Following up on my "Growing up with undiagnosed Autism"

So I got REALLY tired of replying to the same comments over and over on my old video, so here's an update! I'll try and do these on a schedule from now on. I'm working on some new stuff!
I tweet, a lot, if you're into that: / kamikazeekitten
If you want more regular content from me be sure to check out my livestream at / kamikazekitten
Be well, friends!

[@AspectClip]

Yeah I'm one of those people who got randomly recommended your first video on undiagnosed autism. You are awesome, I really like how you describe it, it helped me understand people a lot better. Also congrats on the baby!

[@LadyNasse]

Thank you! She's a handful. :D

[@dany8719lol]

AspectClip same

[@RandomDude655]

I don't care if a video is edited, I love your content. Both gaming and other stuff. I am one of the ones that got it in my recommended feed and was interested because I was diagnosed with ADHD and I know people who have went half their life undiagnosed. I think I even commented on the video, anyways I hope to see more content from you in the future. And like I said, the editing doesn't matter to me.

[@lucak_art]

you too? so I guess there is something on that video that gets associated with adhd by youtube

[@TOCCL]

Holysheeet, you got a kid! Congratulations :D Wish you well moving onwards!

[@jango20124]

I was recomended that video, i loved it. it was the reason i subscribed. Honestly so much of what you said you experienced in that video i also have experienced. I honestly think im high functioning. I have so many of the co morbid conditions the odds make it pretty likely.

[@willimations277]

Your old video was what gave me the bravery to talk to my parents about me having autism. Thank you so much

[@Yadeehoo]

Wow your parents didn't notice anything ? Sry bout that dude :( It's kinda weird that you have to be the one talking to your parents about it. How did it go ?

[@willimations277]

It went well, they actually did know, like, for a long time. I was probably the last one to figure it out. A lot of weight off of my shoulder's now, thanks for asking

[@Yadeehoo]

Wow that must feel amazing to clear the air :)

[@kjtj397]

You’re alive! :)

[@LadyNasse]

I hope so, otherwise this is a WEIRD afterlife! xD

[@kjtj397]

Kamikaze Kitten I watched your original video and I thought you were really cute and silly :)

[@LadyNasse]

I'm definitely silly! :D

[@Adrian-xl8mr]

Oh I was just searching for KZbin videos about high-functioning autism when I found your video so I don't think the recommendations are entirely random. My sister was diagnosed with high-functioning autism and I have ADHD so we're both trying to learn more about each other lol. It's hard for me to pay attention to a long page of text so I decided to search for videos instead and your video helped me understand a lot better. Btw you seem like a chill person and your voice is really nice. I hope you are doing well and good luck with the baby!

[@MarcusBS]

Love the video and hair!

[@eenbankberoven]

yes! "superfically neurotypical" perfect description..ive learned how to cope pretty well with doing eye contact with people by looking at their face as a whole.. i recently got a boyfriend and our faces were so close, he was like "why are you always looking to the right?"

[@ArtificialMisery]

my god, i found you through a really old video of yours about your EDS, its been 6 years and you don't seem to have aged a day, thats amazing! what's your secret? are you actually immortal?

[@LadyNasse]

EDS SECRETS! Haha, my crippling illness also has a side effect called "velvet skin" and it literally makes me look young.

[@iforgothowtotype]

You're alive!

[@generalxiii1719]

:) ❤️ this was wonderful and congratulations on your baby

[@marcelljambor2529]

A suprise to be sure,but a welcomed one

[@LadyNasse]

WOO!

[@bigdongbazuso4147]

Its so nice to have a notification of you channel again, I expect that this isnt going to be the only one in the future

[@yahdo]

and she's back! just found that video the other week, and was disappointed to find out you were inactive on all platforms :c welcome back!

[@LadyNasse]

LIES! I have been livestreaming on Twitch for six years! :P

[@romansoldier38]

Not very inactive on her Instagram

[@yahdo]

what! I couldn't find your channel at all when I looked! from what I remember the other week the link didn't work either D:

[@yahdo]

link works now, weird. maybe I didn't use it, and only tried looking for your KZbin alias, which has a marginal difference

[@LadyNasse]

Glad you found it!

[@thewalkindude7716]

You're back! Woo Hoo!

[@stevenbraggs7591]

KZbin is suddenly recommending me random videos about austism and self diagnosing so I was a bit amused wondering if KZbins algorithm was trying to tell me something. Now I know it was just a random coincidence. Also I recommend not worrying too much about comments since normal people don't leave comments on youtube vidoes. Which is why less than 10% of the people who view a video leave a comment (this seems to hold true for like 95% of the videos I come across).

[@scheimaa172]

Yeah they are always looking for a deeper meaning when there is no deeper meaning, or they ask you a question and get offended when you tell them the truth " are mad that i broke your cup ?" " yes " , i mean who wouldn't be mad.

