I am autistic and I went through awful times in school, not because I am of low intellect but because I am articulate and used words and terms far in advance of most of my classmates. I was bullied constantly, the teachers seemed to be disappointed that I couldn't take it and made me feel ashamed of myself. Six years later I enrolled in some part time college courses, and it was the making of me. I managed to make lots of friends thanks to my sense of humour and high grades. It was everything high school should have been but wasn't. In school I had no interest in much of the curriculum, I spent my days looking out of the window wishing I was free of the place.
@@thebaconplays5305 because people treat you like an outcast I'm autistic too and look where I'm trying to pursue I'm trying to become a musician the reason why it's hard to make friends when you're autistic is because people look at you weird people treat you like an outcast like hey this guy is weird don't hang out with him and I don't think that's fair to the person who has autism I'm not saying it's a bad disorder it's a good disorder because people with autism can learn faster but it's hard to comprehend certain things and it sucks because when you have this disability people treat you like you're stupid like you won't get nowhere in life and I hate that when I hear someone say that it really pisses me off
I’m diagnosed with autism and I just wish more people viewed us as “normal”. Everyone has has been want everyone who wanted. I love you guys. I love all so of you’s.
I’m high functioning autistic. I act mostly normal in how I interact and interpret what’s going on. I’m off when it comes to facial expression but do emote just not as much as most people would. I sometimes misinterpret or get confused by rare phrases or rhetorical sarcastic questions but with kids and adults like these people in this video it can be hard for me to understand what they’re trying to tell me. Some of what the man with Michael comes across like to me is that he’s trying not to falter and phrase his question about “a man” as “what man, where do you mean this man in relation to our day and immediate conversation”. It’s good just to me seems off because of the challenges autistic people can depict unintentionally.
@Noor jahan Jahan do your best to believe in your son’s health and future. Remain calm, don’t let yourself get swept up in excessive emotions I have been 90% better at controlling my emotions to make sure they don’t cloud my mood, my body’s comfortability, my heart for those I love respect and admire for their similar strengthening emotionally, getting less physical about resolving problems just being kinder to others and being less judgmental in a moralistic worldview.
Whoever told you that is a liar! I'm sick of autistic people whining about not being treated right. Autistic people have don't have the synapsis in their brains to develop correct amounts of neurons to function properly! Autism is a genetic defect problem. You need to do more research before you whine about being mental.
I am a 62-year-old I was never diagnosed with autism I lived with Asperger's all my life knew that I was different than everybody else but there was nobody that understood. I appreciate everything that you are sharing on these TH-cam videos. My desire is to be able to share my lifetime experiences to help others. I also have the desire to help parents know their children are autistic at a very young age so they can help them in better ways.
This would have helped me when I was younger. The grade school that I went to did nothing but criticized me. My nephew experienced the same thing, probably because it was the same school. He’s in a different school and doing much better. I want him to be happy and to feel normal. I’m happy to see this staff encouraging and supporting these kids. They should know that they are capable of anything. The worst thing someone could do is to put them down
I got autism, but that intro looked like a hellscape for me... all that movement with a bunch of people just brings me back to when I was little and hated dancing with the class
I’m autistic and I am a girl and I’m 11 and I find it hard to cope in public situations and my autism has made me have major anxiety so I find it really hard to go into school and I am currently homeschooling because of it hopefully soon I find a school and I wish that everyone would stop starting at me in public just because I am acting a bit different and us autistic people the reason we act a bit different and have meltdowns is because our brain is different normal peoples brains are just all normal but autistic peoples brains are all over the place like a big road that keeps having traffic jams witch is the meltdowns and sometimes it like a log stops the road and then we will gradually calm down and the log will be moved out the way back to normal so I hoped that helped for people that don’t understand
Hello, i am a design student and im in my final year and im doing my thesis on autism like i want to design something that can help all the austism people and spread awareness too all other people to act normal not to be harsh and rude with autistic people just understand them, i haven't think about the execution of my topic for now im on research phase so if you're ok and comfortable can u tell me about how you feel and what type of problems you face and you really want a easy way out that can help you ? I just want to design something that can help autistic people ❤🌹
Thank you for this. As with the other comments on here: we're not trying to be difficult, we're not trying to be mean...we're trying to fit in with you and, for someone like me, it's difficult for us to "fit in." I wish there were more services like this: understanding people.
The worst part about autism is that people who think they are "helping" are NOT, by talking down to autistics and treating as simpletons. Many have genius level IQ's.
They do whatever they can, including use of totalitarianism, to keep people branded with autism BELOW those not branded, and as well keep the concept of autism alive and thriving in a world where objective science constantly threatens its existence.
