It should be noted this works really well against those who are predisposed to self-doubt and self-introspection, self-awareness, etc. And not at all against those with an inherently strong ego. Who tend to be the ones to employ it in the first place.
Worst part of autism is trying to explain what it is to people while one of the core traits is inability to describe or express subtle emotions and feelings. Like, I only know I'm hungry when my stomach is roaring and I'm about to pass out. Apparently normal people feel hungry much earlier.
The early signals for feeling hungry, or full, are basically instinctive, like a timer. Your brain is sort of guessing when you should start eating based on when you last ate, or stop eating based on when you started. This is what most people feel. The urgent signal for when you actually require food, is the one you described. Your stomach will also send out an urgent signal when it is almost physically full that makes it incredibly difficult to keep eating, but most people will rarely experience this as you have to mentally block the early signal for some time. I didn't know that those with autism didn't experience those feelings. But it does make some sense as they are subtle feelings like you say. If you don't mind me asking, what is your experience in regards to feeling full?
I got this odd quirk where I cannot process fear. I have adapted to it pretty well; I know when I am supposed to feel fear most of the time. But it does result in some pretty awkward situations when I watch horror films and I'm LMAO when everyone else is terrified.

I took shrooms and it caused me to experience an incredibly high level of sensory sensitivity that my son deals with every day as a product of his autism. It was fun until I couldn’t turn it off right away. It made me a more patient father.
That is actually awesome. Psychedelics can really give you one hell of a new perspective. For me personally i took a shitload of acid and dmt, and i got about 7 different devistating reality checks that made me understand my entire childhood, overcome an identity crisis, develop my world view which made me happy for the first time in years and decide to go to therapy which eliminated the last bit of my problems. Without those i would probably be an alcoholic by now. I am 6 years sober.
Explaining autism to a non-autistic person that, for some reason, just hits so many of the same marks can be frustrating because it's hard not to think "I don't know what to tell you man, talk to a doctor" when every trait is met with "yea but I mean I do that too what's with that then?". Best way I can describe autism in a generalized sense, is that it's the same input/output, of sensations/emotions/thoughts but it goes through a different path between A and B, this leads to a similar sense of reality, but a sometimes vastly different set of essential values and points of attention, which can lead to communication difficulties because both parties identify concepts by different values, one considers an elephant a gray thing, the other says it's a big thing, but it is a big gray thing, and both wonder how the other can't see how big or how gray it is. With that as a framework, there's as much space for having a personality, preferences, faults and irrationalities as any non-autistic person, some of us are smart, some of us are not smart; some of us like people, some of us avoid people, the differences don't so much sit in the outside effects of autism, behavior can be developed and pidgeon holing people also forces groups within a margin, but what autism is more is a difference in processing internally.
@@Justcarlosdiaz Nah, I got an autism diagnosis forced on me when I was six years old, for me it doesn't do or explain shit aside from being an inherently lesser thing compared to full human beings.
You can't physically wrap your mind around an elephant in your eye sight being described as gray and big? If you said its gray but not big, the literal elephant in front of you disappears??? When do we get to start calling ppl dymb again ffs.
I remember when Rick was explaining how he learned about his autism to someone else awhile back. He got really emotional because he said it helped explain so many things that happened throughout his life that he couldn't explain. He was crying. Imagine just going through life and having situations occur and you don't understand why. Than you're a full grown adult and it's finally explained to you. When it should have been diagnosed as a child. Today it is much different than when he or I were kids. Kids see therapists (not just the school one we all saw) on a regular basis. Their feelings are assessed better. Today I find it painful to make myself go to a therapist or my psychologist even though I believe in the institution very much. I just hate going. I'll admit it. So instead I just end up replying to videos like this with a gigantic paragraph about how I feel.
The "oh this is why I suffer or couldnt do this as good as I thought I should" realization was insane with my diagnosis but it's like 700 million times more insane when I learned about the eight fold path (right view specifically). Western therapeutic mindfullness is a complete joke once you understand the real thing. With autism you can fully observe sensations, attachments and mental objects way easier which is a tool for the path to cease unsatisfaction, hate, greed and delusion/ignorance.
Bill: "What's Autism?" Also Bill: *Doesn't let Rick answer the question because of Bill's frequent side-bar distractions.* This reminds me of every time I play a board game with my friends. No matter what game it is, we always end up playing "Who's got their 'tism in enough check to keep us focused?"
Being an AuDHDer is a strange experience at times: it just doesn’t make sense why other people sometimes do certain things that objectively seem frivolous, wrongful, or otherwise illogical. Sometimes I have to meditate for a minute to figure out what the incoming signals I’m feeling are, because sometimes the lines blur between tired and fully wakeful when I’ve not had meds, or hungry and satiated in general. It’s a sort of quantum perception: until certain senses are directly observed, they exist in superposition, and are therefore unknowable until directly observed. My mind and perception is a mystery at times to even myself, due to our inherent struggle of putting feelings into words and the like, which is another reason I often sound like someone from a bygone era; I use complex words and older phrases because that’s the only way I can get certain messages across.
