Paul, have you ever tried taking hot baths at night? Worked great, when I had a bath tub♡

“Rare as rocking horse poo” 🤣🤣🤣 challenge accepted … not sure who’s gonna want a giant rocking poop with handles and seat but if it’s rare it must be worth creation … coated in low temp melting brown wax so it authentically leaves a smear … infused with essence from that poop smelling flower … handles of improperly chewed nuts (I know horses don’t eat nuts, usually) … Thanks for the mind bender 🤪🙏😇 Leave that bad boy in the rich part of town and watch how many prunes wreck their clothes trying to steal it before giving up in disgust 🤭

These 2 videos I found more helpful than 99% of videos by autistic creators 🤷‍♂️ less explaining of perspectives or the why and more stating actions and the cause. Such as, you say I pooped because I needed too whereas others speak of the wiping of their bum to limit discomfort perceived in others yet ignore the original discomfort of needing to poop which first must happen prior to the wiping 💩

Thank you for keeping it real.... I'm 48 and my life has been absofukinlutley a nitemare since i was a teenager.... I've lost my whole family that I urned for as an only child with just my mom.... so yes we all have our own unique story and I would love to be able to share it sometime.... it just mite help somebody else, even if only 1.....

Oh my goodness, it was quite a shock to find that there is someone out there that has similar thoughts and issues to me. For all of my life I have felt like I have been living in some bizarre parallel universe. I recently had to attend this work dinner and I almost had a panic attack at the thought of having to deal with their boring conversations and stupid questions.

Bringing the cooked food to your door is a valued SERVICE, buddy. 😉

I became an IT consultant, works for me. I go in do a job, miss most politics and move onto the next one

I reveiced my diagnosis a couple years ago.. a very quick history, my friends psychiatrist wife suggested I get assessed, I was so cynical and agreed to really prove a point, what a backfire. Long story I was diagnosed ASD Level 2, and similar to the video is was not in any way cathartic. It is a logical fallacy to think an official diagnosis changes anything and in the world we live in which is systemically a charade controlled by non autistic fools, I refuse to use the neuro typical non sequitur. Autism has avoidance built in, it is a feature not a bug.

My springer’s called Brock. I may send some photos of the dog over the Xmas break 👍🏻

Hi Paul. Regarding the reflux issue, if you haven’t been assessed for a hiatal hernia it may be worth a mention to your doctor. Odds of occurrence increases with age. Been dealing with this for the last half decade and now requires extra management beyond otc medication.

I always checked that box also. But I only order from pizza places I will not order from grub hub I don’t trust what they have touched my food and I biggest pet peeve is people who don’t wash their hands after using the toilet

When I made the effort to put myself first I ended up pushing everyone out of my life, absolutely everybody left (except for my dad and my grandma). Then I didn't have anyone to put expectations on me, I could unmask without any pressure, and eventually managed to find a few new people who accept who I am. It was an absolutely miserable five years of that but it was worth it.

Thank you so much for posting this - my Aunt Kathy was the most supportive person I had through everything, especially when my immediate family refused to be. She passed in 2021, and her birthday was the day before mine, we always celebrated our birthdays by having dinner together. Our birthdays were the last two days and I have been actively grieving as if it just happened for about a month leading up to our birthdays. The pain hasn't dulled and hasn't changed, I think about her literally every day. The rest of my family is not the same, and so it was good to hear someone else say that it doesn't go away for them either, although I am sad that you are still grieving. I do feel a little more ... IDK, okay with the fact that I still feel her loss so intensely now. Anyway, thank you. I'm so sorry you lost your friend.

After being diagnosed AuDHD earlier this year I decided to join a couple of communities on Facebook and discovered lots of Americans “self diagnosed” and people just take their word for it. I couldn’t do that one because of imposter syndrome and two because I can’t get past them not having a professional opinion or testimonies from people they’ve known at different stages in their life. It’s my understanding autism has to be shown as being present from birth, but they don’t recognise that as a requirement, how does everyone else feel? Ps I left the group after being subjected to dogs abuse off angry and aggressive LGBT American women who accused me of “ being a gatekeeper” and attempting to “Gaslight” me.

Responding atypically to medications is an autism thing, very unfortunate as on paper there should be quite a few that could really help us out. Antidepressant made me feel all sorts of weird, anti-anxiety meds worked for a while but quite quickly made me feel more depressed and vegetable like. The only thing that ever worked for me and I've stuck with since I was 19 is cannabis. Helps a lot with calming the ADHD mind, sleep issues, stomach issues and general feelings of anxiety. Even just CBD is helpful and gives me no side effects, I prefer regular weed a getting high a bit but it isn't necessary to help function. I used to have a lot of random pains as well, they went away during covid when I stopped being forced to spend 2-3h on pubilc transport to commute to my noisy office workplace. I used to think they were injuries from running, but now (years later) I'm thinking it was just a manifesation of the daily stress and anxiety I had to endure just getting to and being at work. Now that I'm fully remote I don't get them much anymore, except for those times where it all starts gong wrong at the same time. It feels like inflammation that's in my head and in my body.

Wishing you a great Xmas bud have a good one ....