I hate being autistic im always labelled as special needs and cant go in a collage what i want go i have the grades for it its just we are labelled and annoying i have passed my arts but still cant get in a collage with it
As well as that, when support workers talk about the person in front of them and when challenged say things like "I don't think he/she has the cognitive ability to understand what we're talking about"...that REALLY annoys me!!!
I am autistic as an adult. Never got any help. Even when I seeked professional help the doors were usually closed. I just get yelled at, at work, drink a lot and work out. Sucicidal most of my life and people just say deal with it. 🤷. The only reason I didn't take my life is because of my family. Just can't wait to leave. Peace.
You are an absolutely perfect, amazing person! Please, please don't ever hurt youself! I promise, I care. I am a mom with a son who has autism and I wish I knew you. I would have taken you in as a family member, even on vacations! From a mom, to a stranger online, please know that you are loved.
@@JustinGarfield1 you're most welcome! I am also so proud of how intelligent you are and how beautifully you write! My son is currently very minimally verbal, but i hope he can talk like you one day! You are an inspiration to all parents who have children with autism!
I always knew I was “different”- treated differently by others or not treated at all. It wasn’t until about 4 years ago I discovered I had been officially diagnosed with Autism as a kid, but the information was withheld (I’m almost 60!)! However, knowing that I am an Autistic, while I now understand why I’m treated differently, it doesn’t make things better for me- I’m still “different” or “less than”! I would do anything to be normal!
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely
I'm high functioning autistic. This video covers a lot of the struggles that we go through. It's good to see think tank put a video up like this to help others understand our struggles. -Eric Wilson Broomall, PA
I just started playing Dungeons and Dragons with one of my autistic sons. My other son is not ready yet, I will have to get him into it slowly. It’ll be fun, once I can get them both going.
@@shawnandmattfilms410 yea we play one the weekends, it’s more hack and slash than storytelling but they love it. We still need more practice. Eventually I want to DM a game for autistic teens or adults but I’m not ready yet.
Most people without autism do not know what they really want to do in life in any case. Just focus on all your special interests, enjoy them & excel in them with practice, diligence & perseverance. Then some work/training opportunity will come along... Get a college mentor or job coach if you are in UK (and you are already 18) to advise you. Sometimes a job mentor/coach without SEND experience will be better because Mencap job coaches often have too low expectations.
Having autism is the worst part of your life, but don't let it control you, you have to fight against it! I know this because I have autism myself, and I always fight against it! And if you know what you actually want to do in life like something that keeps you motivated, it's never too late to start!
I wonder what perception of the world looks like for them? I wonder if it feels real, fake or strange. There's the ones that smile and the ones who are lost inside the mind.
Most autistic people are somewhere between the ‘smilers’ and the ‘lost’ people (to use your descriptors). And many of us can seem like a ‘smiler’ in certain situations, while appearing to be withdrawn in others. In the autism community we have a saying; “If you’ve met someone with autism, you have met one person with autism”. 4/4 people in my household are autistic: I am a parent and an allied health professional and I have higher degrees in Education. My young adult children all have high to very high needs, and all need support workers to varying degrees to negotiate their daily lives. As for how we perceive the world; many autistic people feel like they are “not normal”. Many autistic people have tried to fit into mainstream environments, but continually feel that they/we don’t really fit. Many autistic people find their local community to be sensorially overwhelming, and many try hard to deal with everyday life, schooling, working, such that when they/we get home its just too difficult to engage in anything more than alone time. Many autistic people see the world and social processes differently to what we have learned is a neurotypical perspective. But our differences in perceptions make autistic people valuable in the world of work, as we can often see shortcomings in decisions that many not be obvious to neurotypical people. But equally, many autistic people believe that everybody sees the world the same way they do. These people have difficulty with ‘theory of mind’, and often think that everyone knows what they are thinking; and thus the world can be frustrating when other people seem to be making stupid decisions. Ironically, these same autistic people don’t even consider that they don’t know what other people are thinking or feeling. So, yes, we experience the world differently than people who are not autistic, but each autistic person sees things individually too. Yes, there are patterns, but overall I think that there is more diversity within the ranks of autism than there is between neurotypical people in any given community.
What an odd question to ask us. We can't tell you what it feels like to be autistic, as we haven't tried anything else. Imagine if I asked you how it feels to not have autism. How would you answer that question?
@@spiralpython1989 thank you so much for the insight. I’m a 1:1 worker and I sometimes wonder about this, yet never ask. Some of my participants are non verbal, so some of their actions aren’t always transparent to anyone other themselves. Everyone has a unique perception of the world around them but with neurotypical givens and etiquettes that are almost always adhered to without question (queueing, road rules, greeting people etc...you name it) it’s always wonderful to see how a fresh pair of eyes interprets social constructs and situations.
