OCD Tendencies Are Interfering With Daily Living | Autism Parenting (S3E25)

We had our appointment with Braylee's developmental pediatrician and we brought up sleep and OCD tendencies with them. We talked about what we should do up until the next appointment. Braylee is autistic and she does have a lot of stims and we want do make sure we do not suppress them while we address the OCD tendencies. #autism #weefam

[@christinawalker6797]

I love how Braylee pointed to herself when you told her she's awesome. Braylee you are awesome and don't let anyone tell you otherwise :)

[@TheWeeFamily]

We thought that was the best! She normally imitates very literally so it was great to see her actually point at herself ❤️❤️

[@tyreesetjjoyner1995]

I still love Braylee singing. Imagine Braylee singing to Chris Ulmer of SBSK.

[@wendystephan35]

I’m just amazed at this little girl’s pitch! I hope music therapy isn’t expensive so you can continue with it. I truly believe it is the way to this girl’s ability to talk in the future.

[@TheWeeFamily]

We fortunately have our waiver that covers her music therapy sessions 😊 Her singing has really helped her practice and improve speech

[@girlfromsouth214]

Talk about heart melting when Braylee sings. It's awesome that you both get to go to her appointments with her. The sacrifice you make is inspiring and makes me want to be a better mom.

[@TheWeeFamily]

It’s really nice to do things as a team and have a second set of ears and brain to process or bring things up in current time etc.

[@bionicprincess8008]

I had a friend who has a son with severe OCD. He had to turn the water on & off in a certain way, turn the lights on & off, had to enter rooms a certain way and eat in certain ways. It became so bad he could not go to school. Fast forward after much therapy he is about to graduate from college. There is hope. 🙏🏻💗🤗

[@TheWeeFamily]

That’s so great that he’s graduating college and overcome that! We love to hear that people are still successful through challenges. 💕

I wish Braylee could meet my son Evan. He is four, has non-verbal ASD. I guarantee that together, these two little amazing kiddos could solve all the world’s problems someday if their powers combined. They are also both absolutely adorable, so they have that in common too. ♥️♥️♥️

Braylee is an awesome young lady. I love it when she sings with her dad.

[@caitlinh6937]

You are amazing parents

[@TheWeeFamily]

[@ZumieZumes]

We have a lamp with a pink light bulb in it. After bath time, we only have that light on so our sons mind can think the sun is setting. It’s a “woo woo” thing.... but it works for us. Quiet play in the “pink” light is very relaxing. Be careful because like with Ella... melatonin can cause nightmares. It happened with both my sons. I have OCD. And didn’t know until an adult (then postpartum it got bad). I can tell my son with ASD has OCD but not officially diagnosed yet.

[@selmavansligtenhorst]

Oh my lord, I just love Braylees singing and trying to mimic you so much! You are so adorable B! Love from the Netherlands xxx

[@TheWeeFamily]

She is like a little parrot sometimes, ready to repeat and mimic anything. Always good practice ❤️

[@amyspencer232]

Her little voice is so cute. O m g

[@kristinwallace6551]

OCD is really hard. I have so many ocd tendencies and if I don't do them I get anxious and things feel wrong. For me my OCD is also related to my sensory issues. Especially touch and how things feels such as clothes. I am working really hard to remind myself that things are and will be ok even if I miss one thing in my routine. It is a constant struggle. I take meds to help and use other strategies too. It is definitely a learning process and has been since I was little. Braylee will do great because she has amazing parents to help support her every step of the way! Much love.

[@TheWeeFamily]

We know it can be such a challenge and you are doing great by working through it! I know it must take a lot and we are proud! 👍🏻❤️

[@sirenatheodyssa]

I recognized the tune of the first song she was singing but i just couldn't place it. So cool to see her remembering songs and repeating them :)

[@TheWeeFamily]

She has such a love of her songs!

