Do you ever feel bad about needing help? Do you feel like a bother or annoyance? Do you ever loose confidence over not being able to these thing on you own? Maybe you did at one point but after so long you are ok with it?
I'm not officially diagnosed yet, but i think the most frustrating thing for me is my partner talks to me and i'm listening but when he asks me what he said i have no idea, i'm very easily distracted and happy to just stare out of a window
Oh interesting - well I have an autism life hacks ebook you can download for free here: mailchi.mp/theaspieworld/hack Thank you so much for the comment!
omg, organisation. especially my time keeping. i'm all over the place. those apps sound so useful, i'm definitely going to use those. thanks for another interesting video!
Wonderful to see all our beautiful faces watching? This is a very useful example of something that's not well-understood. The apparent overlap between narcissism and Asperger's clearly arises from becoming disingenuous having its roots in masking. We shouldn't think it's a coincidence that despite being way beyond masking, this comment obviously originates in asperger face blindness. I think gives some good insight into the composition of the dark empath personality. I'm aware this is probably unwelcome Aspie bluntness and that I can also be wrong. We need Aspie TH-camrs, and I'm just saying give a couple seconds thought to what kind of Aspie can do that. Just is what it is. The channel provides useful and, more importantly, ACCURATE content 👍
On Android devices, anytime you message someone and mention a date or key words like "tomorrow" or a time, it underlines the time and if you click it will set a reminder titled after whatever you were talking about.
I remember helping my Nana make my 2nd birthday cake. I got to choose the flavor and I chose chocolate and peanut butter and I stood on a chair next to her and got to help mix the peanut butter into the chocolate frosting and I remember the way it smelled and tasted, but if I switched my phone number, it would take me about a year to memorize it.
The video in a nutshell: have a partner/friend that does everything for you and actively makes an effort to help you deal. If you're lonely and isolated, sucks for you. /nohate I'm happy you have (and have had) a great support system in your life, and it's something I wish everyone had access to because there's nothing worst than being in this alone
I'm alone too. I understand what you're going through. But you're gifted; you'll understand. You can do things that most people dont, like Nietzsche or Van Gohg
My husband hides important paperwork from me so I don't lose them. His reasoning is valid (I just lost the Kids' birth certificates), but it doesn't feel so great. I am working to strengthen this aspect of my life. Thanks for the video!
Ah yes!! Haha team work makes dream work! Oh he may like this fee Autism life hacks ebook I have for download mailchi.mp/theaspieworld/hack Thank you so much for the comment! Make sure you are subscribed and have the notifications turned on :).
These videos are great! I am 100% convinced my 9yo son has Aspergers and dyslexia. Because of the Coronavirus and isolation I’m seeing more of it but also means I can’t get support or a diagnosis for him. Your videos are a great way for me to get inside his world - loads of lightbulb moments! 💡🤯🙏
Awe that is amazing I am so happy to help!! I have this ebook free download on life hacks for autism: mailchi.mp/theaspieworld/hack Thank you so much for the comment! Make sure you are subscribed and have the notifications turned on :).
Today was emotionally tough. I have autism/Asperger’s and find that texting is difficult for me when I do not understand the meaning or emotion behind the text. This is made more difficult when there are no emoticons. Since this is true for me it is often easier to video with someone so that I at least can have a better idea of how the conversation is going. Also, I recently started watching your videos and have learned a lot. I work as an education assistant in an elementary school. This year I work with two children on the autism spectrum. Over the years I have read a lot about autism/Asperger‘s. It is refreshing to further continue my learning through your videos. 👍🙂 Keep being awesome 🤩. Mary (Canada)
Hi. I’m feeling relieved. I took the first steps to get both of my children diagnostic evaluations for ASD. I made like 10 phone calls to resources recommended to schedule the appointment. Hopefully one of the places will return my call with availability soon.
Hi. I am feeling happy. Thanks to your videos (you tube recommendation thanks you tube! I wasn't even searching autism!) I'm realizing I have tons of symptoms of being on the spectrum (37 undiagnosed-probably apparent from what I've said so far) and your videos have helped me see myself through more loving eyes and understand that what I've been doing my whole life to keep myself calm and in high function mode is a great strategy! Stuff like having earbuds in even with no music if music itself becomes too much for me when going outside my house. Taking alone time when I get overwhelmed. Planning out my life with backup plans and even a plan of how to care for myself if all plans fail so I can manage to stress of things not going according to plan. And other stuff like this. Basically I had it pretty much figured out at one point but over time people who took my strategies, and also times strategies failed and my hard time affected them. People who took these things personally their comments resulted in me believing I wasn't nice or a good person but I am nice and a good person just with things that go on internally that require special solutions and I am so happy to be in this internal space right now! Thank you for saying I can have a conversation and please share! :)
Very good video on these subjects. I totally zone out all the time. I can't concentrate on anything. It even makes it very difficult to read, or to read my music. When I zone out I'm constantly daydreaming about anything. Omg, I couldn't organize an empty room. You're really lucky you have someone to help you with that. Memory is another bad problem I have. Unless it's a big event, I can't remember anything short term. However, I'm actually good at remembering like dates for doctor visits, or sometimes number dates of a big event. Notice I say big events, day to day stuff just goes. Since you play guitar here's a quote from an old jazz musician before our time. "I don't know what I just played, and I just played it." Don't ask me who said that I can't remember.
I recently realised that doing something with my hands really helps me to better focus on something like a university lecture. Like playing around with a pen, a deck of cards, whatever it is, but possibly something that doesn’t require any mental effort. Especially now with online lectures I really have issues with staying focused. It’s just way more exhausting for me and also I have so much stuff around me to lead my thoughts anywhere else than where they should be. After a while; especially when the lecture isn’t particularly interesting, I almost always zone out.
Thank you for these. My older daughter was diagnosed with Apergers three years ago and my younger just last week. These videos are very helpfull for me.
Thank you for this... I've been trying to explain to my loved ones what I need... for one I finally have a name to put with it (executive function).. and ways to help.. thank you
I feel tired/sleepy. (You asked how I feel.) It's 8:44pm and I have to stay up till midnight to get a delivery slot online for my groceries : ) During the pandemic I've had time to start to be able to identify my feelings, determine why I feel that way, and decide what I will do about it. Thanks for all your support.
sometimes... I get frustrated when people remind me of those things... like it just makes me feel like I'm so incapable of doing things on my own and it frustrates me.. so I end up shutting down
Trying to focus on chores is so freaking hard. Like, music can't keep me engaged mentally, but I watch videos and I zone in to those. This, still not helping me focus.
I feel happy. After having gone through the past few weeks of quarantining and social distancing and the emotions that came with it, I'm feel pretty stable for now.
Some excellent tips, I find I don't listen to people actively, I am already planning in my mind what to say next. Sometimes I switch off when listening to people especially if I am in a group.
Im 29 have Asperger's, hdhd and fasd, I don't take any medication I've just felt with all this. Hartest for me is still going into work since it is so different now and my work is still doing curb side pick up. It's difficult because I don't have that same routine I had like before when I would come into work and It feels like I'm having to readjust and learn a new job so to speak. Love your videos they really help