@@spiralpython1989 "the world can be frustrating when other people seem to be making stupid decisions. Ironically, these same autistic people don’t even consider that they don’t know what other people are thinking or feeling." to quote you here.. I'm Autistic and literally never even considered this point until you said it ... I see people make stupid decisions every day... and never once thought about what are they feeling or what is going on that made them chose that decision? .. I also agree with your whole reply. You sum it up very well, way better then I could
i just watched a kdrama regarding an autistic attorney (extraordinary attorney woo) and now i'm willing to learn more on how to understand them, thank you for this vid
Autism is just another person to learn and understand From, different isnt always bad ..patience is key to anything ... you not special around them, They are!!!!
your a legend. I wish more people had that mind set.. I have tried so hard my entire life to understand other people, to understand communication and social keys... but with my autism and learning problems .. I just can't.. so I constantly fail at being a friend, and at socializing. I don't know where I go wrong or what I'm doing wrong, and no one has ever had the patience or ability / willingness to teach me and help me understand what I'm doing wrong or where I'm going wrong. so I'm stuck in a cycle of making friends, losing friends, trying to socialize and constantly failing at it :D
@@randomsmile9064 believe in what (you) see in the mirror..autism is a different type of intellect our inventors in history most dealt with things like that ..so the difference in you could be greatness...be you...)
I find it strange how they say the autism spectrum is so wide it includes people with learning disabilities to people who don't have any. Asperger's doesn't have a speech delay and has motor difficulties, but they class it all as the same thing
Asperger's people can have speech delay and motor difficulties sometimes. It's wide and deep. It must be very difficult to figure out what kind of care a child needs when you don't know what's going on in their heads, let alone how they will develop. There are kids who are completely non-verbal who have IQs well above average, and people who you would never realize were autistic until they got stressed out and suddenly lost the ability to move or speak. The distinction between Aspergers and autism isn't as clear cut as they thought, so they got rid of Aspergers from the DSM5
He said he wants to play football....let him play. Hes asking Michael too many questions and his tone is depressing. Ask him what he wants....hes clearyl bored. However great centre.
I think the support worker didn't have an issue with him playing football, I think it was more about teaching Michael that 1) change is part of life and 2) that choice is an important part of living independently...
@@elijahsvrbinge7166 For my opinion, I said this to the public that it's both a blessing and a curse. Again, it's my opinion. You may have different opinions of what you say.
I said this because I felt similar to both of you. I have autism and I felt the same thing of it because it can be a living hell. But for some reason in my thought, it's also a blessing because of how much things I have changed.
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely
Anyone can be autistic, autism is a very broad mind of mode or method of perceiving that is inborn and very different than most peoples. Here is a fact ~~> you can have a seriously affected Down's Syndrome child that is very aware socially compared to a savant highly adapted independent autist who does not have a clue socially so this special person is pure autistic and worth defining. Many of the young people in this video are mentally impaired severely needing help forever and they also have autism, but that does not define it ~~it does not!
5:12 onwards..... that's realy not a good example of having patience and understanding! I'd be pissed off too if I asked a question and someone just said "yeah, very good, let's move on"!
I'd really like to know after watching this video, how do you assess individuals according to the "autistic / learning difficulties" scale? I have family members, children of my friends and people I've dealt with in a professional capacity, either as a care-worker, dealing with young people 'with learning difficulties (dealing with a massive spectrum of behaviours).. to my current job.. encountering an individual with anti-social behaviour, targetting myself, and other female members of the public, while dealing with an inexperienced, juvenile, team captain attempting to mansplain me & tell me, I have to put up with it, while this particular individual bullies, beats up, rants at, uses violence and coercive behaviour towards myself, other members of the public, male and female, including spitting on cars and murdering pigeons... ? When do you stop & take account? These individuals in this video, seem exceptionally shy and incredibly peaceful, with learning difficulties, that's it. Why do some individuals & their defenders use the autistic label as an excuse to justify anti-social behaviour, inappropriate aggression and violence against others, whether, females, males, random members of the public, or innocent birds, or wildlife? Where do you draw the line? Thanks.. ! (Wondering whether or not to report my so-called team captain or leave my job due to inappropriate handling, dealing with an alcoholic guy assaulting random members of the public, claiming he's entitled because he's autistic, and the local team captain says.. "that's ok!"... ?????)..
