GhostbustersFan77 first off, not all in the autistic spectrum are savants. Second, I personally don't like the label because it's almost meaningless considering the diversity within the spectrum. I have Aspergers and the last thing I want is a social justice movement making a big deal out of it. That said, it'd be nice if it wasn't an insult, but I also could care less. I find it rather autistic of myself not to care about such things lol. I think many people in history are likely to have had autistic tendencies. Victimizing ourselves does us no good. Continuing to overachieve does, as it always has.

Asperger persons are unique like everyone and do some things better and other things worst than neurotypical people in general. Almost all of they have some other mental ilnesess and they usually have good visual perception. They are not all intelligent, but they can focus better than neurotypical people in their interets, and less in other stuff, with better perfomance. But there is a really big connection of Autism Spectrum and high intelligence, and that's why a lot of Asperger persons have high intelligence and a lot of intelligent people has Autism traits (not necessarily Asperger's Syndrome, because you can have only some traits, that indicates that you probably have Autism genes).

I am now 61, was never diagnosed in the early/mid 60s, I know now that my growing up was all about. My parents both knew something was different, but we took it in our stride. Here is a glimpse of my growing 'pains' i crawled till i was 2, suddenly stood and walked. From early in primary school, i developed a reclusive/rejection attitude, did not make friends easy, went through primary with one best friend, another david. Had severe 'phase outs - staying awake but mind is miles away, mums voice was sounding like echo in the distance, maybe 5 min long. Was dead scared in a restaurant to get up from my chair to go to the loo. Stuttered on nearly every third word, including my own name. Butt of jokes at school. both levels. Couldnt throw an overhead ball, as in cricket fielding. threw under arm further.!!! My one love was creativity. Art, woodwork, sculpting in clay, at 15 (74) it was turned to doing my own oil painting with Hobbytex (oil paint filled ball point tubes) an aussie company, through transitioning between primary and secondary, i had speech lessons, for a th 'problem' all this i lived through. grew out of the reclusiveness, and stuttering, and fear of people, my creativity is immense, except not learning stuff that is usually designated as female craft, (knitting, crochet, and sewing). Building a shed form my imagination, no written plans.

As it turned out, I was incredibly intelligent; I just couldn't find the words to say that my brain was processing things so fast that my physical self couldn't keep up. I've been HUGE into computers ever since my family first got one when I was about twelve because it gives me a social outlet where I don't have to be face-to-face with people.

I was told, back in the mid-70's, to hide my autism,as it may have gotten me institutionalized.So I did. Even today I can hide it fairly well. But it is a struggle.

Now I struggle as an adult with prejudice. I was diagnosed in my late 20's, and whilst I myself had an eyeopener with the diagnosis, I've stopped sharing it with others. You distinctly see people change how they act once they know that you're different. I especially dislike it when they try to diminish and refer to it as some sort of "trendy diagnosis". Yeah, I LOVED struggling for all my school years, such a COOL fashion statement!!

(It's always too loud, too bright, too everything, and he just can't deal with it easily.) Many autistic people can find that they have something they are good at, if it can be discovered. HFA has an easier time to filter the constant sensory data. I do say easier because it can still overwhelm, and often does so when it's very inconvenient. HFA also usually have a skill they excel at, but as Dr Temple Grandin explains, we often have some area in our life that is more difficult for us to assume. (I hesitate to use the word understand because we might understand it very well, though be unable to practice what we know.)

I also have Asperger's Syndrome . Before I thought it was a curse but now i think its awesome. I was born with it and will die with it. My dad always said that it was a strength and not a weakness and he was right. So too all others with Asperger's who think that being autistic is a bad thing it really is not. We are powerful and can do great things.

I have PDD. In school and real life, I was always in denial of it, and tried to learn and act like the "normal kids". But the thing is, I do those things a little differently, and that's okay. This video proves that what's wrong with me isn't me, but how others perceive me, and once they're out of my head, I can go on to do anything.

I'm on the high functioning autism and asperger spectrum and I'm still struggling to deal with it even as an adult, and when I found out Dan Aykroyd has the same condition I was surprised about it and it made me an even bigger fan of Ghostbusters than I already am now. But my struggles with the conditions are hard but I won't quit, these guys didn't and neither will I, and my one goal as an adult is to find a girlfriend I can be comfortable around, and for those who deal with high functioning autism and asperger syndrome I support all of you, thank you.

Because being a aut means that your superior to everyone else who classifies as a norm, and everyone who classifies us as idiots are the true idiots for they are inferior to auts

Asperger persons are unique like everyone and do some things better and other things worst than neurotypical people in general. Almost all of they have some other mental ilnesess and they usually have good visual perception. They are not all intelligent, but they can focus better than neurotypical people in their interets, and less in other stuff, with better perfomance. But there is a really big connection of Autism Spectrum and high intelligence, and that's why a lot of Asperger persons have high intelligence and a lot of intelligent people has Autism traits (not necessarily Asperger's Syndrome, because you can have only some traits, that indicates that you probably have Autism genes).

Temple Grandin definitely inspires me. The kiddos I teach at my school who all have autism inspire me every day. They are amazing human beings and I love that I get to see their growth and watch them learn.

Autism is almost like the anti of narcissism.
@sachinmistry18 жыл бұрын
+MISTAKEWASMADE4live I could see that. I feel that I have great artistic ability, but I don't necessarily like to brag about it. Rather, I just want to continue practicing and get better. Throughout my time during high school and college, I've had lower self esteem. I've had difficulty dating and felt that I wasn't attractive. Lately, I've gained more confidence in myself, but still have some difficulty in social situations. Do you find that autistic personalities attract narcissistic personalities? I've had several former friends who were narcissistic.

Thank you for making this video. I have Aspergers and this makes me feel so good. People need to understand how we handle things and are just like other people
