Adult Female Social Traits of Autism *LATE DIAGNOSED* | Aussie Autism Family

[@booksquid856]

It's crazy how this overlaps so completely with CPTSD!😮

[@aussieautismfamily]

There are lots of overlaps there

[@krystenc2486]

I’m so glad you have your diagnoses, it makes such a difference being able to finally start the journey of understanding yourself. I relate to absolutely everything you’ve spoken about in this video, you have described your experiences and traits well. Fellow Aussie autistic mum of autistic kids, formally diagnosed last year at 35 (but started to work it out for myself when I was 30 and having meltdowns and shutdowns whenever people visited when I already had a 1 year old and a newborn to care for) 🩵 was great having ‘friends’ ask my husband when he was going to leave me because I wasn’t ’acting normal’. He is the only person who truly knows and understands and accepts me as I am.

Thank you for explaining your traits so well. I felt like I'm looking in a mirror! I relate to everything you shared. I was diagnosed autistic 7 years ago and I'm still learning new things about my autism.

[@aussieautismfamily]

Thank you! I hoped I did okay with explaining them

[@rainbowgirl55]

@@aussieautismfamily You did brilliantly. Next unraveling the details for each one lol!!

[@simonnemoore9317]

Wow! I feel like our experience is soo similar. I was diagnosed last year. Your doing amazing x

[@brentthomas8196]

Thank you for your video Jess! I found it very insightful.

[@Liz-zb1sv]

I guess I'm normal but I do see myself in a lot of your traits. I also, like you, find other peoples emotional sadness more impactful than my own sad events. I interperated the dull reaction of my own tragic events as a self care strategy. Maybe?? Love seeing your videos. Take care, you are doing so well. Liz

[@aussieautismfamily]

There are other areas that met my diagnosis: communication, sensory, repetitive behaviours etc

[@tyreesetjjoyner1995]

Good video. It’s good to see you again. I miss you.💛

[@acke26]

Thanks for a very good video. We have autism on my wife's side so this video is a big help.

[@whitneymason406]

Very relateable! I will often write scripts for my phone calls, too! 💛

[@heathercate1812]

I can relate to all of this and I've been diagnosed with autism at the start of the year

[@aussieautismfamily]

💛💛💛

[@loricat5606]

[@shalaaldridge9662]

[@chilllzoneee]

Thank you for sharing

[@aussieautismfamily]

Thanks for watching!

[@mamtarai6558]

Could you please inform me what happened to Madeline and Eric's channel? They were such a lovely couple and Penelope was such a beautiful baby.

[@doreenstallard3265]

I like your new intro ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@doreenstallard3265]

Do you have selective mutism?!

[@doreenstallard3265]

Im ASD as well.

[@doreenstallard3265]

Me 2 , I don’t like speaking on the phone 📞.

[@aussieautismfamily]

Thank you!

[@doreenstallard3265]

Your welcome 🤗.

[@acke26]

It would be nice to hear your experience of medical treatment (adhd) (are there a treatment for autism?)

[@acke26]

Why do you think people with autism are so self judgemental? I'm very flamboyant and weird (not autistic), but I don't care what other people think of me. Could it help autistic people to work on their mind set - not careing so much (easier said than done)

[@acke26]

Do you think there is a neurotic side in people having autism? More specific, over thinking other peoples perception of you and being over emphathetic. Working on a more carefree mind set could maybe help(?)