I'm autistic with learning and behavioral problems my entire life. I've gone through very aggressive and violent phases. but to attack people?? kill animals?? that's not autistic at all.. that's something far more serious.. You should report your team captain and get this individual the proper support and help he / she needs... Autistic people are rarely ever violent.. The only way I can see an autistic person being violent is if they are stuck in a situation and can not escape.. Most autistic people avoid conflict at all costs.. attacking random people is the complete opposite of avoiding conflict.. The only times I Would be violent or aggressive towards another person is if its during an outburst due to a loss of control from built up stress / frustration. or if I'm stuck in a situation with no escape.
My mom blames my autism on why she doesn’t take care of me :/ she’s had many children and is regretting it then uses my autism as source to hate something about me without seeming bad 💀it sucks
So just a few questions that I wonder do people with acute autism... Have trouble understanding reality Have social anxiety Has a hard time making friends Slur speech Other wise normal but can't understand stuff that way other people do Can't comprehend what's funny and what's not Can't control facial expressions like there face kinda feels numb and when they are happy they forget to smile Have trouble with school Have trouble with particularly math Can't comprehend things Often feels dizzy for no reason Tend to repeat themselves
Hey bro I'm here for you I have autism too don't let people get you down my fiancé she supports me don't let people get you down you can do better trust me bro
My son now 20yo since he was 17 I never get enough support therefore He stop taking his education until now The college won't accept him because of safe guarding issue and the authority did not give the support either I feel like he's been punished for autism
To all who asked, inluding Fatty Foulkes, all whom you watched here in this you-tube video clip, all, have low functioning autism. For examples of high functioning autism, which used to be called Asperger’s Syndrome, see Chris Packham, here: www.chrispackham.co.uk and Daryl Hannah here: www.nowtolove.com.au/celebrity/celeb-news/daryl-hannah-my-battle-with-autism-9323 Both have high functioning autism diagnoses.
Daniel Read Have you considered home education? My autistic son absolutely loves home schooling. We go out 4-6 days a week on educational outings & he gets to do all the things he loves with people who have similar interests. As long as your English, Maths & Science are up to scratch, you can always return to school/college later, if you get bored but you never will. My son loves trains & has a train driving lesson with TfL on his birthday. He loves music, nature & active exercise so we go to workshops, recitals, Kew, gym, etc. He’s always on educational outings. He loves snooker so last week he was playing for 3 days away from home at a world disability tournament & as soon as that was over, he went with his carer, to perform a music gig in a care home in another town where we have friends. The opportunities to learn & meet massive, fun but scary challenges, to take you out of your comfort zone, to develop as a resilient & confident young adult are all there. He is so happy & generous that he even helps out in charity & community despite his autism & intellectual disability. Home education is person centred on you & your special interests alone but your parents have to be unitedly committed. It’s very hard work as you’ll be trained & you will learn way more than at school & HEd is definitely not for the uninitiated. There’s even a book on those who have gone before - those parents who chose to homeschool their autistic children & youths & all witnessed what a wonderfully refreshing & life-transforming experience it has been. I started homeschooling my autistic son from year 7. You get to meet all sorts of people of all ages outside your school bubble in your community at libraries, museums, galleries, gym, care homes, etc. My boy has met homeless people on the street, too. He will get an education from spending time IN COMMUNITY with real people (not just with the middle classes he meets in his church) in real situations informally, at the University of Life, but as I’ve indicated, your parents have to be willing, bold & committed.
Don't worry. Researchers are now using CRISPR to treat polygenic disorders in mize. Even google now works for autism research too. In Five years there could be huge changes in our knowledge and maybe some cures already.
case to case basis when dealing with person who has autism. and if you have autism don't ever think that all people will look down on you. i honestly don't and i'm not saying this just so i will sound nice i just REALLY don't. well of course as long as you're not a bad person just like any other regardless if they have autism or not.
The people in my life feel the need to remind me that I'm not a teenager, but it is the way they are nasty towards me about it. That is WHY I'm still stuck in my twenties and thirties. Even after I move out of the Odeyemi household and won't have to continue living with my dad anymore, I will end up looking back on this time with bitterness and will end up becoming even more severely depressed than I already am at the moment. I will end up developing severe mental health issues later on in life.
You mention to the National Autistic Society Helpline staff that your parents seem to constantly snap at you for every single issue because of being on the autism spectrum, that doesn't mean you should take out your severe depression on others!! You are not living with your parents or any of your other family members anymore, you need to find a way to let go of the past and grow up!! No wonder so many people choose not to have children, I don’t blame them for not wanting children!!
My son also has pervasive developmental disorder, he also has dyslexia, adhd, and autism. I take care of him 24/7 but during the week he goes to an adult day program.