Yes! I was never diagnosed but I've never heard a description or trait of autism that I haven't identified with on a deep level. My issues fed into crippling social anxiety because I could never have any clue what someone else was thinking or expecting of me, and I couldn't express myself or even make small talk because the amount of processing anything had to get through in my brain just resulted in awkward silences (only due to that feeling of expectation. I preferred silence). I'm already feeling like I'm not addressing your points the way I intended. Yeah, people never made much sense to me and still don't. And they seem to know intuitively social or societal things I just couldn't grasp or have any skill at and on some level had no interest in being a part of besides fitting in. It has always felt like this paradox of "I can't express why I can't express or explain why I can't explain. I think things just work differently in my mind but I can never really know because I can't understand anyone else's mind".
From how he describes it, it sounds like Autism is kind of like the color spectrum. You could be at the yellow part of autism. You could be purple autism. Maybe red autism. They're all just as much a color as the others though. A red and blue might have completely different symptoms but are equally autistic.
Yeah this is really accurate. The things autistic people struggle with can change over time as well. For example as a child I didn't have a sensitivity to touch, but as I got older I developed one. It's a lot harder to find clothes I can wear now
Not exactly, but that’s close. For diagnosis, there’s three essential traits you need to tick off, all of involve social struggle. The second section has four additional different traits, and you need to have at least two. Every trait can be held to varying degrees. Instead of some people having ‘orange’ autism or ‘green’ autism, think of it like a colour wheel of saturation. Each autistic person has to have a certain number of colours, and some will be more saturated (ie stronger) than others. Which gives so many different combinations and possibilities for how autism can look. I have autism, so I’m not the best at communicating, and certainly not good at metaphors. I tried my best to make this clear, sorry if it doesn’t come out that way. Also, if you want to read the specific criteria for autism to be diagnosed, just Google ‘ASD DSM 5 criteria’. Hope this helps! :)
I can describe my Autism as - very crudely controlling a meatpuppet(my body) through leavers. With trapped very intense emotions you cant express. Aexithymia face deadpan stare people physically recoil at. All your senses are turned up to 11 and they physically hurt. Its like having a siren to your ear while someone shines cringe lasers into your eyes and rubs hedgehogs into your chest. Eye contact is like cringe neutron star blasting into your soul. "Autistic superpower" comes from very strict very repetitive routine management. You can master anything through incorporating skills in this routine due to our repetative nature and more mirror neurons. Most NT people cant do that. But this skill mastery comes at a very heavy price of lack of social skills and norms and lack of emotional expression in your face and monotone voice. So its very hard to integrate into society.
Every comment I read from an autistic perspective triggers a realization about another piece of something from my formative years, although often unrelated. The "meatpuppet" comment reminded me how everyone else seemed have this fully formed sense of self and their place in the world and what they're supposed to do. I would look in the mirror and think "WTF is that? Is that me? That's what others see, when I'm trying to express myself? It doesn't feel like the 'me' I know." Just... totally surreal. Like I'm a half-written character in a first-draft novel.
@@Cat-o-mancer You can think about it like this. Lets imagine that people have two brains, rational and social one. I think all our senses are heightened and our social brain is wired closer to feelings center. Its overwhelms much easier thus autistics suppress social brain. This supression makes you awkward and lacking social skills and disrespect hierarchy .Your social brain is suppressed leading to alexthymia face, leading to further spiraling isolation. Everyone else social brain is okay and they have social advantage/experience over you. So you end up with rational brain, no social life, emotionally awkward and depressed. So... think about your social brain as a pet that needs walks, hierarchy or social status/role, socializing in moderating to escape spiraling conditions mentioned above. But be aware that our social battery is very quick to charge, but doesn't warn you when its empty. Hope it helps!
@@dylancarroll3664 That's my kind of Autistic answer; the one where you correct the word choice, grammar, or spelling of the person you're communicating with. Else, I just sit back and judge the person for being dumb as I totally miss the social cues that the hot girl is checking me out.
Ikr? It was like a random, nonsensical little gremlin just sneaking out of his brain for no reason. It knew it had no business in the conversation, but it just whispered it's way out anyway. 🤫😆
Explaining it to neural typical people, I say "Everyone has their own experience and I may be way off for some but this might help a little. You have PCs and Macs. Both are computers but with different operating systems. They're able to do similar functions but have differing software and processes. You don't do computers, ok. iPhones and Androids. What are you? iPhone? Here's an Android, do a FaceTime for me."
