@@holliemabbott949 you are so positive and did a wondeful job who discuss their personal thoughts and autism, and hopefully you will do more videos in the future and keep people like us posted, God Bless you and Remember who you are.

when i was growing up i didn't have any friends and it was quite difficult for me to interact with others some point had me lost in the sauce i was going through alot all i wanted is to get out there in the world make my own choices of what i wanna do, and don't need to spend my time being left alone. i was depressed, angry, and annoyed by my emotions i blamed when i met my therapist at the time i was 16 years old. she told me this don't let your own emotions ruin your willingness everything is going to be all right patience is coming just give it time no matter how long it takes. i'll be here for you if you need anything, As for you Hollie i think it will be a pleasure to meet you in person one day.

i been diagnosed with Autism when i was 7 years old but no never told me so as i gotten older i did realize i had it in me but does not mean i can't do nothing on my own cause i know how to maintain my experiences, and life i asked for. i'm 30 years old i have a job master's degree and friends who i can talk and tell them what is going through my mind i don't need to hide everything from myself. All is well for the rest of us

[@juanvalenzuela1418]

Dealing with change is definitely a tough challenge on someone who's autistic, but not unreachable. I do fancy how you have taken your situation to the limit in the sense you have decided not to be hidden anymore, You're standing up for yourself which at this historic moment we're getting through is admirable by far :) and yeah, That's true as a day light we aspergers are analytic when something catches our eyes, we go all the way.

[@holliemabbott949]

Absolutely!! Yes I’ve gone from telling no one about my diagnosis to everyone I know knowing about it, it’s crazy!

You should make a video about your hobbies and interests. :)

[@holliemabbott949]

Ooo I might do this!

[@nyokocunningham1881]

making a video about hobbies and interests is a good idea. i was thinking about the same thing.

[@markmywords5509]

Another super video. Very interesting to hear you’d make a good detective. That’s probably true. I tend to look into the gaps and see what others miss. I was a terrible person to be with in Las Vegas watching magicians Siegfried and Roy because I looked into the dark and could see how they did almost every magic trick ….. and I couldn’t keep it to myself when the others I was with wanted to believe they’d seen real magic. I spoilt it for everyone because they didn’t want to know - and I couldn’t understand that! Keep going with your channel. It’s so good to see your generation is so much more enlightened than mine.

[@holliemabbott949]

I will do! That’s funny ahah, I’d of been just the same, thanks for watching.

[@rosiegiesler4705]

I’m exactly the same as you I went to a small independent for half of my primary school and all of my secondary school then did sixth form in a state secondary school. And I’m afraid it’s the same what I found was that because the year was so big people got into the year and cling to a social group as soon as they arrived. Which meant their wasn’t a huge amount of mixing I found my social group in second year of sixth form for me wich was my performing arts class as where all a bit weird but also all love performing wich is like me. But I still didn’t socialise like them but they love me for myself which I love. But it’s not that much harder because their a cliques wich you get dragged into. I’m starting uni this year wich hopefully should be easier as I’m off to music college to socialise as we all love music.

i know that people don't like to get into debates about who has it harder, but since autism affects a persons social-skills or communication, ability to socialize and connect with others, people are entitled to their opinion, but i've always felt that Autism is going to affect mens dating lives a lot more than womens dating lives, since the burden of leadership falls on the guys shoulders, guys always being expected to make the first move or do the pursuing, etc.

No I completely understand what your saying, and due to the way a man’s role in relationships is portrayed in society, I think sadly your right!