Poor Michael. You should give him the opportunity to talk. Teach him to talk through using the rapid promting movement model. Give him the opportunity to stopped being licked in his body.
Always remember we must repent of our sins (sin is transgression The Law Of Yahuah The Father in Heaven. The Law are The Books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy). We must repent of our sins and Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that we can be forgiven of our sins! Come to HIM🙂🙂
My autistic is not very bad as hes i do have certain things that i have difficulty not understanding things from questions and hard being socially to poeple most of the time I mask my autistic emotions traits from poeple
I am happy that this world has literal gods that do their best to help such individuals to get past the least possible this horrible mental illness. Thank you
this hurts me to watch at points. they know what gloves are. they are not an infant. don't say you have to talk in "simple" sentences. I would say you have to be more direct and have clear instructions. Neurotypical people do alot of vague points trying to communicate their intent and like to beat around the bush. Why is it so hard to just state your intent clearly?
You are ' normal ' . There begs a question what is normal? I see most people with different behaviours. My neighbours. People you meet even In a supermarket. I met this lady today in a supermarket who was apparently 'normal'. She gave the shop assistant such a hard time. The young woman ended up in tears and had to leave the shop floor. You also have to ask is our prime minister ' normal' or just self centred. Just thoughts eh!
I think that every county or region in the UK should have its own dedicated Autism support centre, funded by the government. We can see now how many more people are becoming increasingly aware of Mental Health and this has been reflected by the fact that both the government and the Labour party have Ministerial departments that are set out to help in these areas. Of course I doubt very much will happen at the moment, not really under the Conservative party - they have never really been a friend of the NHS or particularly caring. Perhaps Sir Keir Starmer's party should they be fortunate enough to win the next General Election will be prepared to do more to help. At the moment in our area, apart from simply being diagnosed with Autism there's not really much in the way of services for adults. But there's an increasing number of young people who are Autistic.

they must have sinned a lot in their previous life to be born autistic in this life time. They're paying their debts to the universe by suffering in this life time. That is if you believe in this kind of stuff.
It's such a bizarre condition. You have people like those in the video and then those who communicate normally and hold good jobs and no one would suspect they had anything. The spectrum is insanely wide.
I don't understand what you mean. You can mask your autism, for example if you have been taught to expect pain or punishment if you "give in" to the feelings you have. So you bottle it all up until the cork flies off and then you have a meltdown. Do you háve autism or are you speculating or..what's up?@@orlaw.8213
Bitterness - Why It Is a Real Psychological Concern: I can’t see myself living till ninety let alone a hundred, in fact I can't see myself living till seventy or even sixty, because of having severe depression and other severe mental health issues, also because autistic people are far more likely to end up dying by suicide. I expect to die at the age of forty-something or fifty-something, although I am not trying to sound negative. It is best for me to simply live each day as though it is my last, regardless of whether or not it is the last time I will be on this earth. I am not able to feel grateful to still be alive, I find myself being bitter - I would prefer not to exist.
Bitterness - Why It Is a Real Psychological Concern: I won't hesitate to get you chucked out of this mental health clinic, because I'm not in the mood for jokes or any conversations!!

From now on I don’t want to give out my phone number to anybody anymore. I am not doing it to be nasty towards you or anything, I'll explain to you when we get back to the special needs accommodation.

I’m autistic and I am a girl and I’m 11 and I find it hard to cope in public situations and my autism has made me have major anxiety so I find it really hard to go into school and I am currently homeschooling because of it hopefully soon I find a school and I wish that everyone would stop starting at me in public just because I am acting a bit different and us autistic people the reason we act a bit different and have meltdowns is because our brain is different normal peoples brains are just all normal but autistic peoples brains are all over the place like a big road that keeps having traffic jams witch is the meltdowns and sometimes it like a log stops the road and then we will gradually calm down and the log will be moved out the way back to normal so I hoped that helped for people that don’t understand
Hello, i am a design student and im in my final year and im doing my thesis on autism like i want to design something that can help all the austism people and spread awareness too all other people to act normal not to be harsh and rude with autistic people just understand them, i haven't think about the execution of my topic for now im on research phase so if you're ok and comfortable can u tell me about how you feel and what type of problems you face and you really want a easy way out that can help you ? I just want to design something that can help autistic people ❤🌹
Thank you for this.
As with the other comments on here: we're not trying to be difficult, we're not trying to be mean...we're trying to fit in with you and, for someone like me, it's difficult for us to "fit in."
I wish there were more services like this: understanding people.
The worst part about autism is that people who think they are "helping" are NOT, by talking down to autistics and treating as simpletons. Many have genius level IQ's.