[@TheAwetist802]

You are awesome and watching your videos makes me incredibly happy. Love is clearly guiding you in all of your choices and it shows. I think of you as the "wee WISE family". I am an adult now (have been for QUITE some time ~ LOL!) but I remember very clearly what it was like for me when I was a wee Autistic person. Bedtime/nightime was challenging and trying for me, my mom, my grandparents. BUT. My grandmother had incredible instincts for what would help me and this was LOOONG before many people had any kind of understanding of Autism (1970s). She used to give me the heaviest and softest quilts, extra pillows that I could place around my body, and she would tuck me into bed super-tight (like swaddling ~ that kind of effect). Having the weight and the surrounding soft things and being "held" by the tight tuck was 95% of the solution of getting me to fall asleep and stay asleep. I found out on my own that if I wore a winter hat and pulled it down over my eyes and wore earplugs/earmuffs (basically creating a sensory dampening effect), it was a complete, secure, quiet, and still environment and I would drift off to sleep and only awaken if I needed to go to the bathroom. I stopped needing bits and pieces of that solution over the years and it is only when I am sick and/or in meltdown phase that I incorporate some of those solutions into my self-care, now. One of my eccentricities, I suppose, is that, in the summer, I have to have our fans or A/C on full blast on such occasions so that I am not overheating while covered in heavy blankets or wearing a winter hat!! :) Does Braylee use a weighted blanket or do you think any of these kinds of solutions could help with her sleep patterns? I do know that turning the brain "off" can be hard for many of us Neurodiverse folks, especially at night, even when we are actually tired. I agree that making the room as "boring as possible" is a good move. I do really love watching how you all navigate your way through life together. Thank you for being such incredible, affirming parents to Braylee!! You may or may not hear this from a lot of us adult ND folks but I am going to tell you ~ it heals a LOT of my own inner child's wounds to see another Autistic child so well-loved and supported.

[@TheWeeFamily]

That’s amazing that she was so intuitive and able to figure out such an abstract thing of its time and really accommodate you to allow for the best sleep! Your preferred setup sounds similar to Braylee’s. She has multiple blankets and pillows and likes us to lay with her and give her squeezes or tickles on occasion. When we don’t lay with her, she just likes a good comforter to cover her entirely, including her head. She gets warns so once she’s asleep we go and move the blanket off her face so she doesn’t drip in sweat. She does have a weighted blanket on her bed at all times but any time we offer or try to put it on her she kicks it off. She does like her compression/Lycra sheet though. Thank you so much for that feedback. We have heard a few others say similar and that was never something that we even thought our channel would do. I’m glad that we can help adults on the spectrum just by loving Braylee well because I know that isn’t everyone’s experience from their childhood. I think knowing that helps drive us to make sure that she doesn’t feel negatively or unsupported or not accepted. Her happiness is our biggest goal.

[@nuclearmomof5750]

How, please explain, do you not say “Batman!” at the end of her “na na na na na na na na” song?

[@TheWeeFamily]

Braylee is just gorgeous and you both are great parents, breylee is talking so well 😘😘

[@kwaktak]

My 16yo son has OCD about things to the point where most of his speech is centered around “preferred items.” We try to to get around this by using PECS to create a visual schedule and place the preferred item/activity after other activities that he doesn’t necessarily enjoy. To keep the schedule from becoming a ritual we try to vary it up but the biggest limitation is when only a limited number of things are accessible. That’s not to say that routines shouldn’t be a ritual; we have rituals for meals and getting ready for bed and getting ready for school. The trick is teaching priorities so that necessary things get done and less vital things get worked through. Just some ideas for you guys to try. It seemed to help with us and introduce chores and internalize things that weren’t originally enjoyable like taking meds or going to the bathroom.

[@TheWeeFamily]

Thanks as always for the great input Neil! We don’t really mind it when it’s free time or whatnot but when we have things that need to get done it becomes more of an issue. 👍🏻

[@Tilly.2002]

Omg she is ADORABLE!!!

[@theherbivorelife5743]

my 4 almost 5 year old has autism he also sings in the car. Its much preferable to the screaming and other vocal stimming he typically does. He is only partially verbal so I have noticed an increase in stims and screaming and sadly a decrease in eye contact, but I love it when he sings.

[@TheWeeFamily]

The singing is definitely preferable to other possibilities. Braylee’s vocal stims are generally all really pleasant.