Great video. I look forward to your fine motor skills video. I use a whiteboard, calendar and the calendar app on my phone to remind me to do things. In terms of organising, I have a very good filing system for document at home with different folders for mortgage, student loan, car, medical stuff etc.
4:12 No worries man, I do this a lot too. Especially when I fantasize about explaining something to someone and I just can't get to the point because all the small details on the way there are extremely important to explain in detail (it most likely isn't, but it feels like that to me).
I love your videos cause my granddaughter is 6 and has asperger's. You help me to Know how things go on in her head. I think this is how you spell organize.
I’m feeling extremely anxious at the moment as I’m going to a residential treatment place in 2 weeks and it’s all going to be very different and I’ve no idea how I’m going to cope. I’ve printed off your charts to take with me and pictures so I can stay on track but I don’t know what else I can do to prepare myself. I have Tiimo and love it :)
I have a problem paying attention if I'm asked to do many things, and I often have to ask again to make sure if I did what I was asked to do. But sometimes when my family thinks I'm not paying attention,(not looking at them, doing something else, ect.) They'll ask me if I'm paying attention and I'll repeat exactly what they said. Organization sucks also; i have a bunch of random papers and books on my desk...my aunt got me a small planner book so I can write down stuff to help me remember important dates for things that are coming up, though I seldom use it (plus my handwriting pretty much desecrates the paper) and half the time I can't even read what I've written down. To make it easier, I write in all caps.
So I've recently in the last few years come to the conclusion that I think I have aspergers. Its a very good explanation to a lot of things I deal with. I've always known I was a little different than others, that my thought processes and thinking and reactions and emotions are different than the average person. I've always said I'm an aquired taste and Aspergers is a very good explanation for it... I understand that treatments and symptoms can be very different between male and females... But are you aware of any treatments for aspergers or how it is treated in general? I intend to look into getting a legit diagnosis, but dont want to waste my time doing so if that is all I'll get; a diagnosis.
1:56 “autism is my super power!” I’m quoting from Kyle Hill (Because Science) But this is my mindset too. My problems with autism aren’t even with autism, it’s with the specific parts of society that feel like they are designed to make my life hell.
I am a mom of a teen with autism aspie traits. Thank you for your tips. I watch the videos, not sure how to introduce your videos to him. Any suggestions?
I have my own way of organization lol, it’s keeping things the way it is because I have autism and I don’t like change also I sometimes call my messes ‘organized mess’
I got 43 on the AQ test you recommended. My friend has ASD and said I have many traits so i came to your Chanel to find out more. What should I do now?
I have a three year old girl she’s very active and she’s really a sweetheart. The doctor has told us that she’s speech delayed. I’m not going to lie sometimes I wonder if she my be low on the spectrum. We were about to put her in preschool but the virus happened now we have to wait. I guess we have to wait and see. Any suggestions or advice helps. Thank you for all the information you give it really helps! Bless day to you
I’m doing so so miserablely currently, stuck in a house with a smoker and my dad doesn’t understand how bad it is for me and my brother here.. and he’s taking our guests life above his own daughter life.. and he said I have to move out of the house which I can drive and every but I’m slow..I’m not good at adult stuff I need someone there as a guide.. on my own id be lonely and need aid to understand how to do adult stuff.. Like paying bills and paying taxes. It’s just not fair because it’s not like I choose to have these breathing and health issues because of someone else’s bad habits. So now suddenly I’m told I have to leave everything I know behind and support myself without anywhere to go and no one to aid me. I’m breaking down while watching this video because it just hurts.. Mind you I can drive and such I can get away but to just suddenly leave? Plus my brother has autism confirmed and gets money from the government. We both play games together and hang out so if he’s stuck here too then what’s going to happen? He can’t get away unlike me. It’s just really horrible stuck situation and I’ve got no idea what to do... Smoking effects especially on people who have autism and hypersensitive to everything plus allergies. It’s no joke how bad it is...
I am not diagnosed but i pretty sure i am in the spectrum. And zooming out/in sounds so me. I was told in the past i was so really focus on the tv that i hear not if somebody talk to me. And still i got a short period of time i can listen to a story. If i am interrested in the subject become i will talk mostly to much and when it not bother me i will lost and hear them talk but not what they say or i move to my left leg to my right leg without nothis it on the first place. I am a woman btw of 23 and not that stereotype so its kinda new for me this subject. Your videos help me a lot btw.
Totally agree with everything you're saying I try to share all your videos with everybody I know so they can help understand myself and the community at Large and why we do some of the things we did luckily I have a very understanding wife and she helps with my communication needs keep it up Dan we're going to make it through this and I really enjoy how you're always positive and you always got your coming into your videos talk to me and then you really brighten my day sir so keep it up you making Humanity better one video at a time
I remember the outfit I wore on the 8th or October 2009 but i dont remember what my school assignment was 4 days ago and that was my last day of school so it should be easy to remember
Me: *gets focused on looking at something* ~ partner calling my name a few feet away ~ Me: *responds* Partner: finally, I’ve been calling you Me: At least I noticed the 2nd time :D Partner: that was the 4th time Me: oh 😂
Sorry I comment in a linear fashion, so hey you get multiple comments per vid.... lol you mentioned doing things in an ordered way.... as part of my job I have to complete a specific teaching online qualification (despite my bed HONS degree) and I keep telling the course lecturer to plead not deliver content in a disjointed out of order manner,...I can not do this grrrr I have to complete 4.1 before starting 5.4 for goodness sake it does not make sense to me...
Ok so i have severe adhd and ive been debating on getting an asd diagnosis becuz it seems im dealing with alot of symptoms related to asd but idk if i should or just dont do it in general i get anxiety just thinking about it
I was laying in bed with my (ex) bf and had gone quiet. He asked "do I dare ask what you are thinking about" "Interest and long term investment" I replied. ****ed if I knew how on to the topic in my own head, but it did not surprise him. -Aspie
I got ADHD wrong most my life until now I did resceach. Watch the great How to ADHD channel. That before ADHD was having to little attention. But it can be hyper focusing not scrifting your attention to something else. Which what I experience with Aspergers.
I had to wait until 2:52 to get to the actual content. It's one of the reasons why I don't watch your videos any more. If you want a heads-up on what makes a good video, head over to Dr. Berg's channel th-cam.com/users/drericberg123 I watch his videos because they are usually under five minutes and he keeps to the point. You could condense the content of your presentation into a five minute video if you did it properly.
It would be fantastic (and maybe even make TH-cam into a usable tool for the viewer) if people didn't use the first 3 minutes of their videos to waste peoples valuable time with pointless noise! TH-cam has enough cancer/timewasters (frequent ads, Chromecast issues, connection problems, UI quirks, etc.)! Be a part of the solution - not the problem!
everything just makes me angry. going from one meltdown to another is not doing me anything but damage and there are SOME PEOPLE who seem to do nothing else but RAISE MY HACKLES AND PUSH ME OVER