They do whatever they can, including use of totalitarianism, to keep people branded with autism BELOW those not branded, and as well keep the concept of autism alive and thriving in a world where objective science constantly threatens its existence.
I hate being autistic im always labelled as special needs and cant go in a collage what i want go i have the grades for it its just we are labelled and annoying i have passed my arts but still cant get in a collage with it
@Mr. Scuz just think its a bit unfair
As well as that, when support workers talk about the person in front of them and when challenged say things like "I don't think he/she has the cognitive ability to understand what we're talking about"...that REALLY annoys me!!!
@@iamthegame09 i understand
I am autistic as an adult. Never got any help. Even when I seeked professional help the doors were usually closed. I just get yelled at, at work, drink a lot and work out. Sucicidal most of my life and people just say deal with it. 🤷. The only reason I didn't take my life is because of my family. Just can't wait to leave. Peace.

@@JustinGarfield1 you're most welcome! I am also so proud of how intelligent you are and how beautifully you write! My son is currently very minimally verbal, but i hope he can talk like you one day! You are an inspiration to all parents who have children with autism!
I always knew I was “different”- treated differently by others or not treated at all. It wasn’t until about 4 years ago I discovered I had been officially diagnosed with Autism as a kid, but the information was withheld (I’m almost 60!)!
However, knowing that I am an Autistic, while I now understand why I’m treated differently, it doesn’t make things better for me- I’m still “different” or “less than”! I would do anything to be normal!
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely
As someone on the autism spectrum, every single day just gets more and more agonising for me!!

Can you get some kind of job?
Be happy ❤️
Most people without autism do not know what they really want to do in life in any case. Just focus on all your special interests, enjoy them & excel in them with practice, diligence & perseverance. Then some work/training opportunity will come along... Get a college mentor or job coach if you are in UK (and you are already 18) to advise you. Sometimes a job mentor/coach without SEND experience will be better because Mencap job coaches often have too low expectations.
No don't ever say that it's a part of you think about your skills
Having autism is the worst part of your life, but don't let it control you, you have to fight against it! I know this because I have autism myself, and I always fight against it! And if you know what you actually want to do in life like something that keeps you motivated, it's never too late to start!
I wonder what perception of the world looks like for them? I wonder if it feels real, fake or strange. There's the ones that smile and the ones who are lost inside the mind.
Most autistic people are somewhere between the ‘smilers’ and the ‘lost’ people (to use your descriptors). And many of us can seem like a ‘smiler’ in certain situations, while appearing to be withdrawn in others. In the autism community we have a saying; “If you’ve met someone with autism, you have met one person with autism”. 4/4 people in my household are autistic: I am a parent and an allied health professional and I have higher degrees in Education. My young adult children all have high to very high needs, and all need support workers to varying degrees to negotiate their daily lives.
As for how we perceive the world; many autistic people feel like they are “not normal”. Many autistic people have tried to fit into mainstream environments, but continually feel that they/we don’t really fit. Many autistic people find their local community to be sensorially overwhelming, and many try hard to deal with everyday life, schooling, working, such that when they/we get home its just too difficult to engage in anything more than alone time.
Many autistic people see the world and social processes differently to what we have learned is a neurotypical perspective. But our differences in perceptions make autistic people valuable in the world of work, as we can often see shortcomings in decisions that many not be obvious to neurotypical people. But equally, many autistic people believe that everybody sees the world the same way they do. These people have difficulty with ‘theory of mind’, and often think that everyone knows what they are thinking; and thus the world can be frustrating when other people seem to be making stupid decisions. Ironically, these same autistic people don’t even consider that they don’t know what other people are thinking or feeling.
So, yes, we experience the world differently than people who are not autistic, but each autistic person sees things individually too. Yes, there are patterns, but overall I think that there is more diversity within the ranks of autism than there is between neurotypical people in any given community.
What an odd question to ask us. We can't tell you what it feels like to be autistic, as we haven't tried anything else. Imagine if I asked you how it feels to not have autism. How would you answer that question?
@@spiralpython1989 thank you so much for the insight. I’m a 1:1 worker and I sometimes wonder about this, yet never ask. Some of my participants are non verbal, so some of their actions aren’t always transparent to anyone other themselves. Everyone has a unique perception of the world around them but with neurotypical givens and etiquettes that are almost always adhered to without question (queueing, road rules, greeting people etc...you name it) it’s always wonderful to see how a fresh pair of eyes interprets social constructs and situations.
Can't just stop referring to us as objects or a different species we are Human just like you
@@spiralpython1989 "the world can be frustrating when other people seem to be making stupid decisions.