"Siete no bueno" as a translation for "a five threat" to expound upon the concept of the English idiom "triple threat" is not exactly Spanish fluency! 😂 It's definitely _something_ though! 🙃 (Siete means 7)
I have two boys on the Autism spectrum. High IQ, good at math and computer programming. Sensitive and slow to pick up social cues. It's a super power, linked to a dozen minor deficits.
Was it blatantly obvious to you as a parent in both of them? Essentially I'm wondering if a narcissistic self centered couple of parents could miss it? *asking for a friend lol.
@@adamfrbs9259 Nope. Not obvious. We had a preschool teacher say "he processes differently." I replied that we ALL process differently. Then we got him checked out. It came as a tough blow. But we love him now, just the way he is. The second boy we were watching for it.
@freesk8 ah ok. Well at least you were attentive enough to catch it. I didn't have kids, but I did get a monster of a dog, a Presa Canario, that lived his entire life with me until 4 months ago. Can't pick what they struggle with, but I did the best I could, he never harmed a fly, loved kids and people and was insanely loyal and fierce protecting me. Wouldn't have changed a thing, despite alot of difficulty in some areas with him. Cut both of them loose in a music store and see what instrument they go after, music is good for everything in my opinion. 😉
@freesk8 nice, my sister went as far as you can possibly go with the piano before becoming a professional, scholarships and all. Then walked away from it 1st semester. I've been forced to listen to thousands of hours of piano practice growing up lol. Forced lessons for piano for me was annoying though, drums and guitar I got to choose at least. Now I'm at the age most say "learn an instrument", but I already have lol. I've went down the looper rabbit hole this week. Cut em loose on a Boss 505 MkII looper with a keyboard or piano. That would kill endless hours of time if they get really into it.
For many mental health disorders (autism, bipolar, sociopathy, anxiety, etc.), there's not necessarily anything "wrong" with the person It just means that they're wired differently enough from most other people, that: A) It might cause significant social friction; and B) It's conversationally and medically convenient to have a name for those differences
The issue I find with it is that you could diagnose literally anybody with a mental disorder.. so unless you're noticeably mentally handicapped then what's the problem? I don't understand the benefit of a diagnosis beyond it making you feel like you're not responsible for how you act.
To be diagnosed with a mental healthy disorder it has to be causing distress and affect the functioning of an individuals life. That can include an individuals social life. But not just that alone. A lot of disorders cause psychological stress which then effects a persons physiology. For example, people with OCD have lower average lifespans. Possibly due to the stress of having obsessive thoughts. So I disagree, there is something “wrong” with a lot of disorders. However, I understand how someone can say autism is not dis functional just because those who are diagnosed don’t usually conform to social norms.
@@M1GYT also it might be kind of dumb and unfair but there is the whole societal aspect of "is this person just lazy/stupid/rude or do they have an actual problem that they can't help?" in a fairer world perhaps "being a lazy stupid jerk" would itself be treated like a "real" problem that needs patience and understanding - after all, in a lot of cases, it is a serious hindrance for that person's long-term happiness just like autism or OCD or BPD - but the fact is there's just no agreed upon criteria for being one. maybe someday.
When expressed monotone or indifference is seen as lack of care, or tonal change seen as negative or aggressive. To a person like me who is Autistic, “x topic” does not need emotional response always. Especially with neutral concepts like eating food. Does it taste good, does it seem nice, do you enjoy? Yes. I have no other need to express myself now I will eat. The worst is when interpreting logic faster than the speaking party. I will sit through your monologue now after you have steer extracurricular phrases into your speech after I have already responded or asked an acknowledgment question after your points presented. Repetition is common in all speech formats regardless of language and the hypocritical use of it against when I speak (especially to my family) is discourtesy.
I've always wondered if some of us do pick up on the facial cues but we steamroll them anyways. I think quite a few of us just ignore all of those facial cues and try to justify or fix their faces with whatever we say next
What sort of symptoms bring adults in to test for autism that they didn't have or notice in childhood? Sometimes I feel like my family already knows I have autism and have kept it from me.
Social difficulties often, and you'll only notice that when you leave school, live on your own, and need to get a job and be the adult. Building relationships, career.. Etcdtera. As a kid you learnt to cope and mask to handle life and seem normal (more or less) but when you are an adult, there are different expectations set on you - and autistic people struggle with the social part although they do their best to act normally, it is stressful to deal with regular stuff. Some people will have learned to deal with it and become successful, the ones who are struggling might eventually come to learn why and how, and that is great.
careful with copyright strikes. I know Troyboi well (the music producer whose song you use in the beginning) he is a nice guy but his team is ruthless. hate for ur channel to get a strike from like 2 sec of. music
I think the problem with mental issues is that people think it follows the same rules as other medical issues. You dont have an autistic virus or gland. Most mental issues are personality or intellectual traits, and how many of them you have and how severe they are determines how far on the spectrum. I have ADHD, but i have no hyperactivity, I have extreme issues with attention deficit and even that is misleading. I notice a million details but I cant keep my attention on any one item. So while I have a pretty bad case of ADHD i dont have half the traits and express the other half in a more uncommon way, but I am considered to have a pretty bad case. Autism is a huge range of traits and is a less of a single type of person and more of a huge pool of traits that dont really fit any where else.
