How To Support Autistic People AFTER Autism Awareness Month - World Autism Awareness Week 2021

In this video, I go into how to support autistic people after autism awareness month. With World Autism Awareness Week 2021 falling in April, it got me thinking about the general public and how to support autistic people throughout the course of the year, not just during world autism awareness month. So with this in mind, I came up with a few ideas on how to support autistic people in general but for loved ones.
Are their ways on how to help an autistic person after autism awareness month 2021? Please let me know down below!

ABOUT ME
Hello indie people, I'm Andy and I have Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I make videos on autism from the perspective of an autistic adult. Sharing my autism experiences to help other autistic people and autism families to improve their understanding of autism.
This channel is focused on raising autism awareness & acceptance of autism. To try and change attitudes towards autism, to educate people about autism for those who are new to the autism world.
So if you are on the spectrum, know someone with autism, or are working professionally in the autism field and want to learn more about autistic people then consider subscribing and turning on the notification bell to see all future videos.

I prefer autism acceptance month instead of awareness, but awesome series! I can’t wait to see more.

[@robynriana396]

Happy Autism Awareness Month, everyone! ❤️💛💚💙💜 This video is perfect to share at the end of my blog post for tomorrow! Thanks for all you do. (I’ll tag you on Instagram tomorrow, Andy!)

[@josephsells4187]

I wish more people showed support and understanding as well. I think if people had more understanding it would have helped me realise i have autistic traits sooner.

[@solunasassoon]

I also do not do social things with coworkers. I have iced tea and a salad at 11:00 everyday. people always say "aren't you tired of salad and iced tea" which confuses me. why would I be tired of it?

[@NicholasDunnAutistic]

I think people could have more patience, especially at work. Sometimes it takes me a few times to get the hang of something. Partly trying to fit in the routine of whatever and/or short term memory loss. Great video!

Just listening on my lunch break at work; I couldn’t agree more with everything, Andy! 😀 Support is very important; there’s a lot of lack of support and positivity within the community, and individuals too. I’m lucky at work because I’m working with colleagues with learning difficulties but they have different traits (if it’s right, if it’s not, sorry) like Autism and Down’s Syndrome too. We are all understanding and feel included and this is why I believe the rest of the world should be like. Cannot wait to see tomorrow’s video as always, Andy; you’ve done amazing and put a lot of hard work into all the videos this week 🙂🦋✨

[@kaishawna3753]

I've always enjoyed Andy's videos. Especially when it comes to autism! 🤗

[@extraordinarygirl6384]

Thank you for offering this great advice about how to support autistic people! ❤️

[@IndieAndy]

Aww glad you enjoyed it!

[@OfLegionReal]

I am always that person who needs to make tea for myself at night around like 10-11pm and I listen to music

[@bryanmerton5153]

Well said! My partner and I have been together for 32 years. He has my back all of the time. I eat the same thing at work also and when I go to a restaurant I order the same thing😀. Like you said, I know what I like.

[@IndieAndy]

Aww see to me that's not even weird that's just being logical and just you being you.

[@sable4492]

I am autistic and have ADHD and not many understand the executive functioning part and people think I am lazy. It is so unfair I wish people had more education.

[@starcourtflayer5762]

Okay am I the only person who finds it difficult to switch between interacting with different groups of people? Like I find it hard to go quickly go from talking to one group of people to the next 😅

[@michaelv151]

Thanks! I have a friend that is autistic. I want to support him.

[@75maxdv35]

last video tomorrow 😥

[@joyofsalvation100]

Socialization is the problem and how to understand social cues. How do autistic kids become socially successful in the middle school? Grade 6th-8th in USA.

[@chichirinuriko20]

Great advice. You explain this better than me. lol

[@asdhusband239]

I believe in doing research to understand autism in general but also understanding people individually. This helps me understand my wife better and other autistics.

[@i_luv_porkcutlet_bowls5449]

Thank you for this! My gf has autism and I'm doing my best to figure out how to help her💜

[@GemmasJourneyGrace]

thank you for this amazing video Andy ! happy Autism Awareness Month

[@IndieAndy]

Aww thank you Gemma, you too! ☺️

[@jacobchamberlain]

I was born in April and I'm autistic!

[@wannabehistorian371]

I missed that month.

Pot lucks?