Do you ever feel bad about needing help? Do you feel like a bother or annoyance? Do you ever loose confidence over not being able to these thing on you own? Maybe you did at one point but after so long you are ok with it?
I'm not officially diagnosed yet, but i think the most frustrating thing for me is my partner talks to me and i'm listening but when he asks me what he said i have no idea, i'm very easily distracted and happy to just stare out of a window
Oh interesting - well I have an autism life hacks ebook you can download for free here: mailchi.mp/theaspieworld/hack Thank you so much for the comment!
@@TheAspieWorld thank you
This is so relatable
I don’t think I am autistic. However the description above describes me to the Tee
Wow since I commented i have been diagnosed with autism and adhd
Person: "Blah blah blah. What do you think?"
Me: "Uhm..."
Just answer "Stinky Yellow 33" and walk away. It freaks people out enough that they'll stop asking annoying questions.
Haha
🔥✌🏼
Almost zoned out tryna remember things while watching this lol
I’m 36 and was just diagnosed with Aspergers today, this vlog makes so much sense. Thank you!
omg, organisation. especially my time keeping. i'm all over the place. those apps sound so useful, i'm definitely going to use those. thanks for another interesting video!
Hey no problem at all!! I’m happy to help!! Oo also I have a free autism life hacks ebook you can download here: mailchi.mp/theaspieworld/hack
If I don't put things back where they go right after I'm done with it I won't be able to find it when I need it again!

