I just got a job week ago in a grocery store. Finally after 6 months of looking for one and the boss was okay with the fact that I have Asperger’s. He said that my memory, speed and positive additude are great benefits to keep a great atmosphere. Working at a store has always been my dream job since I was 16. It’s so fun to put products at the shelves and speaking to customers and helping them is really rewarding. Plus costumer service is actually good for my health since it helps with my social anxiety and makes my mood better.

happy for you, and sounds like a good and understanding boss, its important that people looke behind the surface and not always thing the worst of people (like seems so common these days.)
Punk rock and Hardcore is what helped me fight My Asperger's a little bit. The culture is so diverse and accepting. You never know who you're going to meet but everyone is happy to see you. Everyone is there to have a good time and share our pain.
I had enough counseling when I was young to know that it doesn't really do much for me. Self-searching does more, for me. The thing that really really REALLY helped me was going to a special school at age 11-15ish. I know that's not a helpful tip for adults, but for parents... if your kid is isolated, shunned, punished and ignored in school, they're not going to be able to develop social skills or skills to regulate their behavior. If they're put in smaller classes with other autistic kids who don't just dismiss them, and teachers who help them work through their behavioral problems instead of just suspending them, then they're going to be able to learn how to communicate with others and regulate their own behavior. It was amazing how I was able to change once I could see the consequences of my actions in an environment where I wasn't just treated like a rabid animal that's totally outside the spectrum of acceptable behavior.
I have high functioning autism, depression and anxiety disorder. I take meds for the depression and go to therapy twice a month. Works pretty well so far.👍. Thanks for the video.

I was diagnosed with aspergers around 2 years ago when I was about 17 and I finally started doing research about it and your channel has really made me feel comfortable with who I am and really makes me feel happy and confident keep it up best of luck to you never give you man!
i am a 38 y/o female and have slipped through the cracks and misdiagnosed my whole entire life (from age 8 to this past year).. regardless of the fact that my little brother had a diagnosis, and my mother was later diagnosed as an adult.. PLEASE people - do NOT let ANYONE misdiagnose your children! i am a suicide survivor bc i was placed on anti-depressants, which ultimately threw my brain out of sorts.. i've been forcefully locked away so many times (10 times from age 14 to age 28) in psych wards for disorders i didn't have.. growing up being told you're ""smart but lazy" and everyone around you comparing their anxiety to your autism is so damaging.. i am just now trying to sort this all out. thank you for the video..
I am I a fairly new relationship with an aspire guy, but to my advantage, I have a 13 Yr old son with autism, ADHD, OCD and ODD and a 5 Yr old with aspergers, ADHD OCD ODD and anxiety. So it's second nature to in that aspie world and of anything, it's made relationship even better because he knows I understand him and u know he understands my kids sometimes better than I do at times. Love watching your videos and learning more x Becki (PS, I'm in North Wales also)
I'm here because I just realized yesterday that I have Asperger's...and I'm trying to look for ways to treat it because I desperately want to hope that things can get better for me.
I’m 47, female from uk. Just been diagnosed with Aspergers and waiting for my ADHD assessment to be done. Still struggling with life in general and bogged down with what/when/how/who etc so love this channel ty Dan x
How do you get diagnosed here?Apparently it's a lot harder to get diagnosed in the UK because Aspergers isn't actually considered a mental illness/issue anymore since like 2013 I believe.

I haven't officially received the word yet, but I'm pretty sure aspergers is what makes me, me. Constantly over analyzing, reading into things to deeply, being told to "calm down" or "sit still," loosing 6 hours in a project, and feeling out of touch with the rest of humanity. I want to communicate, I talk constantly while I feel like everything I say goes right over other people's heads, if they are actually paying attention at all. Every day is building Rome in a day, or just giving up and going back to bed. I don't know?
A friend told me I had some aspergers apparent traits. Now, since I have started investigating about it (especially finding your channel) I feel pretty sure I have aspergers, love your videos man, they have been very helpful for someone like me. I will be making an appointment with my primary dr soon. ✌

This channel is great. In November I was diagnosed with stage 3 oral cancer, got 50% my tongue removed reconstructed, had radiotherapy, been recovering from that healing my self with cannabis and stem cell therapy but recently I found a paper on living with a undiagnosed ASD partner and it read like my life but so much made sense. Your videos are really helping me understand myself better each day, thank you so much!