your a legend. I wish more people had that mind set.. I have tried so hard my entire life to understand other people, to understand communication and social keys... but with my autism and learning problems .. I just can't.. so I constantly fail at being a friend, and at socializing. I don't know where I go wrong or what I'm doing wrong, and no one has ever had the patience or ability / willingness to teach me and help me understand what I'm doing wrong or where I'm going wrong. so I'm stuck in a cycle of making friends, losing friends, trying to socialize and constantly failing at it :D

i graduated from School to Translation Services. That makes me smarter than ever!
Great video. Helping out those with autism spectrum disorder.
why can’t we be accepted instead of having these so-called “professionals” shoved into our lives
I find it strange how they say the autism spectrum is so wide it includes people with learning disabilities to people who don't have any. Asperger's doesn't have a speech delay and has motor difficulties, but they class it all as the same thing
Asperger's people can have speech delay and motor difficulties sometimes. It's wide and deep. It must be very difficult to figure out what kind of care a child needs when you don't know what's going on in their heads, let alone how they will develop. There are kids who are completely non-verbal who have IQs well above average, and people who you would never realize were autistic until they got stressed out and suddenly lost the ability to move or speak.
The distinction between Aspergers and autism isn't as clear cut as they thought, so they got rid of Aspergers from the DSM5
In my country ..im not sure about the rest of the world..aspergers is not part of the spectrum anymore
The new dsm5
rachel panda what country are you from?
Aspergers is still part of the spectrum it's just not called that anymore. Now we are just called high functioning

Hes asking Michael too many questions and his tone is depressing. Ask him what he wants....hes clearyl bored.
However great centre.
Esther Meya exactly, unless he played with it for too long then other than that let him play
I think the support worker didn't have an issue with him playing football, I think it was more about teaching Michael that 1) change is part of life and 2) that choice is an important part of living independently...

I love helping people with autisms. I’m used to helping lots of people with disabilities.
It’s really sad to need help like that. Very nasty situation for them
Anyone can be autistic, autism is a very broad mind of mode or method of perceiving that is inborn and very different than most peoples. Here is a fact ~~> you can have a seriously affected Down's Syndrome child that is very aware socially compared to a savant highly adapted independent autist who does not have a clue socially so this special person is pure autistic and worth defining. Many of the young people in this video are mentally impaired severely needing help forever and they also have autism, but that does not define it ~~it does not!
@PRISTINE JOEL you’re nothing but bullshit, there’s no way you’re a real person

Epsom surrey is the one that was thinking about going back 3rd
I'd really like to know after watching this video, how do you assess individuals according to the "autistic / learning difficulties" scale? I have family members, children of my friends and people I've dealt with in a professional capacity, either as a care-worker, dealing with young people 'with learning difficulties (dealing with a massive spectrum of behaviours).. to my current job.. encountering an individual with anti-social behaviour, targetting myself, and other female members of the public, while dealing with an inexperienced, juvenile, team captain attempting to mansplain me & tell me, I have to put up with it, while this particular individual bullies, beats up, rants at, uses violence and coercive behaviour towards myself, other members of the public, male and female, including spitting on cars and murdering pigeons... ?
When do you stop & take account?
These individuals in this video, seem exceptionally shy and incredibly peaceful, with learning difficulties, that's it.
Why do some individuals & their defenders use the autistic label as an excuse to justify anti-social behaviour, inappropriate aggression and violence against others, whether, females, males, random members of the public, or innocent birds, or wildlife? Where do you draw the line?
Thanks.. !
(Wondering whether or not to report my so-called team captain or leave my job due to inappropriate handling, dealing with an alcoholic guy assaulting random members of the public, claiming he's entitled because he's autistic, and the local team captain says.. "that's ok!"... ?????)..
I'm autistic with learning and behavioral problems my entire life. I've gone through very aggressive and violent phases. but to attack people?? kill animals?? that's not autistic at all.. that's something far more serious.. You should report your team captain and get this individual the proper support and help he / she needs... Autistic people are rarely ever violent.. The only way I can see an autistic person being violent is if they are stuck in a situation and can not escape.. Most autistic people avoid conflict at all costs.. attacking random people is the complete opposite of avoiding conflict.. The only times I Would be violent or aggressive towards another person is if its during an outburst due to a loss of control from built up stress / frustration. or if I'm stuck in a situation with no escape.
What to do if a person with autism has a narsastisic parent?
child dies.
My mom blames my autism on why she doesn’t take care of me :/ she’s had many children and is regretting it then uses my autism as source to hate something about me without seeming bad 💀it sucks
So just a few questions that I wonder do people with acute autism...