I don't think you realise how much your posts help. Thank you.
Wonderful to see all our beautiful faces watching? This is a very useful example of something that's not well-understood. The apparent overlap between narcissism and Asperger's clearly arises from becoming disingenuous having its roots in masking. We shouldn't think it's a coincidence that despite being way beyond masking, this comment obviously originates in asperger face blindness. I think gives some good insight into the composition of the dark empath personality. I'm aware this is probably unwelcome Aspie bluntness and that I can also be wrong.

Just discovered your channel. I might cry. This is so helpful. Thank you. I literally love you
On Android devices, anytime you message someone and mention a date or key words like "tomorrow" or a time, it underlines the time and if you click it will set a reminder titled after whatever you were talking about.
I remember helping my Nana make my 2nd birthday cake. I got to choose the flavor and I chose chocolate and peanut butter and I stood on a chair next to her and got to help mix the peanut butter into the chocolate frosting and I remember the way it smelled and tasted, but if I switched my phone number, it would take me about a year to memorize it.
Dammit I relate to this so hard
I also have adhd, ocd and asd. This channel is so helpful. Thank you
omg.... your last one especially!!! I have little to no short term retention!! It's so bad it's comical!!! Even with lists, calendars and reminders.
The video in a nutshell: have a partner/friend that does everything for you and actively makes an effort to help you deal. If you're lonely and isolated, sucks for you. /nohate I'm happy you have (and have had) a great support system in your life, and it's something I wish everyone had access to because there's nothing worst than being in this alone