I've been following you since my son was diagnosed ADHD & then further diagnosed on the spectrum ASD towards the high functioning side. I believe it is Asperger's but the DSM changed and now it's all ASD🤷♀️🤦 It was a nightmare before the Autism diagnosis; but then it ALL finally made sense ❣️ We're still struggling but it's SO much clearer now, like all the pieces of the puzzle finally came together! THE WORLD NEEDS MORE AWARENESS REGARDING ASD, THANKS FOR HELPING ❣️❣️❣️
I was diagnosed with Aspergers before the whole ASD switch. However I still refer to my self as an Aspie. I’m also physically disabled. I shattered my back 4 years ago and am now permanently disabled. I was able to find what makes me happy and am now enjoying the happiest I’ve ever been. I love your channel, I even have your “Keep being awesome” hat! It’s my favorite hat and unfortunately you stopped selling them. I wish I would have bought 5 of them. It’s become an item that I can’t leave my house without. Thank you for being such a great representative of our community! I can’t tell you how many people I’ve referred to your channel and how many videos of yours that I’ve used to try to explain me.
I found that Being Surrounded by other people your own age who don't have aspergers can be beneficial. I TrIed being more observant of their behavior in social settings, really helped me alot when I was younger, and I'm alot better now than I was but I still exhibit traits of aspergers in my mid 20's.
I'm a parent, I come here to better understand the challenges my adult son faces in his life. He has Autism Spectrum Disorder - (Aspergers, when diagnosed) and Non-verbal Learning Disability, (which affects his ability to process and understand non-verbal forms of communication such as tone of voice, facial expression, and body language.) The insights I learn from watching your channel have been beneficial in opening conversations where he has struggled to be able to explain as clearly as he would like. He can be very sensitive about having this diagnosis. I have managed to get him to watch this video and he's seriously interested in the relaxation therapy! I hope he will consider occupational therapy as well, as he often struggles with spacial differences and spills are a daily frustration for him. He is very hard on himself and I am hoping that in time, he can turn that around and use that ability to scrutinize for something more beneficial. It is my hope that he will continue to watch your channel and discuss his thoughts with me, so I can continue to support him in an informed and more directed way. I've learned so much from him and from you here. Keep up the great work Dan!
I'm a parent and found your video really helpful. Most others talk 'about' asperger's and acceptance. Hard to find some that help the pains and struggles. Obviously it is better to work with Improvement when there is lest pain and distress. So how to reduce discomfort and distress in helpful ways is key. Thanks
I am actually being diagnosed with Asperger defo on the spectrum with adhd and gifted I didn’t finish my diagnostic cause my Asperger got me confused so needed to step back a little bit to educate myself and love your vidéo they are such a great support it took me time to understand how it has affected my childhood and my life today I am just a little bit worried about medical treatment… but I am not there yet !
