What it's like to have a Brother with Autism.

Hey guys, here with a short video I made about what it is like for me to have an older brother with autism, I hope you enjoy it and see how blessed I am to have Mitchel as my brother. I love him to death and I want everyone to see how awesome our bond is!
*note, every case of autism is different some more severe than others, not every autistic person is like my brother. This video speaks on behalf of my personal relationship with my brother.
If any of you want to contact me about speaking at event or have any questions feel free to e-mail me at [e-mail] I want to hear your stories about knowing someone with autism!
The song used in this video is Always Gold by Radical Face, the song somewhat inspired me to make this video because it speaks of a tight lifelong bond between two brothers.

[@SpencerTimme]

Wow! I can't believe this video has received so much support with over a million views! I can't thank you all enough for sharing this video and your stories that convey a similar message. Much love.

How could someone possibly dislike a video like this. This shows they have no heart.

[@chaseanthonybrewer8462]

My brother has autism as well, our bond isn't the way yours is, due to my parent's parenting habits being less than acceptable, I have to parent my brother, and he really doesn't like me because of that, but I still know more about my little brother than any other person on earth, and I'm proud to say that.

You are amazing. He might seem to hate you, but I know deep down he loves you.

[@LydiaXavier321]

My soulmate has "acquired autism" from brain damage he got when he was six months old. But love comes in all forms. He's the best person I can ask for, and I wouldn't change a single thing about him.

[@LydiaXavier321]

***** Thanks :)

[@Elizabeth-ts4om]

You can't "acquire" Autism. It is a condition that you are born with

[@LydiaXavier321]

BOB!theGMObanana Yes you can. Anything that permanently changes the circuitry of the brain in a certain way can cause the symptoms we call autism. People who say or think that you can't acquire autism make the experience worse for people like him.

[@Elizabeth-ts4om]

+Lydia Xavier ummmm....no...just...no. The doctor who told you that is full of bullshit and should not be a doctor

[@LydiaXavier321]

You made me cry! Happy tears, though. My son has autism. He is 19 and is currently researching the church's view of autism and what they're doing for those in the church who have Autism/Asperger's. He's annoyed and frustrated to find that there's not much to be found on this subject. He likes the term "Aspies".. I've told him that God knew I needed him in my life. He is a such a blessing to me. You are great brothers and a shining example of how this should all work. Thank you for making and sharing your video. You're an inspiration, Sweetheart. I would love to see a series of these videos. With great affection and wishing you many blessings.

This means a lot to me because I have Autism (high-functioning) and its good to know that people like you are out there taking care of people like your brother. There are some people who don't understand how people like us are, and sometimes it is hard for us to express emotion so I am glad you have the ability to make him excited

Low functioning is the worst high functioning means you can do more and your Iq is higher a more milder type.

I'm a girl and I have a brother that's older than me he's 14 and I'm his little sister! I can relate to this soooo much! Sometimes I don't get along with my autistic brother. We would have lots of painful fights but I still love him and look out for him❤️ me and my little sis would look out for my big brother !! 😭 I love my autistic brother. I don't want my brother to be normal. I just love the way he is ☺️ I almost lost my sister in a elevator. Me and my family was going in the elevator and my sister was out of the elevator when I first thought of my little sis in the elevator I screamed so hard. I tried to squeeze my self and open the elevator and I screamed my little sister name so hard. I grabbed her and she cried in my arms 😭 I cried too! Guys always watch out for your brothers and sisters! Sometimes you can have fights but that does not mean you hate the sibling. Love your siblings take care of your siblings! Your brother and sister would always be there for you! Even if you ha

[@sodiumchlorideguy6065]

God will bless you with a big reward in heaven if you keep being a brother like that. I may be an 11 year old kid , but I'm incredibly impressed! I bet everyone wants to be your brother now😊😊😊. Mad props to you for being so responsible. Edit: I remembered this wholesome video I watched from a long time ago, so I go looking for it and find an old comment of mine from 5 years ago. I'm almost 17 now, it's amazing how fast time flies. Mad props 😅

My brother has autism as well except hes two years younger than me. Hes an amazing kid although he does have angry outburst like many autistic kids do but i wouldn't trade him for any other sibling :) i got to say though i wish i could have a bond with my brother like you and your brother have. My brother is not able to carry any type of conversation and can only answer very simple yes or no question such as if he wants cake or ice cream type questions and can get angry and/or frustrated quickly but i hope with the help he is getting that his frustration level will go down :)

Hi Spencer! I loved your video. I have 3 older brothers with autism and it was amazing to hear and relate to someone else who knows exactly what I feel. The amount of love in your video made me cry. Thank you for sharing!