[@debiargust6596]

I was diagnosed at age 56. Love your videos!

[@Julianacan]

shes not dead :thinking:

[@Julianacan]

also, i dont give a shit about edited videos, just shit them out like i do :joy:

[@goodthings1641]

I loved your first video, btw. It's been a while since I watched it, but it's really good. Thank you for sharing your experiences. [EDIT] oh and I totally understand what you mean about neurotypical communication. My words get read into (I don't even know how or WHY), and I'm always so fucking confused when people talk to me. I hate texting in particular. It's even more confusing! People look into deeper meanings in text messages! Wtf??? I can't even grasp what's on the surface half the time. *help*

[@johnmccue9866]

Humans are nuanced creatures.

[@angelalovell5669]

Fun! I'm so glad you gave the world some duh!context (that algorithm is super weird, spewing up people's old videos randomly - though I think it did well with yours, cos I enjoyed it) and most especially sight of fabulous hair and adorable daughter - go Izzy (Izzie?) Anyway, v. nice to meet you :)

[@kittywolf7444]

I just wanna say, I really, really, really like your tattoo :3

[@LadyNasse]

Me too! :D

[@GaleFlamel]

The KZbin Algorithm has blessed you, make more videos to please it Hail The Algorithm

[@nullinf]

I think a lot of the people in the comment section giving you grief about the whole "undiagnosed status of your condition" are a very vocal minority. There are plenty of people who take to heart what you say and leave it at that, and it's only when a select few feel really put off by something they don't like to hear when you get to only listen to them. Thank you for the update, I think this will definitely help them :)

[@LadyNasse]

I delete a lot of them. Trust me. I get at least 3 or 4 people asking the same shit EVERY. DAMN. DAY. It gets old.

[@Livingeidolon]

I'm not tryna jump on a bandwagon or claim anything that's not mine, but after seeing your first video (and my son being diagnosed with high functioning autism) a diagnosis of this for myself would make sense of things I did in my early life, and even now. I just find myself reluctant to get evaluated. Not sure why.

[@LadyNasse]

A lot of people feel that way. There's a lot of stigma against these kinds of things, and we have to unravel our own internalized biases. Good luck! :)

[@goodthings1641]

I'm currently growing up with undiagnosed autism haha great {fuck my life} I am sooooo ASHAMED of my lack of diagnosis. My Grandmother is a therapist with a masters degree in psychology. When she learned a bit about high functioning autism (Asperger's) she realized she probably figured out what I have. Counsellors and another mental health professional also agree. My parents, friends (if I have any uhh), and family all agree, too. I'm currently working through the steps to diagnosis. Please don't hurt me.

[@LadyNasse]

So aspergers =/= HFA. Aspergers was just a group of specific autism spectrum traits. Aspies could have varying levels of symptoms, same as the rest of us. :) And as I said, having a DX isn't a big deal.

[@goodthings1641]

Yes, I agree. I'm just self conscious about it. I feel like I'm not real and I still don't know why I struggle so much. As for HFA versus Asperger's, I have all symptoms/criteria for both. I use the terms interchangeably, though I know Asperger's is no longer a diagnosable syndrome.

[@Gshkent]

Since comments were turned off on your growing up video I’m glad I can comment here. I loved your dogs in your video and appreciate you putting it up. There are so many females, me included, that really start to question whether ASD is part of them or not. I loved the bit about sarcasm and texting... I use to use emoticons in my text after almost every sentence till someone brought it up and clued me in not to use them so annoyingly..I guess. 🤓 anyway you rock 😊

[@anjachan]

comments are there again ;)

[@creationswithvic]

Lol Meeka mreowing at the end 💚💙💛💜 Happy Autism acceptance month everyone!

[@malware7874]

Unrelated but I genuinely *love* your hair.

[@theRPGmaster]

I got diagnosed with aspergers, having only some of the characteristics. I guess it just wasn't an accurate set of criteria to begin with. So did they just get rid of my autism? Hmm.. Anyway, I really can relate to the social difficulties you described, coupled with my anxiety it's even more of a fucking nightmare. It'd be interesting to chat with you, I think you seem like an interesting person (and that's *-not-* an awkward compliment at all) I'm theRPGmaster#0939 on Discord. Just gonna leave that here, on the off chance you feel like it. Just one more thing, I appreciate your videos! It's nice to just listen and relax for a while. That means a lot to me, and I hope you'll post more often. Never mind editing and shit like that, I have been editing videos for a few small channels, and I know how exhausting it can be. x rpg

[@LadyNasse]

No, its just no longer called aspergers, it's just all autism spectrum, now. That's all! :)

[@shadmonk1202]

yay!!! new vids

[@mephystto2181]

you're lookin so mature

[@nonusernoyoutube]

Hahaha I love this video. "It's none of ya goddamn business."