Diagnosed in October 2019 just before my 32rd birthday 😕 only worked it out in February and I totally agree some councillors are great for talking through where your at and trying to unpick everything until it makes sense. I'm so grateful I was with a councillor I trusted prior and after I was diagnosed it helped alot to process part of what it meant to me, how life effects me personally and how I cope with it. Thanks for your work Dan you've helped me along the way alot ☺️ Yet I've missed about the acoustic therapy 😲 I've been saying for years I want to be able to sit on a mat and feel music and this sounds soooo close
My boyfriend of 12 years can be very invalidating because he zones in to the things he likes, doesn't understand why I want compliments, fidgets a lot, doesn't make eye contact, only has online friends, etcetera. On top of this, I'm Bipolar I so his lack of engagement has driven me nuts and turned into terrible arguments more times than I can count. He does not have a formal diagnosis but I let loose on my psychiatrist about this and she asked me the family member version of screening questions for Aspberger's Syndrome. He matched up almost perfectly even though I was in denial. I know he will not see a therapist on his own because he thinks he's totally fine. But now that this has become pretty much a reality for me (I have not told him), I'm looking all over for support. I don't talk down to my AS friends but I find myself doing it to him. I'm so worried that we'll fight again over me misunderstanding something or that he'll have a melt down (I have them too, just differently). I feel on eggshells here. I'm talking to my own therapist Monday to see what I can do to process this in a healthy way for both of us. I've already told him that I support him and that many of his tics and habits are something I will just have to accept. He shrugged like always and I accepted that as an affirmative. He's a sweet, fun guy. I did try to move on from him but couldn't. I don't want to. Knowing now what he's experiencing and learning more about it isn't going to change him but it absolutely will change how I handle myself in the situations that crop up. Thank you so much for these videos. I'm so grateful to the mental health community already for the support I've received for my BPD and this is just another amazing resource. Apologies for this becoming an essay. I'm currently hypomanic lol
Don't feel bad I'm pretty sure I have Asperger's and started looking into it recently.my gf of 12 years always was at the blunt end of things (I'm very honest) she asks does she look fat and I will agree .... She asked right? I don't get social cues,I don't understand how to make friends in real life or what the social norm is I have friends online I can speak to but face to face I clam up. Best advice I could give is the sweeter you are to him the sweeter he will be back smile and try and be close to him so he doesn't have to try and read the social cues we just don't understand them! I did tell my gf I think I have Asperger's and she said it explains alot but she's started being more affectionate towards me because I struggle with social cues and just think she's always pissed off at me or had a bad day. Hope I helped a little bit and good luck
Parent whom believes Asperger's runs on the female side of my family. 2 of my girls as well as myself are clearly described in many of the Asperger's vids. From eye contact to foods, sleep, mental health, and so much more. Thank you for sharing and helping us all.
Hi, I love following you and so appreciate the awareness you bring to this topic. I was a classroom teacher and now tutor Learning Differences. My Hubby has Aspergers and is an inventor. We developed a sound device that works awesome for the sensory stuff you have mentioned in this video. It is kinda a combo of the music bed thing you mentioned here and the sensory exercises. Could I send you some info and possibly one to give a try? Again thanks so much for bringing awareness to these subjects.🙏🏻💕
Lucky you, I was 18 when I was diagnosed and spent my whole schooling in mainstream being bullied and abused. I really wish I'd have been diagnosed earlier and homeschooled but at least I have a passion for teaching and spreading disability awareness.
0 Seven many on the spectrum who have been mainstreamed have been fine hopefully he gets good marks when he graduates what does he wanna be when he grows up?
I worked as a teacher's assistant for our special education department for four years. Honestly, the children with autism of different levels were so wonderful to work with. I was assigned specifically to one child for a while because her anxiety was so bad that she needed one-on-one attention. I loved working with her and helping her to stay occupied and calm. I hope you were treated well. Fortunately for my students (but not for me), I was not treated well when I dealt with mental health issues as a child. I was able to learn from the mistakes the adults around me made and to pass that understanding on to my students. I hope you are well and that you had at least some good experiences in school.
My Granddaughter is now 19 and suffers from anxiety and depression and is on meds for that. From school documents, they think she has some autism traits. Recently she lost her mother who was a very smart woman, who went to college. So a hard act to follow, she just started in hairdressing school, and already is falling behind. She is also dyslexic and so reading the textbooks is a real challenge for her, and although I was very open in the consultation process to let them know her issues they are not accommodating her as apparently they are duty bound to do. By the way, we are in Canada. She came home today crying, and saying she is failing some tests, already, and I am trying to let her make up her own mind about what she should do. Give up now, or try to keep going, She has a long day with travel 7am til 6pm then homework to do. I did get her a Counsellor but she didn't want to talk to him, and so I just don't know what to do now. I have Googled my area and no Autism help around. I don't know what to do to help her, she is very uptight, and can be loud and comes across as rude sometimes but the school does not accept that kind of attitude to their staff which I can see, but where do we go from here? I am a senior with no other family, and now I have inherited 2 Teenagers the other one had also depression anxiety and ADHD so I am overwhelmed and need help getting them through this. I have a Dr that says the school reports are old so he kind of dismissed what they had to say, so that was a letdown for moving forward as well. Anyway, just needed to get this off my mind today and will be following you to see if I can pick up some tips to help me along and cope. Can you make this that only you see it?
