Airi, Clara and the meaning of Λμtism |

[@Syphilis-Buddy]

Even autism is a no-no word for youtube? Dear lord.

[@darkmega97]

Maybe the real autism is the friends we made along the way

[@raimyonlinewarrior236]

For phase connect it's pretty accurate

[@Frutticattygirl]

This proves, yet again, that airi lacks critical information. She also lacks even more critical communication and comprehension skills 😂

[@maroXUprising]

And that’s why we all love her, that’s our Airi.

[@Frutticattygirl]

@@maroXUprising What do you mean "our"? I just watch her for the entertainment, just not the kind she'd want lol

[@Leon_Sullivan]

This felt oddly like being back in elementary school. Clara has the makings of a good teacher.

[@ulrickts]

Everyone has traits that may align with various conditions, the DSM diagnosis (as I understand it, at least) is that it is given if it has a significant enough threshold and bearing on one's life.

[@grimoireweiss3099]

Airi has a point. It's the same with people self diagnosing ADD to excuse themselves for poor work performance.

[@FriendlyArchpriest]

I'm literally professionally diagnosed with both, I take three meds every day (it was actually four but one is messing up my liver so the psychiatrist told me to quit it) and I use my diagnosis as a crutch and bike wheels. But so what, I'm guilty of my own poor skill and human ability, what does that change? There's even less hope now than there was before and I just want to Canadian Healthcare even more. I mean, life was never worth the effort anyways, so any handicaps and buffs are all meaningless in the end.

Medication has helped me a lot with ADHD. You do what you can with what you have.

[@grimoireweiss3099]

@@FriendlyArchpriest I just want to make sure you didn't think I was insulting people who *are* professionally diagnosed. It's people who just say they have so-so that make me roll my eyes. Meanwhile others like yourself are much more functional while trying to make things better.

[@lucasLSD]

@@000Krim keyword, self diagnose, if you have meds a professional approved it.

Being “easily distracted” is a human survival mechanism. You don’t want someone to get too obsessed with what they are doing less they can’t see danger approach. That’s to say, it’s a trait, and shouldn’t always be treated as disability. If you can’t draw well nor sing well, it should be not a “disability”. However we too have the responsibility to overcome our own shortcomings and contribute. If one has ADD, one can definitely contributes in other ways. For instance, they’ve found ADHD people aren’t as stressed when multiple stimulants are fired at once. This can occur in situations such as when handling a large group of children. If one has some knowledge regarding the career choice of Hololive, it really fits the narrative. Even bad driving is a common trait in people with ADD who get distracted behind the wheel.

Damn never knew they dropped the "A-Micro-Tism" need to get some before the stocks run dry

[@bigMax1337]

In case someone wonders low functioning autism used to be a thing people connected with autism. Nowadays it's mostly aspergrs or high functioning autism in my experience

[@yervavuena4978]

I'm not autistic, I'm just a stoner that's high 24/7 😂

[@FiniteXbc]

Airi is wrong some people just and make it there way avoid criticism and responsibly. Key word: self diagnosed

[@COIN_a]

They pressed some buttons on an online quiz, that's clearly the same thing as speaking with a doctor face-to-face

[@chaoslordmissingno]

Airi isn't wrong tbh
