    Lol great to teach people that basically everybody with autism is like this. I think this is why most people think autism is only ever super severe

    That’s not what it’s like 😂 I mean it’s close the noticing everything at once yes I don’t have constant white noise but I’m guessing that’s dramatic effect it’s a feeling too like it is sensory overload it’s the anxiety though when it’s to much I don’t think you can simulate that.

  • @erinthepigeon904
    @erinthepigeon904 Před měsícem

    the way i could just watch this and stay chill cause its what i experience anyway (not the visual stuff necessarily but the sounds etc are very accurate) For example, one time I was in London with my mom and we were on the tower bridge and I got so overstimulated by all the people and unfamiliar sights and sounds etc. that I hyperventilated and had a meltdown like the boy in this video. It also happened to me a few other times when i was in public, so I bought these noise cancelling headphones and Ive been a LOT less stressed especially in public

    Kind of curious what non autistic version of same thing is? For contrast. Cos I want to assess if I'm making it up or not. I mean I feel like that is reality I just block out everything except bit in front to manage it. But could be in head. So contrast would be good so can compare which is closer to how seems to me.

    • @Jessica18010
      @Jessica18010 Před 5 dny

      No, it’s a disability. Saying that it’s a “special disability” is pretty stupid and not factual. How’s is a special ability? Don’t those normally make life easier? I don’t think autism does that.

    This is relatable to an extent. My ears aren’t as sensitive but decently close. I don’t get overstimulated often. The lighting basically looks the same (especially on bad sensory days).

  • @micky390
    @micky390 Před 7 měsíci

    I get this after about 10+ minutes being in a shopping centre/mall. Feel overstimulated the whole time, I have anxiety as well but i don’t get anxiety when I go shopping. I feel overstimulated, almost feeling drowsy, and then need to rest after I go home. But I don’t have autism or anything else ? Can neurotypical people get this too?

    • @micky390
      @micky390 Před 7 měsíci

      Meaning I generally have anxiety but not in shopping centres so the symptoms are not related to that

    This is actually accurate because when I am in a loud or over stimulating place I CANNOT STAND IT ALL, that is why I always pack some sensory items for stimming purposes, if I Didn't however have them in my possession I would have a sensory meltdown. Anyways I hope everybody is having a safe day and keeping bright minds and souls!