This was awesome!!! I have two sons (very similar) my oldest son has Autism and his younger brother sounds and acts just like you to do!! I love it...thank god you have each other and you always will. Great video :)

[@zed-_-9694]

This video is so amazing! Two of my older brothers (they're twins) have autism and they are the world to me. They cheer me up when I'm down and always know how to have a fun time. They can be a pain in the butt sometimes but everyone is. A lot of people don't understand what autism is and even some of my friends are judgemental towards them but I'll always love them. I'll always stick by their sides whether it'd be playing basketball or calming them down when they're sad or angry. I love them from the bottom of my heart and always will.

[@lauramarie8065]

Thank you so much for this video. you are an incredible brother and human. And you have brought tears of joy to my eyes. I have a 2 year old grandson with Autism and seeing you and your brother has really moved me and given me such hope. bless you

[@braynhilton5300]

Thanks to everyone taking their time to read this testimony on how my son was saved from Autism. He was diagnosed four years ago, and he's just 6, I have tried several treatments and medications, nothing was working out, this got me frustrated and depressed. I kept praying and finally God answered my prayers when someone from youtube introduced me to this doctor from his home country and gave me his contact details. I called and explained my son's condition after which I made an order for his herbal remedy, he asked for my address and the next day I got a tracking number for a parcel sent to me through DHL and after four days I received my order. It was a liquid herbal medicine and a letter containing the instructions on how to use the herbs, I called him again to confirm and the next morning I started giving my son the herbs as instructed and after one week I noticed great improvement on my son and I continued until the herbs got finished and everything lasted for just one month and now my son is totally free from Autism, he can now talk clearly, behave normally and has no more seizures. If you've been searching for a genuine solution for Autism, connect with this honest Doctor on Whats App + 2 3 4 8 0 7 7 6 8 3 1 0 9 or ( solutionhealinghome@gmail. com .

[@Chiwasshere]

To watch there face lights up and grab a book for you to read when you come to visit, is wonderful and i wouldn't trade it for anything!!! He was the the ring bearer at my wedding and kept having people in family tell me he wouldn't do it run around or mess up and i never had a doubt he would mess up and he did GREAT stood still when he need and walked down when he was suppose too. All he need was faith and the belief that he could do it. Thank you for sharing with us the special bond you and your brother have it's unbreakable!!!

My twin brother is autistic, my mom had the chickenpox while pregnant with my brother and I. We both almost died the day we were born because we didn't have enough oxygen. I love my brother to death even though they can be difficult to try and understand at tines because its harf for them to explain things. Every autism is different. My brother has trouble talking and learning. And he sure knows when to help someone out. Once when I was in Highschool, this girl came uo to me and said I was talking shit, I knew her and I thought we were cool. I had no clue what she was even talking about, I tried to avoid her but she hit me. I'm not gonna let anyone hit me and I hit her and we started to fight. My brother some how knew that was me from a distance because I know where he stands after school. He ran and yelled my name, and he grabbed me and that was the end of it. Happy to say I beat that misunderstood bitch.

Hmmm I had chicken pox whilst pregnant with my autistic son, I wonder if there is a link between this

[@RachelSerzy]

Jen Daniels I do too, I looked it up and it says if you have chickenpox on your first trimester of pregnancy, the baby will be safer as in normal I guess. When your about 1 month away from expecting there's a chance of, disabilities, problems with the eyes, and 40% chance of death. If you have the chickenpox while having your baby there is a big chance of your baby dying. Hope that helps you out, and makes more sence for you, as it did for me

[@LivingWithPurpose237]

I have a younger brother who is severely autistic and nonverbal. When you said, “He is the most important person to me. I will always protect him and he is my brother,” I felt that. I will always care for my brother and love him with all of my heart. Woe to the person who ever tries to harm him, because they will have to go through me first. He is the biggest blessing in my life and my best friend and I simply cannot imagine life without him, nor do I ever even want to try. He makes the sun shine in my world and makes every day a little brighter. My brother also loves Disney movies.

