  • As some of you know, one of the ways that I discovered I was on the spectrum was from memes on Reddit. It's silly, I know, but relating to autistic experiences through memes helped me to feel validated and less alone. In this video I thought it would be fun to bring that experience full circle and react to a few of my favorite autism memes now that I've officially been diagnosed with autism. I hope that this video brings you the same validation and laughs that these memes brought me!

    I feel like I'm so shit at articulating my thoughts lol. Like I repeat myself 50 times and trail off and forgot what I'm saying mid-sentence. If I'm passionate about what I'm trying to say, I'll stammer and struggle to "spit it out."

    Also Autistic + ADHD 😁. Just had the thought that the reason why my brain 🧠 becomes very active when I try to sleep 🛌 might be because my mask is completely off and my mind experiences a lot of stimulation from being completely free. It’s a good thing, but the timing is unfortunate. Although I’ve improved at not putting on a mask, it’s still something I’m trying to work on, as I often put it on without realizing. I think many of you may be able to relate to this.

    And for that secret keeping I have a great joke.

    6:56 I cannot stop referring to our next-door neighbor as "Dave" even though his name is Brad. I do it EVERY time and I don't even know why. I do also have synesthisia... So maybe he just looks like a Dave and his parents gave him the wrong name 🤔

    #6 and #10 resonated the most with me. When I was a child I used to study people for clues on how to interact with them. I would intently study their faces to memorize expressions. I would listen to laughs and try to imitate them in the mirror. I even had a friend (lovingly he said) compare me to an Alien, although I believe that was due to my intolerance for cold temperatures (for me that is anything below 75 degrees Fahrenheit, I live in coastal U.S. state in the northeast so yeah....) For #10, that one is easy it is my mantra to my friends: TEXT ME do NOT call me. I have about a 50% success rate with that mantra.

    • @neurodivergentme
      @neurodivergentme  Před 3 lety +1

      I'm SO intolerant to cold temperatures! I currently live in PNW... the winters are mild compared to many other places but I just can't. I moved from the Bay Area and that was even too cold for me. 80 degrees is my sweet spot!

  • @dickottel
    @dickottel Před 2 lety +1

    for me it's remembering faces, I have to spend a lot of time looking at someone to recognize them in the street later 😭 I hate it. People must think I'm rude. Maybe I met my neighbour (an older lady) and didn't say anything to her, because I've only seen her for a few minutes total. It sucks.

    I feel like while im watching this video i have to pause it with every meme and write my thoughts because adhd brainXD.
    1: i always feel younger then i am and when people see me they always think im younger then my age. The last moment was about a year ago someone thought i was 17 and i was 27 at that momentXD
    2: i totaly agree that you have to be in the right creative mood. Atm i can't make any jewelry but im realy inspired to make plushy's. Also a reason why i don't take job's. I just freeze in the middle of them:/.
    3: i couldn't relate at first, then i remeberd i have had socks that do this and don't wear them anymore. Then i rememberd i mostly wear the same kind of sock i have been buying for years... The only thing i chance is that i make pairs of 1 white and 1 black sock. Don't let me get started about the maskingXD.
    4: yupe the song just started playingXD.
    5:... So that's not just because i can't comunicate well?
    6: yea.. im definetly not the same at work and i hide alot of my problems and the things that realy bother me.
    7: yupe space cadet reporting for apacing out duty:3
    8: it litterly takes me half a year to get names of new coworkers rightXD and even then i have trouble with it:p.
    9: definetly:p or all the mistakes/presieved mistakes i have made. Yea the midnight creativaty is anoying sometimes because i want to sleep but i need to write/draw something.
    10: yupe. I get realy nerves when i suddenly get a call .
    11: not sure if im called that but yea it just get's tucked away in a corner and some of them fall in to the garbage disposal at some point:p.
    ... What does it say about me that i relate to them allXD?
