Moment of Silence

Great subject and this need to be part of orientation when applying to work with individuals with disabilities

Moura so good such good empathy with the clients

I listened and understand everything .

The point is to let people be who they are regardless of your opinion. If what they are doing and the consequences that can go along with it are not fully understood then intervention is a good idea . I know people who are perfectly sane they don’t look that way and it really sucks when every person who speaks with you speaks at you like you are five years old. Nobody including the people who are to help you should assume that you are not intelligent. I am intelligent in ways that boggles peoples minds plus I have excellent use of the English language when you’re talking to me . I am functionally illiterate . I am the exact definition of what is developmentally delayed . I have never read a book in my life. I am in the autistic spectrum . That means that in a quiet visually none active Environment you will probably not have much problem with me . The more visually mentally and auditory stimulating meaning sounds as in the number of sounds that can be heard. then the volume level of these sounds that can be heard Now how many visually stimulating activities are in my vision . The more stimulus visually auditorily and physical that includes light wind clothes rain smell any possible physical stimulus I can be exposed to. Plus intensity of stimulus . All of this will determine whether or not I am completely overwhelmed and stuck . I can not focus on you speaking to me I hear everything equally . To much everything is just white noise . You are two feet in front of me and you are just White noise . Too much visual stimulus around me I see everything equally I will reach critical mass . Meaning that I am overwhelmed and understand nothing. You are giving me verbal instructions I hear you I just do not know what you are telling me. The more frustrated you get with the bigger the problem becomes. You get angry things are much worse. Be a perceived physical threat I am only concentrating on fighting to the death. I will be making moves to safety do not pursue me . If I see a person that I know well I am going for them. I will put them between you and me . Bottom line is the more TVs I have turned on the more lost I get. Overwhelmed and stuck . I am a person with a severe disability whom was never properly diagnosed and or treated . The negative result Is you develop health issues that are a direct result of never being treated properly or diagnosed . It is three times harder for people like me then it is for the Normie’s who judge us with intensity and critical judgement. The Normie’s believe that you should be like them and they judge you Harshly for this reason. The if I can do it then so can you mentality. Why are you not like me not believing that I am thinking the exact same thing except I have no assumptions with you . I have been speaking with people who are mentally disabled and their family will walk away because nobody speaks with my child. When people are disabled and have a caregiver when I am speaking about them I am looking at them the entire time that I am speaking what is their deal and not the parents. I have had parents brake down in tears for no other reason then I am focused on their disabled child and not speaking at the parents and the child is just a peace of furniture. Speaking as if they are not even there. Nobody believes that I am disabled except that I am in a Weelchair . I have been speaking with people who are considered severely mentally disabled . They know without a doubt that I am one of them. Their parents will have tears running down their face because their child would never speak to a stranger never mind have a Conversation .

Interesting point of view. Professor X here. Stay safe.
