I don’t get as much sensory overload to some autistic people. The main thing I want to let EMS know is as friendly as possible. It’ll help me calm down from the situation. Because I’ve been in three ambulances in one year and let me tell you when both the medics EMS staff were being cool with me and being really And supportive and joking around a little bit with me and being just generally very approachable type of people it was much better and by the way I can as you can tell I’m writing this comment and I’m using text to speech because I can’t type or write very well but you can talk to me like a normal person. Just be a little bit extra friendly because I’m in an emergency type of situation and so being friendly and approachable and hospitable is very important.

I’m autistic and I actually like the sound of sirens for the most part. I’m a bit of a siren critic, though in terms of which Sirens I think are effective in which aren’t.

Great job everyone ( Mariah you are beautiful my love)

Fantastic job everyone 🎉🎉

Great job Ondrea 👏

This was a well-prepared and honest video. Ariana, you did a beautiful job explaining everything in this video three years ago. That means a lot!

Wow, what an excellent video to understand this condition of the Autism Spectrum

This seems like you are just telling them the same shit you ask anyone else unless everyone is autistic

Autistic drivers I didn't know they can do that. Hope that I don't need more than thirty seconds to stop at a red light

July 15, 2024 -- Excellent video -- Only constructive feedback: Would have been better if the back flashing lights could have been turned off or covered. I believe the first example of the care taker was over exaggerated -- no care giver should show so much distress in voice and body language while assuring the child or person verbally that "everything is okay"

Obrigado pelo video.

The overwhelming first one legit scared me

This is a great training video thank you for putting this together and making it available!

Por favor no he podido enviar mi correo

Excelente Educadora Miny Ortiz gracias por enseñarnos tanto felicitacion

Obrigado pelo vídeo.

Love and miss you cousin.

Well put together thank you!

Thank you for putting this together

I have been looking for a ems focused short training video thank you for this!

Your prejudices are contradicting themselves. "Autism is only about kids, of course they couldn't drive." Never tell a cop you have autism. They will use any accidental training in difficulties with stimuli to torture the person. The autistic have the same problem with teachers. ------------- Autism is an abstract disability. The most dangerous mental illness in society today is Authoritarian disorder. ------- Other topic, you misused the term "first responder." That is an EMT in a small town far away from the county seat. This is needed when it will take an hour for the ambulance to arrive. The term you are looking for is emergency services.

Notice your use of the pronouns. You consider the autistic to be subhuman. This is why we have a national problem with cops who think it is fun to kill them. What we need to do is train people with Autism as EMTs. Abelists aren't qualified. They are fixated with stereotypes. "Decrease language?" Autism is not about low IQ. That would just make the situation worse.

This was highly awkward. Neither person in this video seemed like a human or have human traits. Didn't seem inviting or well thought out. Maybe a study group should review future content or training videos.

Thank you very much.

Subtext: Only escalate to shooting someone during a traffic stop if they do dangerous things, like sneeze wrong.

Good video. May I add that "they are not challenging your authority" is an important one for all cops, whether dealing with autistic or nonautistic folk. You are someone at work, with a duty a d a fricking gun on your hip. If someone were to question or challenge your authority, I hope you are responsible and confident enough to not let yourself get sucked into a powerfight with someone you are trying to help. If you feel your blood boiling when a person laughs at your remark, you need to talk about that to someone. Because sure, everyone is a person with human feelings, but you are a person with a weapon and (too much) protection from the law behind you and I hope to god that you realise that you have a massive responsibility to keep everyone safe with every step you take.

Great video. Thank you for getting the word out about the ways this affects people. Should be mandatory viewing in all departments.

You are gorgeous!

Missing points Sensory noise - can the child be in control of the noise, for example a vacuum - even at four years old they can be very detailed about the job. At 69 I still cringe at the sound if someone else is doing it... I used to run out the door until mother figured that I could do it. Boundaries - depending on the child you may be able to set boundaries of where they can go on their own. First Responders - inform them about ASD and ADHD type - knowing this alters the types of areas and locations to search - spent an hour looking for a child on a ski hill then the teacher mentioned he was autistic, two minutes later we found him.

Wishing you all the best of luck with your initiatives 🌻

I don't know exactly what Darrell Garrett meant by his comment, but if this woman is autistic she knows the law verbatim better than many other officers on camera on duty in the field and I would rather deal with her calm cool and collected demeanor than an overly emotional rageaholic who is angry because they're on duty and have no rageahol and take it out on the taxpaying public.

Should an Autistic person be a police officer? I 100% understand the message this project is trying to put out in the world. But do I believe a person diagnosed with autism should be in charge of managing the law or helping to keep the peace? I'm not sorry and NO.

You are so strong 💕😘.

Why not wear a bracelet or have the condition marked on the drivers license?

Great Initiative!

FIRST/THEN Boards are so helpful in classroom settings. Thanks for the clear description in this video 👍

Hi. My granddaughter who is 11 is just going through the diagnosis process for autism. I was shocked when I learnt. My grand daughter always seemed very bright and had no language problem. She was very shy but so were my children and so was I. She does have a problem with friendship. She isn’t a naughty although she does have moments. I suppose the trait of autism I have notice all her things have to be in a certain position and nobody is allow to touch them. She does have an aversion to noise. And if the class is told off as a whole she gets really upset as if it is her that is personally being told off. I suppose her biggest problem it takes her far longer to complete a task than her peers. She has beautiful handwriting and that has to be perfect. If she makes a mistake she would prefer to start again instead of crossing out the error. That can be when she has a melt down. Of course lockdown didn’t help.

Thank you for this beautiful and eloquent presentation. Greetings from MA.

So very helpful, thank you!!!

You have to use all the ableism talk it's rather cruel and mean.

I don't use the word aggressive behavior with autistic people it's better to say reactionary to something and then I apologize for not seeing it.

Use different names than just Joe we know a lot of Joe's and it's not quite right to do it that way

The majority of the autistic people in the communities I have been in prefer autistic people not with autism because that sounds like you can get rid of it and then that leads you down the road of eugenics.

💜💜😻 omg I love this your awesome. Can you do a channel Arianna I love listening to you.

I definitely appreciate all the information, and maybe it’s just me being picky, but it felt like that girl wasn’t really given the means to properly communicate that the sun hurt her eyes? I’m sorry if I missed something (Autism and ADHD combined is fun)

I truly appreciate your continuing development of your understanding of autism. As an adult that went undiagnosed and neglected for 30 years, I'd like to add my 2 cents for what it's worth. The spectrum concept is problematic at times, especially when depicted as linear. It is more of a color wheel with each autistic individual having a unique fingerprint of characteristics. For example, I would be considered level 1 or low on the linear spectrum by most due to my verbal skills and really effective masking, but my internal struggle and really poor executive functioning is more akin to a level 3. Just because I can communicate verbally and in an eloquent manner doesn't mean my brain tells me when I should seek support or that the light is bothering me. So there is a lot of internal chaos and struggle no on can perceive. I really think it's important to be aware that it isn't mild to severe, it's that some traits have lower support needs while others may have higher support needs. I burned out and can barely function now because I was categorized as "gifted" and put on a pedestal and I've pushed myself to a breaking point and I can no longer mask and fake it. So I just wanted to put this out there because the general population tends to interact with people like me for 30 seconds and determine that we cannot possible be on the spectrum. Again, thank you for your sharing and spreading of knowledge and mindfulness.

Sounds definitely like me since I’m definitely unique and different in both a positive and also a negative way

1:55 there's a third category... in which either is fine. Source: Am in that 3rd category

This is an incredible talk/presentation. 🙏🏼
