- Hi lovely people!
A lot of us are confronted with "but you don't look autistic". This video is for you. And the people who think that this is something nice and are confused about the reaction. This isnot meant to attack you, it's to educate.

Relatable. People tend to have a lot of preconceived (and unfortunately often incorrect) notions pertaining to autism. I used to be guilty of that myself, despite also being autistic. In fact, I distinctly recall reading something about autism as a teenager and refusing to even entertain the possibility that I may be afflicted because I allowed myself to be swayed by negative opinions. I also held a lot of shame within due to all the things that most people tend to find so easy, such as vocalizing thoughts or articulating through text, and I know it might appear to the contrary whilst reading this, but this takes an obscene amount of effort on my part to do well and I often lack the ability to do so (took me longer than I care to admit to write this comment). I learnt to somewhat mask these deficiencies, but in the long run, I only hindered myself from receiving an earlier diagnosis and the much-needed support.
Great videos.
5:40 So you mean you are not perceived as autistic because of autistic masking ? 9:42 I think that the problem with "experts" is that they just study autism from books and from the outside of autistic people but the key thing to do is to talk to autistic people and check if the knowledge is right . 10:26 I think that the many "kinds" of autism are just collection of all the historical "discoverers" of autism and everyone of them wanted their own interpretation as diagnosis. I would say that autism spectrum means - spectrum of traits of autism, and each trait has its own intensity. 20:30 You wanted to tell that you experienced a sensory overload in shops ? 23:04 I think it can be expected that you are tired because autistic brain cannot "shield" itself from the sensory input as in neurotypicals and therefore it is overloaded and tired much sooner + the longer the too much of input lasts the worse it feels because autistic brain is not ignoring it as in neurotypicals. Thanks for authentic unedited video about autism
Interesting video. Initial judgments can be incorrect. Be Well.
God damn it, Kitty. You have to calm down!
I do jot look autistic is the story of my life!