💜Thank you well I’m in my early 40s and I barely found out I have Asperger‘s which makes completely sense for me but I was diagnosed in the early 2000 and then again later on six years ago and then again six years after that but the records and diagnosis were always hidden from me until now but before then I’ve been diagnosed with OCD, anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADHD, and, dyslexia and also, my son is on the spectrum so I just come here because I wanna understand and most days I feel lost and it’s a struggle so maybe I can find some support here on your channel
one the best thing is to exercise every day .don't go to bed late and put the alarm to get up . try hard to fight your symptoms the best you can and hide the ones that you can , life is hard and cruel
I'm getting evaluated for ADHD in two weeks and autism hopefully later this year. My therapist and I bost suspect that I have ADHD and that I am on the autism spectrum. I am a 20 year old uni student from Germany :) For me personally psycho therapy and sport currently help me a lot. I look forward to getting occupational therapy after being diagnosed. I am very lucky to live I Germany so my therapy and all the appointments are covered by my insurance.

I am in America in Philadelphia more specifically (incase anyone wants to know) and I could not find occupational therapy, which in Philadelphia we have come of the best hospitals and medical services in the world. I could not find a provider for adults with ASD. I even looked out of state. Delaware had a place willing to do an evaluation, but because it was out if state insurance wouldn't pay. I am excited for your OT video!
I am outside of Philly but close enough to travel there. I know what you mean. It took until I was 30 to be diagnosed with autism and adhd. I am in Delaware County if you are wondering. I wonder if you can go out of the county for therapy. I'm sure there's something like that for your insurance but I'm not entirely sure. I guess it depends.
@@hikariwaifu2313 Oh hey fellow Pennsylvanian. I was diasgnosed at 31, but it's not officially official. My psychiatrist did the evaluation because the 2 places in Philly had crazy waiting lists and is fees upwards of 2000$. I have medicaid and going out of county is always difficult. There is no guarantee I could get reimbursement or get an exception and have them cover it. I found a lace in Delaware that will do OT for sensory processing disorder in adults, but it was no go with my insurance. I can't complain too much though medicaid is very good about covering things and providers as long as it's in county.
Diagnosed year before, 2018, getting the official call that I had Autism Level 1 exactly a week after my birthday. So I'll always remember I was 36 for a week before I found out. I've also previously been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder Type 1 with Psychosis, which kept me from getting other diagnoses until that was under control. It masked a lot of other symptoms. Once quarantine is over, they're going to have me tested for ADHD as well. ^^; I've been seeing a therapist and psychiatrist for my bipolar diagnosis for a long time, and currently see my therapist once a week via video chat. While my previous therapist was mostly cognitive behavioral therapy, my new therapist focuses on dialectical behavioral therapy. Basically as I have issues with things and react poorly or meltdown because of stressors, we work on how to cope with the stressors and find ways to deal with them before I completely break down. A lot of it is mindfulness and finding solutions to things like anxiety. Recently we've been working on the TIPP skills. Temperature, Intense Exercise, Paced Breathing, and Paired Muscle Relaxation. Temperature is good when approaching a panic attack because you can use ice or cold water on your face and it kinda resets you so you can think enough to either distract or remove yourself from the situation. Stuff like that.
So happy I found you! I am the parent of a 16 year old with “high functioning autism,” diagnosed about a year ago. He’s an amazing young man but has many challenges. I have looked into occupational therapy but didn’t know how beneficial it would be at his age. What do you think? I will share your channel with him for sure. I think he could definitely relate to you. Thank you for sharing your experiences and for making autism cool!