I am traumatized. I lost my ability to read quite suddenly. Now I'm 53. No education. Just trying. I help people understand my trade. They are grateful. Life is good. No family, yard, fence, dog... I missed all that. No regrets. Traveling in my own lane, at my own pace.

I was once given the advice, 'Change your chip'. My silent response was, 'uh....'

I've been trying to tell this to my kid, age 24. I wanted it on paper to set up a special needs trust fund, services they don't use but might need some day, medical coverage, disability insurance, but the more I try to convenience them , why it is good for them, the more they fight me on it.

Hi mate. Fellow autistic from Wythenshawe here. Hope you’re ok pal. 👍🏻🎄🎅🏻

I didn't see the one earlier I've been wondering where you'd got to. Glad to see you're alive and well 😂 I'll have to watch them the wrong way round now. Watching from Selhurst near the crystal palace football ground.

Now I Cornwall Ontario but born in Littleborough, Lancashire - have you ever been there?

Radio rammstien

Ah what is your favorite sci fi holiday movie😊

Writing from Trinidad 🇹🇹 I was diagnosed last year while I was in Portugal and returned home to Trinidad. I have set boundaries from learning my nature and now I am spending Christmas alone 😂 hahaha! Merry Christmas Paul

Hello from Virginia USA. First Christmas with an autism diagnosis at 44. Your content has really been helpful for me. Thanks for all that you do!

You don’t need meds from big pharma you need God

I had no idea you were doing this live. Missed it

It's hard to do, but you just have to be you, and anyone who isn't OK with that doesn't need to be in your life.

I missed the live as I am in Montana. Thank you for helping us all get to know we are all okay being who we are.

Thankyou for sharing, I relate to so much of what you say and I appreciate this so much right now. I’m watching this from Australia after waking up with anxiety. Fun times! I am sorry you have been having a rough time and I hope that you get some much needed rest.

Hi Paul. Great Live Video. You're doing alright. All the best to your mum. Hope you, yourself feel better soon. Most of us are in the maintenance years now. Only thing i changed the last eight years now, is my food consumption, along with a multivitamin and algae omega3. Our body ultimately reacts to what we consume. I consume a plant based consumption. Plant based meats and plant based dairy products. Thats what have made my body feel normal again. I'm not having a go. I'm just scaring my experiences. Take it or leave it, sort of deal. Well. I hope everyone gets through the holidays in the best way possible. Best wishes and greetings to everyone. Cheers.

Hi Paul, nice to see/ hear you.

One of the most exhaustive things for me is having to preface myself with every little thing I say because of a trend of being lambasted by misunderstandings. Even with my best intentions and Olympic level training to not come across rude- I always say something and it’s perceived in the worst light possible. This reason alone is enough to make me exhausted by social interactions and relationships. I think I’m communicating fine, but really I’m fine tuning the art of self-alienation. Luckily enough, by some miracle force outside of my comprehension, I found some good people that enjoy me despite all that and actually find my “out of pocket commentary” a joy. Now I’ve earned the award of being a comedian; I unironically have to tell them it’s my AuDHD rizz that is able to present itself cause they’re so accepting of my nature. The mask slips a little more and I feel a sense of security that I don’t generally get to have around others. It took 33 years to find a tribe of my own. Socializing with them is a lot easier than anyone else. It’s amazing how being embraced can make it a little easier to genuinely be yourself. Otherwise it’s just difficult, difficult, lemon difficult.

That was a great live feed! Cheers. Merry Christmas

Psychologists theorize that adult autism is fundamentally rooted in severe major-depressive disorder. Major-depressive disorder is a main contributor to suicide. A diagnosis of adult autism by medical professionals should not end at just the diagnosis. It should be the beginning of treatment for a person who may be on the verge of suicide. Very sad. It seems many people are suffering.

great live watch mate , nice to see u back

Your mental health may have suffered, but your beard is looking excellent.

Much appreciated thank you

merry christmas and all the ease you seek

It was good to see you today. So much of what you say resonates with me.

I really enjoyed the live and the live chat with everyone. Thank you and have a great Xmas doing or not doing anything you want😊

I'm English, got my diagnosis for autism and add in Sweden. It was quite a simple process to be honest. Took a few years to get it but once the process started, it only took a month. There was some messing about behind the scenes but fortunately I didn't have to pay for it. Now that I have it, I feel lost. I have the feeling that they concentrate on the younger kids and that I've made it this far, I should be ok. Well, I'm not... 🤷🏻

I've been bothered for years by an eye twitch. Others can't see it, I guess it's quite small,, but it feels to me like it's much more pronounced. It's very annoying. I've heard other autistic people talk about health problems where the doctor's diagnosis has been " stress" and that's been the case for me as well all throughout my life.

thank you paul

Thanks so much for doing a live.

Hi, Paul. Good to see you. I hope you make it through the holidays without too much trouble.

Eh! I'm so ashamed that i pale in comparison to the claims of others. Or maybe their full of shit! For me, I've struggled with intimacy. I hate it. It's akward. Analysis Paralysis kicks in. Here comes awkwardness.

Miserably hot all the time. I can remember crying as a child and in my teens about the heat. Only in Winter and right before bed do I feel cold or cool.