[@moedoesdiys1880]

Such a beautiful girl! Soooo pretty!!! Wow! My son also has autism. I understand how it is. My son is verbal and right about in the middle of the spectrum, but still quite a challenge most days. Holyyyyy heck! I’m new here and I can’t wait to watch and catch up on your channel. Thanks for sharing your experiences with autism. It is helpful to share so the world can become more knowledgeable about it. I’m sick of people staring at my son when he flaps and vocal stims real loudly, or when has a meltdown. I’m sick of my mother in law harping me about my son being in diapers still (5). I’m just sick of it!! So thanks for sharing your life with asd. I’m so glad you have a big platform here ! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@TheWeeFamily]

Braylee has dyspraxia and so she struggles to make the oral motor shapes and movements for sounds when talking and it helps her focus and imitate the mouth shapes for better pronunciation. It is just what we have found works for her specific needs 🙂 Pinterest has good speech therapy activity suggestions. We used that when she was younger!

[@Mumma2many]

[@somedude172]

trying to figure out the differences when theres so many overlapping conditions is really difficult! im autistic but I also have anxiety and depression, along with some other issues so its really hard to figure out whats what. and I really want to not psychoanalyze myself and try to figure out why I do everything I do bc its weird lol, but I need to in order to figure out how to solve it. treating a depression symptom is so different from treating an autism symptom. I don't wanna go upping my antidepressants or anxiety meds, just to find out the thing ive had trouble with is related to autism. ps. braylee is the cutest kid ever! the way she pointed to herself and said awesome, then her little "yaaay" not long after that just killed me

[@TheWeeFamily]

It is hard to discern which symptoms are what, especially since a lot of things can share the same ones. We just want to make sure that we are aware and doing the right things for what she needs, just like you said that you do!! 👍🏻 We love that part too ☺️

My boys are not on the spectrum but I have always gone after what is best for them! Even if meant getting a protection from abuse order on their dad! He hit my son (who is now 20) with a PVC pipes and we thought he had a broken jaw when he was 9 or 10. He never got them over night again and did not see them for over a year. They were not hurt thank God! But he and his family were never to nice to them until his mother passed and then he did too. But they are ok. I Sm like a momma bear when it comes to my boys. I can see you and Asa would be like that if someone did your girls wrong too! Just our parent love!

[@TheWeeFamily]

So glad that they weren’t hurt!! For us, parenting is really about doing what’s in our kid’s best interest. You did right to protect them.

"Brailee is such a lovely girl"

[@kristenkelley8285]

Loved this video! That was one of the things I noticed about my Ari was OCD, but it's more like obsessive tendencies and routines. When she starts playing with something, I think she doesn't know how to stop. For instance, the other day she started painting pictures of blue herons, and now every day she has to do more. Another thing she does is she'll pretend to be an animal, and I swear she doesn't know how to stop! And if she starts telling a made-up story, she HAS to finish, and if you interrupt her, she will almost have a meltdown unless she can start over and tell you the whole story. Luckily she's homeschooled, but it does interfere as a time-waster. I'm always like, Come on kid! 😁

[@theedenadventures]

Kristen Kelley my 4 year old is the same she gets obsessed on a certain toy or activity and that’s like all she’ll do for ages. I tried restricting her favourite toy because it was getting ridiculous and she did move on and start playing with something else but immediately that became the obsessive activity 🤦‍♀️

When I get tired before bed (as a non-autistic adult) I put my housecoat on and socks/slippers as I start to feel a lot cooler. Now, I don’t have the option of just hopping into bed and doing to sleep as I have a 10 month old & 22 month old boys 🤣 But you definitely feel coldish when your tired, I notice my ASD 7 year old wants her “snuggle” on when she starts feeling tired and she’ll generally ask to go to bed about 40-60mins later. We’re in Scotland, we’ve had snow for while lol so it’s already cold

Sweet girl.... We are getting KJ's sleep cycle back on track with meds...she's developing more stims...we too don't supress. Her newest thing that can be a little eerie since its new is singing a line in a song over and over. It was raining one morning and I told her Rain rain go away! She repeated it and promptly got in the car and began rocking and singing in tune to the song "Rain rain go away" over and over for a solid 30 minute drive....🤦‍♀️....I did try and break that loop she was in after 15 minutes but it didn't work.

Sometimes without suppressing it’s just nice to switch up the stim (or song in that case). Braylee has also done the same thing singing the same song over and over and after that long of the same song it gets hard.