[@TheAlia1996]

I'm so happy to see this in my notifications wooo!! Also your hair is fantastic

[@LadyNasse]

Thank you! :D

[@morio9284]

Nice vid, lol cat in bg. ^_^ U! I like u! :D

[@CoorDaLoor]

you have a really cute voice btw.

[@lorenzo42p]

she really does, she just talks so fast. I can't even think that fast when I speak.

[@CoorDaLoor]

just say everything that comes to your mind.

[@lorenzo42p]

the words come easier to me in my mind than when spoken. it is something that would come easier with practice, but is what it is. I enjoy a good conversation whether spoken or typed, when the opportunity comes around.

[@andrewhatton9963]

I had the exact same symptoms and behaviors as what you were talking about in your "growing up" video when i was young.

[@TehCacti]

you seem like a really cool fun person. you are the kind of person I really want to become friends with

[@milesbaker468]

I wanna know what’s on the computer screen

[@LadyNasse]

You mean the TV? I had a movie on to distract my daughter. Sing. It's bright/colorful and has music, so it works well as a quick baby attention holder. :)

[@Fishy_1998yt]

Kamikaze Kitten oh you have a daughter? Sorry I haven’t followed up with your videos too much

[@johnmccue9866]

"It's none of your business" I think you may be expecting too much from people. Is that cat baby friendly?

[@LadyNasse]

Nope. She ate the baby shortly after this video was made. RIP.

[@johnmccue9866]

Kamikaze Kitten All praise the Cat god. May we be granted good weather.

[@SoniaLeli]

Do you happen to know if you had a development delay when early in childhood? Like when you were a toddler? What age did you start to speak? My son is three and has high functioning autism and I am looking into how is it to grow up with that disorder. But my son did has speech delay like he started to speak at two. And after that, he only spoke in the third person. Now is getting better but he has still problems expressing feelings and understanding communication and he is also very literal. Thank you for your videos, these videos help me be more aware of this disorder and understand people better.

[@LadyNasse]

Somewhat, yes. I didn't speak til I was 3. I started speaking in full sentences. I sort of skipped the "first words" stage, and I had weird speech patterns and whatnot. It just took me longer to pick up on verbal communication skills than most kids, but I wasn't stupid and I knew what others were saying.

[@trishsoha]

Yay, you. Baby, too.

[@lewisbirkett4428]

Awesome hair

[@captblacklung1500]

You keep doing the "um.." Also big fan of your hair

[@LadyNasse]

I know. ;__;

[@RapoDerpicus]

You and Milla Jovovich look quite alike i think

[@LewdConnoisseur]

You have a voice for ASMR

[@LadyNasse]

I'm sick, though~

[@nopetellingnothing45]

At the beginning of the video you look like a cat! :D

[@ferhatbakan8865]

damn you good :D

[@aurelius5534]

love the hair

[@ghostlywolfles9478]

Lmao, finally get an upload

[@thedistance871]

Why do you have a pin going through your skin

[@M1ST3RM1ND]

That's a tattoo.

[@thedistance871]

Oh lol

[@stef-ruvx]

what did you do with your beautifully tomboy haircut!!?!?!?

[@LadyNasse]

Hair grows. That "haircut" was just regrowth after I shaved my head. My hair was, until very recently, past my shoulders.

[@thenewestaddition173]

In the video this video is referencing, there was a dog. Now there is a cat. Where is the dog? Bring back the dog.

[@LadyNasse]

The dog is back in Nebraska. I moved to Washington.

[@thenewestaddition173]

Kamikaze Kitten well that is a better place to be in. However. Dog.

[@LadyNasse]

It's ok, I'm going back to the doggos.

[@thenewestaddition173]

Kamikaze Kitten I think that's the right choice.

[@thenewestaddition173]

Kamikaze Kitten what's the dogs name?

[@cannotHIDEpr]

you are super cool:D

[@LastofusEllie]

lol I love when you say umm... I'm going start sayibg that to my bosss

[@dany8719lol]

What are u doing these days ? Hobbies job etc etc...

[@LadyNasse]

I've been streaming on Twitch for six years.

[@dany8719lol]

Kamikaze Kitten I never do get on twitch but for you I check you u out.

[@canalsincontenido]

Why did you have porn in the background?

[@LadyNasse]

Last time I checked Sing was a kid's movie, but I guess whatever you're into... weirdo.

[@canalsincontenido]

Then why did you blur it, uh? Case. Closed.

[@MH-qi2mf]

Copyright © issues probably? Says a lot about your mind Es lo que hay

[@LadyNasse]

It's called copyright and DMCA takedowns you epic fucking moron.

[@allidoiscry4119]

You seem more neurotypical these days.. Less awkward and shy

[@robokill387]

That's not a compliment.