I once talked to a psychologist/psychiatrist and I said I didn't think I was on the spectrum because that's something you're born with and she was like "I don't agree." Now I wish I'd kept at them like "Well, at what point would I have gotten off of the spectrum onto the spectrum? Did my parents drop me as a baby or buy the cheap baby food?"
Autism is damage to the brain that affects regulation of dopamine. Which is why sufferers have problems controlling emotions. Dopamine regulation is essential in maintaining focus and is why autism is seen as a cognitive development issue and usually discovered while kids are at school. The severity of the condition varies as does how it manifests.
The spectrum is severity as well. Some people are completely crippled by their autism and can't hold a job or have any semblance of a normal life. On the most extreme end, people are non-verbal and can't even use the toilet on their own, etc.
I actually wish I was autistic. Unfortunately, I'm just disabled. A lot. And those disabilities translate into autism-like idiosyncrasies which can not be fixed. I simply AM the way I AM. Now I've ironed out most of my major personality flaws from when I was an abused child but the physical stuff? That's forever.
My son is on the spectrum, and I often describe how it might look to someone whose non-autistic as being like a grand piano with random keys that are muted. So if a skilled pianist played a complex piece, almost no one would even notice there were any notes missing. But if someone were to play something simple with only 1 finger like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in an area of keys with 1 or more dead keys, it would be entirely obvious to everyone each time a note is missing.
@@lwo7736 someone high functioning has the tools to mask their deficits. Allowing them in this analogy to play a masterpiece on a piano by working around the deficit. Someone less high functioning hasn't developed these skills and tools and thus can't "play" even something as basic as twinkle twinkle without the deficits being obvious. What I got out of it.
That's a pretty esoteric answer, Derek, but I do not understand your analogy at all. Is the autistic person the pianist, the listener, the song, or the piano?
"When you ask them what they mean, they get mad at you" is ironicly exactly how I would descibe neurotypicals. I am high functioning and for me interacting with another human being in person is about as uncomfortable to my brain as fishing a watch out of a pooped-in toilet with my bare hands. Also some sounds send me into a blind rage and when im paying attention to something my brain doesn't keep track of time at all.
best conversation to have a million times a day is telling your boss or coworkers about having autism, everyone going "no way! your so charismatic we'd have no idea!" then you proceed to do the most typical ASD thing, and everyones suddenly in shock at the outcome. Like yes i can drive a car, no it doesnt have wheels and no one told me
I think autism is like, an umbrella term for a bunch of different shit, and in 100 years there won't be an umbrella term, we'll just understand what all those things are.
I've given up trying to understand autism. Every explanation I've read or heard just confuses me even more. I genuinely want to understand it because I've often wondered if I have some degree of autism but I can never get a conclusive definition that doesn't also overlap with attributes and behaviors of non-autistic people.
@@eddiemalvin the truth is it doesn't matter. Your life wouldn't change if someone told you that you did have it. We're all fucked up to varying degrees, you just have to make the best of what you have and try not to fuck anyone over
@Justcarlosdiaz Well said! That's ultimately where I've landed on the topic. Whether I have it or not, I should still held to the same standard as everyone else so it really doesn't matter.
Most, if not all, autistic traits are normal for neurotypical people to have. It's the combination of having many of those traits, and the severity of those traits that makes it likely for someone to have autism.
I like how he didn't at all explain what autism is. Thats okay though, most people that are doctors and other professionals diagnosing it also don't have a fking clue. Barely anyone does. I work with autistic people to help them be more self sufficient, and im not even allowed to talk about it at work. Its "results oriented" practice... we don't have a choice either, insurance would shut us down if we did real work and the entire medical industry depends on insurance, currently. There are factors that people with autism have that those without don't, and its not just a grouping of different characteristics. There is a rewiring of the brain that is caused by massive inflammatory processes or something else that damages the nervous system. Thats the short version. This is represented in ways such as increased sensitivities, hyper-fixations (because the brain is coping with the impaired functioning), difficulty understanding how others think, ect. The massive chronic inflammation is one of the biggest corollaries.