Have trouble understanding reality
Have social anxiety
Has a hard time making friends
Slur speech
Other wise normal but can't understand stuff that way other people do
Can't comprehend what's funny and what's not
Can't control facial expressions like there face kinda feels numb and when they are happy they forget to smile
Have trouble with school
Have trouble with particularly math
Can't comprehend things
Often feels dizzy for no reason
Tend to repeat themselves

Daniel Read Have you considered home education? My autistic son absolutely loves home schooling. We go out 4-6 days a week on educational outings & he gets to do all the things he loves with people who have similar interests. As long as your English, Maths & Science are up to scratch, you can always return to school/college later, if you get bored but you never will. My son loves trains & has a train driving lesson with TfL on his birthday. He loves music, nature & active exercise so we go to workshops, recitals, Kew, gym, etc. He’s always on educational outings. He loves snooker so last week he was playing for 3 days away from home at a world disability tournament & as soon as that was over, he went with his carer, to perform a music gig in a care home in another town where we have friends. The opportunities to learn & meet massive, fun but scary challenges, to take you out of your comfort zone, to develop as a resilient & confident young adult are all there. He is so happy & generous that he even helps out in charity & community despite his autism & intellectual disability. Home education is person centred on you & your special interests alone but your parents have to be unitedly committed. It’s very hard work as you’ll be trained & you will learn way more than at school & HEd is definitely not for the uninitiated. There’s even a book on those who have gone before - those parents who chose to homeschool their autistic children & youths & all witnessed what a wonderfully refreshing & life-transforming experience it has been. I started homeschooling my autistic son from year 7. You get to meet all sorts of people of all ages outside your school bubble in your community at libraries, museums, galleries, gym, care homes, etc. My boy has met homeless people on the street, too. He will get an education from spending time IN COMMUNITY with real people (not just with the middle classes he meets in his church) in real situations informally, at the University of Life, but as I’ve indicated, your parents have to be willing, bold & committed.
Don't worry. Researchers are now using CRISPR to treat polygenic disorders in mize. Even google now works for autism research too. In Five years there could be huge changes in our knowledge and maybe some cures already.

case to case basis when dealing with person who has autism. and if you have autism don't ever think that all people will look down on you. i honestly don't and i'm not saying this just so i will sound nice i just REALLY don't. well of course as long as you're not a bad person just like any other regardless if they have autism or not.
The people in my life feel the need to remind me that I'm not a teenager, but it is the way they are nasty towards me about it. That is WHY I'm still stuck in my twenties and thirties.
Even after I move out of the Odeyemi household and won't have to continue living with my dad anymore, I will end up looking back on this time with bitterness and will end up becoming even more severely depressed than I already am at the moment. I will end up developing severe mental health issues later on in life.
Well there is no point in being bitter, because bitterness is not a positive mentality.
I have autism i would like to live in a home
You mention to the National Autistic Society Helpline staff that your parents seem to constantly snap at you for every single issue because of being on the autism spectrum, that doesn't mean you should take out your severe depression on others!! You are not living with your parents or any of your other family members anymore, you need to find a way to let go of the past and grow up!!
No wonder so many people choose not to have children, I don’t blame them for not wanting children!!

You are ' normal ' . There begs a question what is normal? I see most people with different behaviours. My neighbours. People you meet even In a supermarket. I met this lady today in a supermarket who was apparently 'normal'. She gave the shop assistant such a hard time. The young woman ended up in tears and had to leave the shop floor. You also have to ask is our prime minister ' normal' or just self centred.
Just thoughts eh!
Same
I think that every county or region in the UK should have its own dedicated Autism support centre, funded by the government.
We can see now how many more people are becoming increasingly aware of Mental Health and this has been reflected by the fact that both the government and the Labour party have Ministerial departments that are set out to help in these areas.
Of course I doubt very much will happen at the moment, not really under the Conservative party - they have never really been a friend of the NHS or particularly caring.
Perhaps Sir Keir Starmer's party should they be fortunate enough to win the next General Election will be prepared to do more to help.
At the moment in our area, apart from simply being diagnosed with Autism there's not really much in the way of services for adults. But there's an increasing number of young people who are Autistic.

Bitterness - Why It Is a Real Psychological Concern:
I can’t see myself living till ninety let alone a hundred, in fact I can't see myself living till seventy or even sixty, because of having severe depression and other severe mental health issues, also because autistic people are far more likely to end up dying by suicide. I expect to die at the age of forty-something or fifty-something, although I am not trying to sound negative. It is best for me to simply live each day as though it is my last, regardless of whether or not it is the last time I will be on this earth. I am not able to feel grateful to still be alive, I find myself being bitter - I would prefer not to exist.
