I value your videos, you explain things soo clearly. Your work is valid and you are valid. Thanks Orion.😊
I am from the USA and my neurodivergent family loves sarcasm. My grandfather was the king of sarcasm.
I once did a stand up comedy routine for a program called Stand Up for Mental Health.
That's hilarious.... feels like an exam. Like a surprise quiz!! 😂😂
I'm a runner, I've ran marathons and I'd say running a marathon is not easy, requires a lot of training, but it's still easier than:
- Carefully listening when there are multiple conversations going on.
- Estimate on how much time has passed.
- Trying to talk when about to have a meltdown.
- Switching tasks rapidly, in a work environment.
Never thought I would enjoy verbal diarrhea. But here I am, at the end of the video with a smile on my face.
Good stuff!
What a great video today!! I relate to everything you are saying. It’s nice to hear that I’m not all alone in the world. I’ve always felt like an alien from outer space and that I just don’t understanding the world around me and it’s nice to hear somebody talk and say all these things that I’ve experienced throughout my whole life it just sucks that I’m 45 now finding that there’s others out there like me. Well I guess it’s better late than never. I’ll just take it as that instead of me just dwelling on it.
😂😂😂🤣🤣
Thank you, Orion. I had a good laugh. That made my day so much better ❤
Thank you for the information you share about your experiences being Autistic. One of my good friends disclosed that they are Autistic so I have been going online to understand the way he views the world and to communicate with them. It has helped me so much.
"I've never seen my balls bleed so much." 🤣
I think small talk is like stimming for neurodifficults. It's part of how they communicate, it's how they connect. They don't even realise it.
Catastrophising is my middle name. 🤣The two people I feel I communicate with clearly, and without effort, are my adult, neurodivergent children.
Nice Billy Joel "Piano Man" reference!
I feel this.. ty
You do make me laugh
Small talk 🤯 too much information ✅ bloody balls ✅ love sarcasm but take it personally when directed to me ✅ I've ticked half the boxes ... Thanks Orion your honesty and humour helps me feel less unusual
oh mate! definitely relate, catastrophizing everything, not feeling part of NT or ND communities, feeling like I'll never feel understood, people chewing me out for being late but never being punctual for me nor understanding why I'd be upset about it. life is fun! lol
I remember being 9yo taken to my grandfather’s house that was 3hrs away during the school holidays and was “left there to spend the week” with no prior notice, my poor grandfather that mind you I was lucky to see once every couple of years felt so bad after the massive meltdown drove me back the following day.
My little brother used to make jokes to make himself laugh all the time. That’s one of my favorite things about watching your content. Just feels home-y. ❤
26.2 mi! Don’t know the kilos exactly, but around ~~~40 km on my quick maths. Also for a standard marathon, the endless life marathon is incalculable.
It means a lot to me that you do this I hope you know it helps and is really apreciated. Im suffering discrimination and a lot of stuff from care workers family and others who refuse to even try to understand and I think Im bad and wrong and listen to your videos and it helps me realise I am not the problem. I try to get them to watch too and they refuse.
Now I know what to ask my aussie friends to get me from Australia!
Miscommunication is my life, I've come to accept it whenever I open my mouth, or even look at someone. I'm certain that it ultimately led to my divorce, led to having very few friends. Catastrophise, 100%. Doom and Gloom was my go to when I was a kid, as mentioned to me repetitively.
I relate so much with what you say! You had me laughing.🤣
Give me a witty and dry austistic dude any day. No NT guys!! 😂😂
1st like & comment, yay!!!😁
P.S. I really like the autism feels series, can't wait to watch!
11:52 this is my living hell. Every time! EVERY single time!!! Always my fault....because its my fault. Because interpreting your meaning not the literal definition is my responsibility
18:01 YES!!! WHY ARE YOU JUST STANDING THERE!?!?
You feel like you are being judged.
20:35 it's your first class and everyone else is aceing the final
22:37 the cake I ate vs I ate the cake
24:18 omg we both forgot to move the car for street sweeping and we got a parking ticket now were going to loose the car...
27:02 naw no way
28:20 yes! Being told about something abhorrent. Being disgusted being the ass for not being amused by the pain of others.
Catastrophying is so me I have to silence those thoughts all the time. It's like its a battle between well it can/has happened and the odds being so small.
References to Billy Joel AND Paw Patrol?! This is peak entertainment right here. (In all seriousness though, love you and everything you do Orion. Keep it up 💚)
Hey Orion, sorry I missed You👋
You are amazing and completely understandable. Omg, so relatable with communicating to others, thankyou for Your shares. I am the queen of the absolute worse case senerio!!
Catastrophizing is my middle name. I want to give one example because it’s important to me. After my diagnosis last year I really wanted to be part of the autistic community.
I started following a content creator (you) because I felt you gave me all the information I needed and liked the look/feel/style of your videos. So, after a few months I felt I wanted to comment on the content. To be part of a community there should be some interaction in my opinion. It was and still is challenging (does that sound weird?) What if people don’t get my jokes (sarcasm), offending anyone, sounding like an idiot. If I don’t get 👍 I know I messed up. I am petrified that I will alienate my new tribe. I’ve deleted so many comments.
So, that’s the first chapter of my book. 😊
Oh yes. Who needs to shower every day anyway. It’s not as if I socialise that ofen. I brush my teeth though. I’m not an animal! 😆
I don't think that you can ever have a relationship with no misunderstandings. Whether you are neurotypical or autistic. But I do believe that you can have relationships with fairly few misunderstandings.
Fantastic video man! Much appreciation.
Excellent, so relatable.
I forget how to walk if someone is watching me.
Bookmarking 37:00 for my husband 😂😂😂
And you hearted my comment just in time to remind me to queue this up for him before he goes to sleep. 😂
I don't feel like every conversation I have goes bad for me. I have worked a lot on social skills. I don't have the acting skills to mask much so I didn't fall into heavy masking. I think that there are social skills that don't include masking but it sounds like it is difficult to figure it out sometimes. What I am trying to say is that there are social skills that we can learn that can improve our interactions without using heavy masking.
i was able to mask (i dont know if only talking about basketball or golf is masking) but the october before covid i had some health problems so i couldn’t be around people and then after covid i was barely able to mask at all and now im getting an assessment for autism to go with my dyslexia and add. the weirdest part is my brother has all the “stereotypical” autistic traits and he just refuses to listen to me explain it. even with a mom with diagnosed ocd and an aunt that has a lot of autistic traits too. i think being able to mask is the reason im 27 and haven’t done anything but fail out of college so i would also want to know this but everything ive seen is: be confident and look people in the eye. stuff that i didnt even do when i masked because i physically couldn’t.
@@hgriff14 I failed out of college as well. I don't do eye contact. I look at their eyebrows. It fools them.
Oh wow, the being on time thing. And having an ADHD kid who experiences time completely differently. Disaster!
the only difference ive seen in british people and australian people is australians are americans with more british accents 😂
Small talk is like watching paint dry. Yawn!!