The problem with modern affirmative social workers is someone like me for example could be easily convinced and watch a podcast about it and say "yeah, I'm 6 or 7 of those things" then you go to a docter and say "yeah im 6 or 7 of those things" and they can't disagree with you or they'll get put in jail so they go "yeah your 6 or 7 of those things" and Whammo, I'm autistic. I've no idea if I'm autistic or not, but if you say your something these days everyone agrees with you so it's kinda fucking hard to figure this stuff out. It's like being asked to rate your pain on a scale of 1 - 10, for that to work you'd have to cause the pain first and tell me "thats a 7" so i have a frame of reference.
Not true though, at least in the UK. I thought I was autistic, as I relate with most of the criteria and several other people suggested it to me. Had discussion with medical professional and she said I definitely am not autistic. No suggestion of going to jail about it lol... (you were exaggerating for comic effect, right?).
No idea what you're on about, Asmo you weirdo. It took me months of dialogue with a professional before I got my diagnosis, and I only got to talk with that professional after I got a referral from my doctor. Whatever you're on about, you need to broaden your pool of sources, bud. Again, f*ck you.
What sort of shit doctors do you go to? Go see your doctor and tell them you know you have cancer. If they don't disagree then they should go to jail. Unless you actually have cancer, then my condolences.
I genuinely believe autism is actually a positive evolutionary branching of the human mind. There's a whole gamut of heightened awareness and sensitivity and a showcase of our need as humans to evolve our narrow communicative norms.

@@Justcarlosdiaz Nah, I got an autism diagnosis forced on me when I was six years old, for me it doesn't do or explain shit aside from being an inherently lesser thing compared to full human beings.
I like your explanation

This is a really fantastic explanation. Thank you for posting
I remember when Rick was explaining how he learned about his autism to someone else awhile back. He got really emotional because he said it helped explain so many things that happened throughout his life that he couldn't explain. He was crying. Imagine just going through life and having situations occur and you don't understand why. Than you're a full grown adult and it's finally explained to you. When it should have been diagnosed as a child. Today it is much different than when he or I were kids. Kids see therapists (not just the school one we all saw) on a regular basis. Their feelings are assessed better. Today I find it painful to make myself go to a therapist or my psychologist even though I believe in the institution very much. I just hate going. I'll admit it. So instead I just end up replying to videos like this with a gigantic paragraph about how I feel.
The "oh this is why I suffer or couldnt do this as good as I thought I should" realization was insane with my diagnosis but it's like 700 million times more insane when I learned about the eight fold path (right view specifically). Western therapeutic mindfullness is a complete joke once you understand the real thing. With autism you can fully observe sensations, attachments and mental objects way easier which is a tool for the path to cease unsatisfaction, hate, greed and delusion/ignorance.
But your last sentence of this giant paragraph just made your reply so epic 😂. I salute you.🫡
@@MrSub132 Yeah, and Christians will tell you to just pray to Jesus and your autism will go away. :P Outta here!

Being an AuDHDer is a strange experience at times: it just doesn’t make sense why other people sometimes do certain things that objectively seem frivolous, wrongful, or otherwise illogical.
Sometimes I have to meditate for a minute to figure out what the incoming signals I’m feeling are, because sometimes the lines blur between tired and fully wakeful when I’ve not had meds, or hungry and satiated in general.
It’s a sort of quantum perception: until certain senses are directly observed, they exist in superposition, and are therefore unknowable until directly observed.
My mind and perception is a mystery at times to even myself, due to our inherent struggle of putting feelings into words and the like, which is another reason I often sound like someone from a bygone era; I use complex words and older phrases because that’s the only way I can get certain messages across.
My autism needing consistency and routine. My ADHD needing spontaneity and getting bored of routine.
Yes! I was never diagnosed but I've never heard a description or trait of autism that I haven't identified with on a deep level. My issues fed into crippling social anxiety because I could never have any clue what someone else was thinking or expecting of me, and I couldn't express myself or even make small talk because the amount of processing anything had to get through in my brain just resulted in awkward silences (only due to that feeling of expectation. I preferred silence).
I'm already feeling like I'm not addressing your points the way I intended. Yeah, people never made much sense to me and still don't. And they seem to know intuitively social or societal things I just couldn't grasp or have any skill at and on some level had no interest in being a part of besides fitting in. It has always felt like this paradox of "I can't express why I can't express or explain why I can't explain. I think things just work differently in my mind but I can never really know because I can't understand anyone else's mind".
From how he describes it, it sounds like Autism is kind of like the color spectrum. You could be at the yellow part of autism. You could be purple autism. Maybe red autism. They're all just as much a color as the others though. A red and blue might have completely different symptoms but are equally autistic.
