I have this issue myself with fire alarms. In work for fire alarm testing and drills, I am pre warned so I am allowed to leave the building. The problem is when an unexpected alarm activation happens it messes me up for the day and I usually end up having to go home to calm myself and get my mind back. Sounds stupid but it does affect me in such a way.

I am not diagnosed, but I always was sensitive to clock ticking so for the past 20 years I use earplugs to sleep.

School was a nightmare for me. Especially school breaks and trips where I had to deal with this terrible noise my peers made. I couldn’t understand how it didn’t bother them, while I was in a constant stress and fear from the environment. Tried to hide in bathrooms but it was awfully smelly there. It was mentioned two times that I might be autistic but nothing was done about it. Now I get recommendations from KZbin. It all start making sense. Thank you for this video I relate so much… especially with the girls, it made me cry.

I’m autistic and actually really appreciate your video. I kinda laughed when you make the gesture that “Autism $peaks is Garbage. Light it up blue is RUBBISH! Don’t support Autism $peaks. They only say the positive things but disenfranchise the negative histories of how we face ourselves as autistics.” So yes, she’s right, don’t support Autism $peaks. Light it up Red instead, especially that autistic women also matter.

Help I have pencil marks on mine 😭😭

On the one hand, we're super creative and imaginative.... On the other hand we're very literal thinkers. 🤔

Man I really feel like a boomer, I think it's just really been drilled into my brain that fading attractions means like all the other things you mention in your video. I guess also monogamous drills also made that. I guess I do understand the Santa allegory like now you know your partner for so long it doesn't feel nice to have that with Santa. Man I really feel ignorant but it's just my brain trying to grow around a new concept and I'll understand it in not too long. Is it like saying secrets to reddit / strangers and it feels more comfortable than to say it to someone you know because it stays that way instead of working in with everything else that you say to your partner? I mean it is a spectrum. It's hard to tell If people are people who do bad things or just how they work. Or both. People are complicated. Idk when to not understand and respect it or understand it the way I see it and deem it wrong. It feels like a slippery slope for my over openmindness

I have no idea why this popped up in my subscribers' notifications cuz it was uploaded years ago, but I suppose it's fitting to honor Sammy's memory ❤❤❤

He was a good boy. </3

Is that blahaj or a different shark? (Either way, its adorable)

R.I.P. Sammy will miss you.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making and posting this film. It lifts a great weight from my heart.

Hey, you mentioned being in an autosexual discord, is there a way to join that community? I found your channel shortly after the azeal vid got released and I started to wonder if I myself was autosexual, and after a little journey, I figured out I was :D.

I love my objects. Legos, video games, guns, knives, and watches. Luckily I have an enabling wife that will make me get new acquisitions if they catch my eye.

To all people who come across this, I have just one thing to say - it's okay to be different, it's okay to struggle, and it's okay to not understand. That being said, do not use these as excuses for personal shortcomings. Being different is not an excuse to act out or cause trouble unto others, just as struggling is not an excuse for laziness, nor is a lack of understanding to be used for willful ignorance or indifference. This goes both to those who are neurotypical and those who are neurodivergent. Society will attempt to batter and break you, to make you fit as one of the many cogs in the machine. It's going to be a long and difficult struggle to mold yourself into the person you want to be, so keep at it whatever comes your way. I've spent a long 24 years on this earth trying to find my ideal self, and while I come one step closer to the man I aspire to be every day, there are yet many miles to walk before I become him. There are yet many a thing I don't understand as well that I must before reaching that ideal self. I don't yet understand much about myself nor the world around me and the people who inhabit it. But as long as we all seek understanding of this world and of our fellow human beings, we will make it a better place for all who live alongside us. This sounds very cliche and cheesy, but if there is nothing else I have learned over the course of my life it is these three truths - being different is not a sin, being in the midst of struggle is not weakness, and not understanding something does not make you stupid or imbecilic.