[@ill-never-forget-you]

I just found out today, that my nephew might have Autism. Because he's showing signs of it :/

[@nunyabiznez6381]

+Autumn Jenkins Only a professional can correctly diagnose Autism. However, there a signs that indicate that it would be appropriate to see a professional. I'm 55 years old and discovered three years ago that I had Asperger's. Early diagnosis is a definite advantage. If your nephew has autism he will need as much support and patience as the people around him can offer. People with autism or ASD are wired differently, sometimes to the point where they feel like they live on an alien planet surrounded by aliens who communicate oddly. As much as one may wish to force someone with ASD learn to communicate "normally" it is often more useful to attempt to learn their language.

[@bittydoow]

My 3 year old Nephew has Autism, when I first found out I was extremely anger, I didn't know what to say or think, I wouldn't even want to talk or be around my brother or his girlfriend the mother of my nephew, I wanted to blame someone, but there was no one to blame. to this day I still feel that anger, knowing my best friend has a perfectly normal nephew, and i don't but I try not to think about it, because my nephew seems like a normal child, he just doesn't really speak.

[@kathleenburke3984]

+Autumn Jenkins Hi Autimn, I know it's a tricky time when waiting for a diagnosis. I wanted to let you know about a resource that might help; It's called Z is for Zip- I mentioned it in another comment on this video but wanted to send it to you directly. It's almost a "text book" that describes all the basic behaviors of autism and why they are such wonderful and important people in our world.

Absolutely beautiful! I am in tears! My 10 yr old was just diagnosed with Level 1 ASD, along with ADHD and Anxiety last Spring. He is higher functioning than your brother and it was a bit harder to spot but we knew early on something was up. I love how you show they are so special and can teach us many things! I just wish more people could see it like his peers! Bless you and your brother! 💗

[@LifeplusLaura]

This is so unbelievably touching. Thanks for sharing.

[@David-ld3ts]

That's the whole message of this video right there. You hit the nail on the head.

[@MrAdaj76]

My 6 year little bro has autism it's fun he's always happy and stuff

[@xristosmlhds12345]

+MrAdaj76 my brother has autism too but he isnt always happy

[@brandonnielsen4183]

Beautiful video. Your bond is exactly what I want for my son and his brothers. Thank you

[@chloerayn]

I’m in tears!! I look up videos like this to see that I’m not the only one in the world who goes through having a sibling with Autism. I am uplifted by your attitude towards your brother and I aspire to only think positively about mine !

[@taylorswiftie132]

My brother is 10 and her has autism. I love him to death. He can memorise spongebob scripts off by heart and he's incredibly intelligent. I imagine how hard life could be for autistics and I would give anything to end this "disease"

[@SoVerySinuous]

Trust me mate, we don't want to be cured, the idea of people actively looking for a "cure" actually sickens us.

[@jpskyly7087]

If your brother didn't have autism, he would not be your brother. Trust me. I put deep thoughts in that stuff. My almost eight year old brother and one of my best friends BOTH have autism

[@TheImpures]

So Very Sinuous lol what? not everyone thinks like you.

[@SoVerySinuous]

The majority of us don't want to be "cured".

[@TheImpures]

So Very Sinuous No offense but you don't represent them, nor you know "all" of them. Either way, there's different types of autism.

[@ManjarithePandicorn]

Your brother is the sweetest. This breaks my heart because i wish i could be as good of a person as your brother is

[@rose-yi4ez]

This is so touching, and it made me really happy. Thank you!

[@brucewayne8955]

You should roll your bro a joint.

[@Fizer005]

dont i just saw the vice report on atistic kid who got sent to jail he might get tricked into telling da popo about it :o

[@10colej]

HAHA yes

[@dhanajon5528]

i thought autistic people don't like being hugged/touch.

[@SpencerTimme]

+Maple Strip Mitchel likes the feeling of pressure so he LOVES hugs :)

[@lionemoji4756]

It's different for everyone.

[@Ineptatpiano]

+Your boy Ed boy it's much easier over time, from people you are comfortable with, and especially when you know it is coming

[@hodgeyfitness6058]

+Syntax I have autism and I don't like to be hugged by people I'm close to but with the people I want to be close to I want to be hugged by we see the world different to others

[@JamarfromAfar]

some don't, everyone with autism shows different symptoms, so each case is different

[@kellys.5908]

Great video! You can tell how wonderful you two were raised. Even tho every person who has autism may not be exactly like your brother, but your meaning was very well understood. Great video & thank you for sharing!

[@Discoveringrid]