Yeah this is really accurate. The things autistic people struggle with can change over time as well. For example as a child I didn't have a sensitivity to touch, but as I got older I developed one. It's a lot harder to find clothes I can wear now
My friends literally call it tisms. As in "so what's your tisms?" Or "my tisms are yes to sonic no to loud noises and crowds" 🤣
@@johnsmith8981Sonic the Hedgehog is like the autism mascot for reasons I cannot fully understand
And if you mix all the colors together it becomes Brown
Not exactly, but that’s close. For diagnosis, there’s three essential traits you need to tick off, all of involve social struggle. The second section has four additional different traits, and you need to have at least two. Every trait can be held to varying degrees.
Instead of some people having ‘orange’ autism or ‘green’ autism, think of it like a colour wheel of saturation. Each autistic person has to have a certain number of colours, and some will be more saturated (ie stronger) than others. Which gives so many different combinations and possibilities for how autism can look.
I have autism, so I’m not the best at communicating, and certainly not good at metaphors. I tried my best to make this clear, sorry if it doesn’t come out that way.
Also, if you want to read the specific criteria for autism to be diagnosed, just Google ‘ASD DSM 5 criteria’. Hope this helps! :)
I love Burs immediate reaction complimenting the disorder while still being funny.
I can describe my Autism as - very crudely controlling a meatpuppet(my body) through leavers. With trapped very intense emotions you cant express. Aexithymia face deadpan stare people physically recoil at.
All your senses are turned up to 11 and they physically hurt. Its like having a siren to your ear while someone shines cringe lasers into your eyes and rubs hedgehogs into your chest. Eye contact is like cringe neutron star blasting into your soul.
"Autistic superpower" comes from very strict very repetitive routine management. You can master anything through incorporating skills in this routine due to our repetative nature and more mirror neurons. Most NT people cant do that. But this skill mastery comes at a very heavy price of lack of social skills and norms and lack of emotional expression in your face and monotone voice. So its very hard to integrate into society.
new testament people
Dude… You did it, you described it. My life has improved this day lol
Every comment I read from an autistic perspective triggers a realization about another piece of something from my formative years, although often unrelated. The "meatpuppet" comment reminded me how everyone else seemed have this fully formed sense of self and their place in the world and what they're supposed to do. I would look in the mirror and think "WTF is that? Is that me? That's what others see, when I'm trying to express myself? It doesn't feel like the 'me' I know." Just... totally surreal. Like I'm a half-written character in a first-draft novel.
@@Cat-o-mancer You can think about it like this. Lets imagine that people have two brains, rational and social one. I think all our senses are heightened and our social brain is wired closer to feelings center. Its overwhelms much easier thus autistics suppress social brain. This supression makes you awkward and lacking social skills and disrespect hierarchy .Your social brain is suppressed leading to alexthymia face, leading to further spiraling isolation. Everyone else social brain is okay and they have social advantage/experience over you. So you end up with rational brain, no social life, emotionally awkward and depressed.
So... think about your social brain as a pet that needs walks, hierarchy or social status/role, socializing in moderating to escape spiraling conditions mentioned above. But be aware that our social battery is very quick to charge, but doesn't warn you when its empty. Hope it helps!
Well that really cleared things up!

Explaining it to neural typical people, I say "Everyone has their own experience and I may be way off for some but this might help a little. You have PCs and Macs.

I have two boys on the Autism spectrum. High IQ, good at math and computer programming. Sensitive and slow to pick up social cues. It's a super power, linked to a dozen minor deficits.
Was it blatantly obvious to you as a parent in both of them? Essentially I'm wondering if a narcissistic self centered couple of parents could miss it? *asking for a friend lol.
@@adamfrbs9259 Nope. Not obvious. We had a preschool teacher say "he processes differently." I replied that we ALL process differently. Then we got him checked out. It came as a tough blow. But we love him now, just the way he is. The second boy we were watching for it.
@freesk8 ah ok. Well at least you were attentive enough to catch it.
I didn't have kids, but I did get a monster of a dog, a Presa Canario, that lived his entire life with me until 4 months ago. Can't pick what they struggle with, but I did the best I could, he never harmed a fly, loved kids and people and was insanely loyal and fierce protecting me. Wouldn't have changed a thing, despite alot of difficulty in some areas with him.
Cut both of them loose in a music store and see what instrument they go after, music is good for everything in my opinion.
😉
@@adamfrbs9259 Both play piano, and one also plays classical bass. Yep, music is magic. :)
@freesk8 nice, my sister went as far as you can possibly go with the piano before becoming a professional, scholarships and all. Then walked away from it 1st semester. I've been forced to listen to thousands of hours of piano practice growing up lol. Forced lessons for piano for me was annoying though, drums and guitar I got to choose at least. Now I'm at the age most say "learn an instrument", but I already have lol.
I've went down the looper rabbit hole this week. Cut em loose on a Boss 505 MkII looper with a keyboard or piano. That would kill endless hours of time if they get really into it.