This is a really good documentary and I appreciate the time you took to do it. I was in my 30's when I was diagnosed with Asperger's. Being diagnosed was very upsetting, in my mind it meant everyone had been right. I was weird, odd, that there was something not right with me. It took me many years to get past it. Self-worth is still a work in progress. Inspite of Asperger's I've had success in the IT field and am now starting a chapter of Entrepreneurship.

All my friends thought I was crazy when i said corn starch makes mochis softer 😅

Alyssa: I just can't thank you and celebrate enough this wonderful piece of work. Being closer to Matt's side of the spectrum, the verbal realm -I'm a journalist, writer and musician-, I'm also in my private campaign of helping other people in the spectrum to embrace our condition, so they can develop a new mindset focused on those «superpowers» in order to live a happier, more meaningful and less stressful life. And, in the process, to use their powerful skills to make unique and marvelous contributions to the their society. Keep up, Alyssa. You are truly making a difference in the world 🥲❤

Thank you🤧

Matt is literally me

Does this help with the steam pork buns? Any what is the stickiness from? Is to glue?

Thanks for sharing all this information. I used to feel guilty in everyr elationship until i noticed im frysexual

I hope it's works?

I love mocha toys and I'm getting 80 tomorrow!!😊😊

hmm this may have awakened something within me lol

Not technically. Nickelodeon has autistic characters. El Tigre, Donatello, Twyla….

Question: "blending in." How would you even know if you are blending in? I doubt it's working. Just be yourself.

I am fascinated with folks with autism. I am NT but learned to recognize folks with autism in the last few years ,and once I started to recognize it, I saw it everywhere! I think folks should be open about being on the spectrum. I think the public needs to get educated, so they can better appreciate the differences in all of us.

Oh yay finally a way to make them less sticky!

It feels to me as if aspies have the same growing pains as everybody else… we are all training ourselves to find balance in this crazy world, finding out how to connect with others, functioning well with regularity, blocking things when it gets overwhelming, an inner world in which we can disappear, overcoming our anxieties/depressions…. Learning life…

I'm on the autism spectrum myself and I play videogames.

I hope this works with my stretchy centipede 😩 I washed him and then he got really sticky and awful

So grateful for this video !! Thank you 😊❤ xx

I use baking soda or talcum powder. I thought about using corn starch or flour, but it seems too much like a food item and may invite insects.

Thanks to this very detailed and clarifying video. Well done to you all! 🥰

I am a gamer, and I am an Aspie. Thanks for producing and creating this eye-opening film. I identified with most of the traits depicted from the individuals you interviewed though everyone's autism is different. How my diagnosis plays in my development and into my adulthood is the fact that I am audio sensitive and unable to multitask when it comes to certain duties. And like most people, my K12 education was very chaotic for me that I don't even like to talk about my high school experiences, I have actually destroyed and tossed away my yearbooks because I don't want to reminisce the negative experiences I've endured. When I go to public places to socialize, like there's this place I go to sing karaoke, if I interact with someone I have not ever met, the only time I will speak to them is if they compliment about the songs I sung. But I am careful and cautious of who I interact with because they may be up to no good. As as far as my strengths are concerned, I tend to be creative and fascinated with art and music and of course video games. I can even remember 40 years ago and I'm only a young 46 yr old.

yall got some beautiful minds :)

4:13 what’s that discord server? I can’t find it and I would be really happy to take a look at it.

👍👍👍👋👋👋💙💙💙

I have a pig like yours, but he’s just yellow and I named him Timmy🥹

Great mini documentary, kept me both learning and entertained the whole way through. 10/10!

I found the exit.

Thank you so much! Unfortunately I just realized the problem I was having is that my hands tend to be very sweaty, so the moisture transfers. Mine don’t last very long at all due to that, and they’re so cute I don’t want to ruin more D: I dunno! The struggle is real out here

I have a mochi squishy too! And tomorrow is my exam so I will try to take it to school 🏫😅❤

Sou do Brasil e sou auto-sexual e auto-romantico

Wow, it's amazing to hear your story! I'm also autistic and have had a very similar experience with sex and intimacy throughout my life. Thank you for sharing such a personal topic. It's good to know others feel and experience these same things.
