause I was so head over and felt good with her that I just tried over-playing my anxiousness.
    She stayed quite like thr shy type she is.
    But it didn't matter we connected in a very deep way and now I am happy to see where the relationship goes.
    And I've always been this way, cause when I am tense I don't like the quietness, it makes me go wild and my ADHD mind just blows up in thoughts over thoughts.
    So talking helps me to really get away from that inner hell

    I can't imagine how my life would be like without the high anxiety, and I also don't think I'd take chemicals to calm it down. I think I love being an autistic. Besides, I've been an autistic for sixty years now. Why would I wanna change who I am. Like everything else in life , it has ups and downs.

      And no one understands it. They just label you 'emotional.' No one knows how much you just want to disappear, but you don't go that route, because of that one person whom you know it'd break their heart. So, you just keep suffering every day.

      When she mentioned sound, it hit home for me. Tone, frequency, and certain sounds at certain octaves can affect positively or negatively depending on the circumstances, scenario, surroundings, emotions, etc and it can affect me for several years before I understand how and why I was effected as such.

In fact you lose credibility by doing this. Those "ads" don't even spell victimization properly! It is spelt "vicitimiziation".

    I might have never been diagnosed with autism but I do have destructive anxiety where if I get hurt or have anxiety attacks I start to hurt myself and pull my hair or bang my head. Kinda hard when people don’t understand why you may have a sensitivity to things if you’re not properly diagnosed with it. Like I have sensitivity with flickering lights in a store or restaurant but I don’t have epilepsy and can watch flash lights on a screen. It’s very confusing and wish society didn’t fuck over everyone who’s not the proper “standard”