For many mental health disorders (autism, bipolar, sociopathy, anxiety, etc.), there's not necessarily anything "wrong" with the person
It just means that they're wired differently enough from most other people, that:
A) It might cause significant social friction; and
B) It's conversationally and medically convenient to have a name for those differences
The issue I find with it is that you could diagnose literally anybody with a mental disorder.. so unless you're noticeably mentally handicapped then what's the problem? I don't understand the benefit of a diagnosis beyond it making you feel like you're not responsible for how you act.
To be diagnosed with a mental healthy disorder it has to be causing distress and affect the functioning of an individuals life. That can include an individuals social life. But not just that alone. A lot of disorders cause psychological stress which then effects a persons physiology. For example, people with OCD have lower average lifespans. Possibly due to the stress of having obsessive thoughts. So I disagree, there is something “wrong” with a lot of disorders. However, I understand how someone can say autism is not dis functional just because those who are diagnosed don’t usually conform to social norms.
@@Justcarlosdiazknowing what’s the cause of certain emotions and behaviors can help with knowing how to combat them effectively
@@M1GYT also it might be kind of dumb and unfair but there is the whole societal aspect of "is this person just lazy/stupid/rude or do they have an actual problem that they can't help?"
in a fairer world perhaps "being a lazy stupid jerk" would itself be treated like a "real" problem that needs patience and understanding - after all, in a lot of cases, it is a serious hindrance for that person's long-term happiness just like autism or OCD or BPD - but the fact is there's just no agreed upon criteria for being one. maybe someday.
Autism is not a mental health disorder although it often becomes comorbid with mental health disorders. it’s a neurological disorder
"Like, how metal are you?"
That was great
When expressed monotone or indifference is seen as lack of care, or tonal change seen as negative or aggressive. To a person like me who is Autistic, “x topic” does not need emotional response always. Especially with neutral concepts like eating food. Does it taste good, does it seem nice, do you enjoy? Yes. I have no other need to express myself now I will eat.
The worst is when interpreting logic faster than the speaking party. I will sit through your monologue now after you have steer extracurricular phrases into your speech after I have already responded or asked an acknowledgment question after your points presented. Repetition is common in all speech formats regardless of language and the hypocritical use of it against when I speak (especially to my family) is discourtesy.

What sort of symptoms bring adults in to test for autism that they didn't have or notice in childhood?
Sometimes I feel like my family already knows I have autism and have kept it from me.
Social difficulties often, and you'll only notice that when you leave school, live on your own, and need to get a job and be the adult. Building relationships, career.. Etcdtera.
As a kid you learnt to cope and mask to handle life and seem normal (more or less) but when you are an adult, there are different expectations set on you - and autistic people struggle with the social part although they do their best to act normally, it is stressful to deal with regular stuff.
Some people will have learned to deal with it and become successful, the ones who are struggling might eventually come to learn why and how, and that is great.

We were so close to getting an explanation of what the spectrum is
bills out here playing temporal chess and we all playing checkers
I think the problem with mental issues is that people think it follows the same rules as other medical issues. You dont have an autistic virus or gland. Most mental issues are personality or intellectual traits, and how many of them you have and how severe they are determines how far on the spectrum. I have ADHD, but i have no hyperactivity, I have extreme issues with attention deficit and even that is misleading. I notice a million details but I cant keep my attention on any one item. So while I have a pretty bad case of ADHD i dont have half the traits and express the other half in a more uncommon way, but I am considered to have a pretty bad case. Autism is a huge range of traits and is a less of a single type of person and more of a huge pool of traits that dont really fit any where else.
I once talked to a psychologist/psychiatrist and I said I didn't think I was on the spectrum because that's something you're born with and she was like "I don't agree." Now I wish I'd kept at them like "Well, at what point would I have gotten off of the spectrum onto the spectrum? Did my parents drop me as a baby or buy the cheap baby food?"
I love the intro to these videos. All those different bill burrs.
Autism is damage to the brain that affects regulation of dopamine. Which is why sufferers have problems controlling emotions. Dopamine regulation is essential in maintaining focus and is why autism is seen as a cognitive development issue and usually discovered while kids are at school. The severity of the condition varies as does how it manifests.
Quintet threat is an amazing line
I can’t actually follow this at all but it’s comfy to listen to lol
gotta be able to assemble a full tism meal deal from your traits
The silences were hilarious.
Timing, they say.
Siete for five is just fuckin hillarious 🤣🤣🤣
The spectrum is severity as well. Some people are completely crippled by their autism and can't hold a job or have any semblance of a normal life. On the most extreme end, people are non-verbal and can't even use the toilet on their own, etc.
