In this video, we look at the signs of autism that might be missed or overlooked during childhood.

Everyone's Autistic these days!
zhlédnutí 101Před měsícem
In this video, I share my personal journey of being diagnosed with autism in my late twenties, a revelation that came after years of being told that girls couldn't have autism when I was younger. Growing up, I exhibited early signs that something was different, but these were often overlooked or misinterpreted due to prevailing gender stereotypes. This delayed my diagnosis and led to a long pat...
Thank you for the video. I am sending you 🥄🥄 "spoons" (from Spoon Theory in case you have not come across it).
I have heard of the spoon theory and find it does work quite well on a 'regular day' 😄
your channel is sooooo important! new subscriber!
@DaphneBargeman thank you so much Daphne!
You can also read Jessica McCabe - How to ADHD or Edward Hallowell - Driven to Distraction for information. I have read them both and I see myself so much in them
@tomasvoldrich I have heard of Jessica McCabe I think.. I will definitely look into them both, though - thank you!
I have enjoyed the episode,😀, also the bulbasaur t-shirt looks amazing 🥳 . (i hope i recognized it correctly 🧐)
@tomasvoldrich yes it is bulbasaur! 001 my favourite pokemon! Thank you for watching. I'm so glad you enjoyed it 😁
Those who are weird are those who choose not to understand and judge simply by what they see. Neurodivergent people are no less human, and we should love our fellow humans rather than hate them because they are not the same as them. If we were all perfect, we'd all be billionaires, working a 2 day week... if only!
@se9225 thank you for this lovely comment - if only the world could be so kind! ❤️
i am looking forward for the next episode. For sound issues I am hypersensitive + hyperacusis . For light issues : It is usually enough to look toward ground for me. For touch issues: I (not literally)jump several steps away from light touch. For food issues: All my teenage years I could not eat boiled potatoes and life-time enemy are mushrooms because of texture and weird smell. I cough from parfumes when it comes to olfactory/smell issues.
@tomasvoldrich thank you so much for sharing these, always really interesting to see what you have to say. 🫶🏻 And thank you for watching!
I use white noise generator to suppress the constant noise .. I live in a big and densely populated city and to be honest, I hate it.. Unfortunately with my engineering profession, I need industry to work and make money. If I can, would go to the quiet countryside for sure.
@Stefan_trekkie I am in the countryside in a little hamlet and it is very quiet bar some animal noises. I wonder if this makes it harder when having to enter into busier towns or cities? An interesting thought!
Interesting again. I absolutely hate to change my surroundings or to interact with new people. This is one of the reasons I hate to change jobs and remain too late on them even if other people will be long gone. I see myself in all of the points. p.s. Trike ? Have you looked at the reversed trikes scooters?.. Like Piaggio mp3 or similar from other brands
@Stefan_trekkie I think I've looked at all of them including someone local who converts bikes into trikes! I think I'm going to have to have a spin on a few to get a better idea what will work for me 😄
Interesting. I see a lot of myself in the video + I have the classic movie autistic tropes that I'm good at math and science .. Never cared to be tested, don't see the point of it.. Nobody cares anyway.
I think once education is over, there is definitely less of a "need" for diagnosis as there is no help for adults (not where I live anyway). However, it seems to be the case that it is much easier for your children to get diagnosis if the parent is diagnosed and it is really beneficial throughout school as they can apply for extra help etc to support the child. I also re entered education as an adult, and the difference in support is outstanding. People definitely care, though! If something is important to you then it is important 💕 if its not then that's cool too 😁
@@eyupnel Sorry for flooding your vids with comments. The ABR video popped out on my feed as a biker related. Did not know about the other content .. Usually don't talk about that kind of stuff.. Good luck with your knees on the upcoming surgery.
@@Stefan_trekkie no problem, always happy to chat! 😄
I had knee surgery 5 weeks ago and walked with crutches like you for 2 weeks.. I fall off with the bike on the January's black ice and nothing is helping me to recover. The feeling of helplessness is terrible .. To feel that you can do anything is so precious that you realize what is like after loosing it. Nice bikes, the scram 400 is a nice bike.
@Stefan_trekkie I hope you start to recover soon, sounds awful! 😔 I've been on my crutches for over a year now, and it is really hard! I get tired so quickly 😂 Surgery in a couple weeks for me!
Lovely vid :) I demo rode the white indian FTR, was fun! Glad you had a great event :D Roll on ABR 2025! (got my early ticket already!)
@stevesalldayventures nice! That did look amazing I went back for a look at that one a couple times 😂 what did you think of it out on the road? Yes - can't wait for next year!!
@@eyupnel It was pretty nice on the road, plenty grunt and sounded nice too!