Can you do a video on how to deal with meltdowns for the person having one and the person persons who’s calming you.
My husband hides important paperwork from me so I don't lose them. His reasoning is valid (I just lost the Kids' birth certificates), but it doesn't feel so great. I am working to strengthen this aspect of my life. Thanks for the video!

Sandy Schuerman what a lovely thing to do !
That’s awesome I hope I am helping!!

Heyyy you stay safe!! Thank you so much for the comment! 💚 - also free autism life hacks ebook: mailchi.mp/theaspieworld/hack
Great video. I look forward to your fine motor skills video.
I use a whiteboard, calendar and the calendar app on my phone to remind me to do things. In terms of organising, I have a very good filing system for document at home with different folders for mortgage, student loan, car, medical stuff etc.
EXTREMELY helpful. Thank you, Dan!! 💜

I have a problem paying attention if I'm asked to do many things, and I often have to ask again to make sure if I did what I was asked to do.

This is so me. I start doing something and "ooo, shiney!" And before I know it, lost with about 17 tasks going on.
Hehehehe😊
So I've recently in the last few years come to the conclusion that I think I have aspergers. Its a very good explanation to a lot of things I deal with.

1:56 “autism is my super power!”
I’m quoting from Kyle Hill (Because Science)
But this is my mindset too.
My problems with autism aren’t even with autism, it’s with the specific parts of society that feel like they are designed to make my life hell.
I am a mom of a teen with autism aspie traits. Thank you for your tips. I watch the videos, not sure how to introduce your videos to him. Any suggestions?
That's why i watch videos on x1.5 speed because it's the only way to stay focused
I have my own way of organization lol, it’s keeping things the way it is because I have autism and I don’t like change also I sometimes call my messes ‘organized mess’
What if you don't have somebody. 😢😢😢😢
I got 43 on the AQ test you recommended. My friend has ASD and said I have many traits so i came to your Chanel to find out more. What should I do now?
I have a three year old girl she’s very active and she’s really a sweetheart. The doctor has told us that she’s speech delayed.

super usefull talk.cov3rs issues there is not much mention of else were :)
THANK YOU V MUCH
I just watched some of your first videos, you struggled to maintain eye contact with the camera, how did you get so confident?
I’m doing so so miserablely currently, stuck in a house with a smoker and my dad doesn’t understand how bad it is for me and my brother here.. and he’s taking our guests life above his own daughter life.. and he said I have to move out of the house which I can drive and every but I’m slow..I’m not good at adult stuff I need someone there as a guide.. on my own id be lonely and need aid to understand how to do adult stuff..
Like paying bills and paying taxes. It’s just not fair because it’s not like I choose to have these breathing and health issues because of someone else’s bad habits. So now suddenly I’m told I have to leave everything I know behind and support myself without anywhere to go and no one to aid me. I’m breaking down while watching this video because it just hurts..
Mind you I can drive and such I can get away but to just suddenly leave? Plus my brother has autism confirmed and gets money from the government. We both play games together and hang out so if he’s stuck here too then what’s going to happen? He can’t get away unlike me. It’s just really horrible stuck situation and I’ve got no idea what to do...
Smoking effects especially on people who have autism and hypersensitive to everything plus allergies. It’s no joke how bad it is...
There is a collage in the UK called BCA and it’s for people with autism… etc BCA is in Maidenhead,uk,
Scary that two of the three require a whole other person. What about those who are loners?
My poor hubby has such a hard time getting my attention lol, like a solid 2 minutes before I notice.
I am not diagnosed but i pretty sure i am in the spectrum. And zooming out/in sounds so me. I was told in the past i was so really focus on the tv that i hear not if somebody talk to me. And still i got a short period of time i can listen to a story. If i am interrested in the subject become i will talk mostly to much and when it not bother me i will lost and hear them talk but not what they say or i move to my left leg to my right leg without nothis it on the first place. I am a woman btw of 23 and not that stereotype so its kinda new for me this subject. Your videos help me a lot btw.
"just do it" - my nana
me: I wish I could, but I just CANT.
I have severe dyslexia ocd autism and some other thing and I cant read can you make a video on things that can help with dyslexia
Feeling a lot better now getting to see Dan the Man!