I actually wish I was autistic. Unfortunately, I'm just disabled. A lot. And those disabilities translate into autism-like idiosyncrasies which can not be fixed. I simply AM the way I AM. Now I've ironed out most of my major personality flaws from when I was an abused child but the physical stuff? That's forever.
You can't fix autism, autism is a developmental issue of your brain. You shouldn't wish to have it.

My girlfriend has autism and I have to catch myself sometimes whenever she says anything autistic because my ADHD will derail me into a bad mood lolol
My son is on the spectrum, and I often describe how it might look to someone whose non-autistic as being like a grand piano with random keys that are muted. So if a skilled pianist played a complex piece, almost no one would even notice there were any notes missing. But if someone were to play something simple with only 1 finger like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in an area of keys with 1 or more dead keys, it would be entirely obvious to everyone each time a note is missing.
I have no idea what this means. Either it's a terrible analogy, or I'm autistic too
@@lwo7736 someone high functioning has the tools to mask their deficits. Allowing them in this analogy to play a masterpiece on a piano by working around the deficit.
Someone less high functioning hasn't developed these skills and tools and thus can't "play" even something as basic as twinkle twinkle without the deficits being obvious.
What I got out of it.
@@lwo7736Or you just don't know what a piano is, which seems the most likely answer here.
That's a pretty esoteric answer, Derek, but I do not understand your analogy at all. Is the autistic person the pianist, the listener, the song, or the piano?
This example makes no f’in sense.
Never taken responsibilities LOL awesome line
Quintuple
"When you ask them what they mean, they get mad at you" is ironicly exactly how I would descibe neurotypicals. I am high functioning and for me interacting with another human being in person is about as uncomfortable to my brain as fishing a watch out of a pooped-in toilet with my bare hands. Also some sounds send me into a blind rage and when im paying attention to something my brain doesn't keep track of time at all.

I hope we do understand autism better in the future, but also umbrellas can be useful.
Nope.
Likely on the spectrum here but never heard it described like this
I've given up trying to understand autism. Every explanation I've read or heard just confuses me even more.
I genuinely want to understand it because I've often wondered if I have some degree of autism but I can never get a conclusive definition that doesn't also overlap with attributes and behaviors of non-autistic people.
@@eddiemalvin the truth is it doesn't matter. Your life wouldn't change if someone told you that you did have it. We're all fucked up to varying degrees, you just have to make the best of what you have and try not to fuck anyone over
@Justcarlosdiaz Well said! That's ultimately where I've landed on the topic. Whether I have it or not, I should still held to the same standard as everyone else so it really doesn't matter.
Most, if not all, autistic traits are normal for neurotypical people to have. It's the combination of having many of those traits, and the severity of those traits that makes it likely for someone to have autism.
@@JustcarlosdiazWrong. Extremely, painfully wrong.
I like how he didn't at all explain what autism is.
Thats okay though, most people that are doctors and other professionals diagnosing it also don't have a fking clue. Barely anyone does. I work with autistic people to help them be more self sufficient, and im not even allowed to talk about it at work. Its "results oriented" practice... we don't have a choice either, insurance would shut us down if we did real work and the entire medical industry depends on insurance, currently.
There are factors that people with autism have that those without don't, and its not just a grouping of different characteristics. There is a rewiring of the brain that is caused by massive inflammatory processes or something else that damages the nervous system. Thats the short version. This is represented in ways such as increased sensitivities, hyper-fixations (because the brain is coping with the impaired functioning), difficulty understanding how others think, ect. The massive chronic inflammation is one of the biggest corollaries.
As an audhd person, i have no idea what was going on here at all
MooSAD 😂

The problem with modern affirmative social workers is someone like me for example could be easily convinced and watch a podcast about it and say "yeah, I'm 6 or 7 of those things" then you go to a docter and say "yeah im 6 or 7 of those things" and they can't disagree with you or they'll get put in jail so they go "yeah your 6 or 7 of those things" and Whammo, I'm autistic.
I've no idea if I'm autistic or not, but if you say your something these days everyone agrees with you so it's kinda fucking hard to figure this stuff out. It's like being asked to rate your pain on a scale of 1 - 10, for that to work you'd have to cause the pain first and tell me "thats a 7" so i have a frame of reference.
Not true though, at least in the UK. I thought I was autistic, as I relate with most of the criteria and several other people suggested it to me. Had discussion with medical professional and she said I definitely am not autistic. No suggestion of going to jail about it lol... (you were exaggerating for comic effect, right?).
Spot on
Huh...? My test took several hours. It's definitely over diagnosed, but Ive never heard of this, that's wild.
No idea what you're on about, Asmo you weirdo. It took me months of dialogue with a professional before I got my diagnosis, and I only got to talk with that professional after I got a referral from my doctor. Whatever you're on about, you need to broaden your pool of sources, bud.
Again, f*ck you.