It was a great weekend, I want to do it again. In fact I wish I just lived at the festival and it was on all year round 😂. Good to seeing you both there too 🙂
@@sniperon2wheels wouldn't that be something! 😂 yes, It was so lovely to actually meet you!
Really interesting thank you! ❤
Thank you for taking the time to watch 😄
@@eyupnel I met one of your lovely friends at a CZcams event recently and she shared your link, I’m enjoying your content ☺️ also, we chose the same thumbnail template for our videos 👍😂
@@jewelrescue so we did! what is it they say? "great minds think alike" 😂❤❤
@@eyupnel perhaps it should be neurodivergent minds think alike 😂😂
1:00 It can be an opinion because lots of research and articles are geared towards children. And I have my theory that your autistic traits in childhood do not disappear but they "evolve" into adult presentation and therefore people stop to see the known presentation and can think because of it that autism is only in children
6:20 I think that it stems from the thought that autistic traits are human traits. People that say this I think are not aware that they relate to you as human and not as autistic person. I think the "train of thought" goes like this: Oh, I am human too, I see this behaviour in myself too and if you are autistic therefore I am a little bit too. But they mix up being human and having autistic brain
This is a great way of explaining it!
it is though
Autism isn't any kind of illness. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurological and developmental disorder 😁 you can't cure or treat it in the same way you may be able to do with an "illness". I hope this helps!
@@eyupnel it is a mental illness that is a mental disorder. You can't cure depression or anxiety either. You can take medication to combat them but they require constant attention, some more than others, just like autism. "Mental illness" is the generic term for abnormalities in a person's mental behavior. They're all actually classified as disorders.
@@poetbrained9408some people can be cured of anxiety or depression. I myself have been. it CAN go away for plenty of people after a long time of treatment. autism can never be "cured". autism does have many aspects to it that negatively impact a persons life, but there are also positive ones. there are no positive aspects of mental illnesses (Eg. anxiety and depression). autism IS a mental disorder, but it is not an illness. how people can not fathom the difference is beyond me.
What helps me with sound hypersensitivity and hyperacusis is food supplement L-tryptophan. Yes, loud sounds are still loud but long exposure to them is not causing me sensory overload symptoms like going my skin pale, fast heartbeat, hot ears or irritability and overall feeling of "soon i will go crazy" . I use it twice a day. The first time i used it , it felt like magic.... not sure if it has universal effect for everyone but it is worth trying if you cannot work with headphones. 👍
Thats amazing! I will definitely have to do some research into this - thank you for sharing 💕
Your channel is a breath of fresh air. Thank you for sharing your story ❤
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch 💕

Have you ever had a problem with perceiving your voice volume ? In elementary school i though i speak loud enough and i was afraid to raise my voice to not to shout. And i was actually whispering and teacher did not understand me. Some time ago in my job i thought i speak at normal volume to shift manager to explain something in hurry but i was actually shouting at her 🤐.
Yes, I still struggle with this. Usually, far too quiet, my partner will often say I can't hear you or something to that effect 😂 I also struggle with too fast or slow. If I'm trying to get a lot of information out, I'll speak too fast and trip over my words. These videos have actually been quite helpful in that I get to hear how I sound. I'm perhaps a little slow in the videos, but it's a definite improvement 😁
When it comes to small talk i do not have problem with it when the second person leads the conversation and I am just adding my opinions or thoughts , but the longer we speak the more i start to monologue . I feel like "wow i can speak now" and i need the second person to stop me 😅.
That's very interesting! Is this the case with both friends and strangers?
@@eyupnel Just with friends or people i know for some time. With strangers i keep the conversation at minimum, just to exchange information needed.
Another good video, I would be interested to hear your thoughts about in a relationship, one has autism and one is ADHD.. that could be a coping mechanism video in its own 😅right
A fantastic idea! I touch a little bit on this subject in an upcoming video, but it would be so interesting to explore further ❤ thank you so much for watching!
Thank you for sharing your journey! Really enjoyed this video <3
Thank you for taking the time to watch! 🥰
Well done on your 1st video 👏 sorry to hear how long it took once you 1st spoke to Dr
Thank you! I have a bunch more ideas for videos, which I am excited to share 😁 Oh gosh, what a mess it was 🙈 hopfully someone who is also being messed around a bit might see this and see that there is an end in sight ☺️
Amazing how you tell your story, very entertaining while being super real, great video
Thank you for taking the time to watch! I really appreciate it 🥰
It is a nice video as a first one. I think that every personal experience can bring new relatable information about autism so I have subscribed and waiting with hope for your next videos. 👍
Thank you so much for your kind feedback 🥰 I have lots of stories to tell!