When I zone out but hear the magic words "Paying attention" which I've accidentally been trained to zone in for xD yep this video is me..
I remember the outfit I wore on the 8th or October 2009 but i dont remember what my school assignment was 4 days ago and that was my last day of school so it should be easy to remember
Me: *gets focused on looking at something*
~ partner calling my name a few feet away ~
Me: *responds*
Partner: finally, I’ve been calling you
Me: At least I noticed the 2nd time :D
Partner: that was the 4th time
Me: oh 😂
Had my official diagnosis last week . I am high functioning. Although it was over the phone . So couldn't observe me in person
Can't see the links to the apps mentioned
Sorry I comment in a linear fashion, so hey you get multiple comments per vid.... lol you mentioned doing things in an ordered way.... as part of my job I have to complete a specific teaching online qualification (despite my bed HONS degree) and I keep telling the course lecturer to plead not deliver content in a disjointed out of order manner,...I can not do this grrrr I have to complete 4.1 before starting 5.4 for goodness sake it does not make sense to me...

I had to hire someone to help me organize my house. I need to hire someone again to help me with another room.
Hey people. Now is the time for us to shine. I am laughing so much that norms are bored on their own. We are used to this.
Wow😊😊😊
I had to rewind it during your first point because ironically I wasn't paying attention. Oops. x_x
I was laying in bed with my (ex) bf and had gone quiet. He asked "do I dare ask what you are thinking about"
"Interest and long term investment" I replied.
****ed if I knew how on to the topic in my own head, but it did not surprise him. -Aspie
just diagnosed. Huh, this means i have dyslexia, asd, and burnside-butler syndrome too.
I got ADHD wrong most my life until now I did resceach.
Watch the great How to ADHD channel.
That before ADHD was having to little attention.
But it can be hyper focusing not scrifting your attention to something else.
Which what I experience with Aspergers.
Nice😊😊
In regards to attention I have to have two things going at the same time, otherwise I get bored.
There is no video
What?
@@TheAspieWorld there was no video just a static screen. But I heard you talking.
Fucking christ dude that shit took 3 min for you to finally talk about the topic. This is why I always turn on 2x speed.
I had to wait until 2:52 to get to the actual content. It's one of the reasons why I don't watch your videos any more. If you want a heads-up on what makes a good video, head over to Dr. Berg's channel th-cam.com/users/drericberg123 I watch his videos because they are usually under five minutes and he keeps to the point. You could condense the content of your presentation into a five minute video if you did it properly.
I can relate to having no fine motor skills
Anyone late to this .. Taskito. You're welcome.
It would be fantastic (and maybe even make TH-cam into a usable tool for the viewer) if people didn't use the first 3 minutes of their videos to waste peoples valuable time with pointless noise! TH-cam has enough cancer/timewasters (frequent ads, Chromecast issues, connection problems, UI quirks, etc.)! Be a part of the solution - not the problem!
Tip 1&2: depend on another person 🤦🏽♀️
Tennis? :)
everything just makes me angry. going from one meltdown to another is not doing me anything but damage and there are SOME PEOPLE who seem to do nothing else but RAISE MY HACKLES AND PUSH ME OVER
Wait I need that drink
❤❤❤
You didn't reply to my message on Facebook.
Oh, good yep And yep. And yep,
... Furbies?
My default response when someone calls my name while I'm zoned out:
"Huh?" "Yo?"
That’s how I remind myself on all these things too! Love my iPhone!