Answered my own question from watching more of your videos. So occupational therapy was helpful to you in your 20s! His therapists kept telling my I would be lucky to find an OT to take him, they typically work with younger kids. ?? All of this is new to me and trying to research so I can help him, and either the info is geared more to children and rather patronizing, or it’s very technical and scientific and I don’t understand it. YOU ARE A GOD SEND!! Who better to learn from than someone who actually lives it every day?? I am binging you right now to learn what I can, and I have shared with my son as well. He still has a lot of anxiety and shame about his diagnosis, and this will really help. He really is the most amazing young man and I want to help him succeed because I know he can. ❤️
I appreciate all the info you keep making known to everyone struggling with these differences in life. I was diagnosed with asd a little over a year ago at 29 and adhd shortly before that but I had no clue what to pin everything down to that I was feeling or struggling with. My counselor has helped a lot since he has extensive training with the needs I have and even with it still being someone new, I’m still seeing improvements I thought would have taken me years to see. With so much on the interweb to research it’s not exactly easy to understand it all to an extent to make it relatable to me but I can’t thank you enough for opening my eyes to more like you have been. Occupational therapy always sounded like ways to help people work and I never really looked into it but you made it clear that it definitely is something to look into more. So thank you for your advice and I hope life keeps getting easier for you to understand.
I got my ASD diagnosis about two weeks before the lockdown and haven't been able to pursue any follow-up for it yet due to the lockdown. I'm considering speaking to somebody about possibly seeking an ADHD diagnosis as well, because I really relate to lots of people I've seen talking about their ADHD since I began to participate in the ND community online. And I have heard you say that something like 80% of people with an ASD diagnosis probably also has ADHD.
Our whole family is autistic. Our 16 yo has an OT at her independent school in the uk. What I have learned is that not all OTs are specialists in sensory stuff. They need to be Sensory Integration trained, there‘s a qualification they need to have done, a full on whole extra year or two of training on top of the basic OT qualification. And the one my daughter has, has been brilliant. Almost her favourite person there, because she understands so much and makes some great suggestions to help. Everybody‘s sensory diet needs are different. The right sort of movement helps my dd feel better, in ways we might never have worked out for ourselves.
I am doing occupational therapy assessment now. The assessment and report writing takes 11 hours. I am hoping it helps. And I’d love a video where you discuss it in more detail.
For your sensory processsing and your quality of life try neurofeedback. Try the one with the complete helmet. It will help you alot like me. Eye contact, joint attention, facial expression, and pragmatic conversation issues are no more a thing for me. And I'm not as good for memorizing random facts now I forget after sometimes.
im confused in the description it says this video is sponsored by betterhelp but in the video you say it's not and i dont see a link for them either. did something change since this vid?
I have Aspergers and ADHD. I got my diagnoses almost 7 years ago at age 35. At the moment I am looking for help in life. With several personal and work related things I am getting burned out if I not do anything about it.
I am not diagnosed because it's very expensive, but all the online tests I do suggest that it is highly probable that I have ASD, also, how would the specialist would not know I am masking sone symptoms?
Took a quiz that said I'm very likely to have asperger's and experience many of the common traits. Maybe I Don't have it but I'm sure there are ways to help that overlap. Just looking for some of that
I've just been diagnosed aspie. 50 years of negative behavior and thinking. Been in and out of prison and addict. Spent the best part of 20 years looking for my core issue. Now what do I do. With covid can't even get appt with GP and I'm struggling and just a scared little boy.
im... pseudo diagnosed? i got assessed for adhd and after an interview the practitioner added a small autism test along with the others i did. it found me rather likely to be an aspie and the practitioner felt the same based on my life experiences and other such descriptions my mom and i gave. the three of us discussed it and the aspects that she described really fit- i agreed. so, that... doesnt feel equal to a diagnosis from someone looking for asd. idk, its thrown me off when im asked, pretty annoying. hmm, informal diagnosis? maybe
I have autism, adhd and ocd. So do you think that the ocd rituals will get harder to reduce when you also have autism? Since you with autism usually likes routines then pheraphs the rituals becomes routines and it well get harder to get rid off? Also how do you know if it is your ocd rituals or autism routines? Or if it is combined. Maybe you could do a vid on this? Or maybe you already made one?
My wife told me that I have asbergers yet she's not a doctor, but I do seem to be a high functioning person with asd. All of the symptoms that I read about before ring a bell.
You live about 15 minutes from my house in Flintshire unbelievable. On a different subject can you tell me how long you had to wait for your assessment. I saw my gp tiday to request an assessment he said it’s a long waiting list
ive been trying to get a diagnoses since i was 16, im 24 now. i have very little doubt im aspie, pretty much a guarantee im nurodivergent. but doctors keep telling me that aspie is not a valid diagnosis, ive gotten diagnosed with depression and anxiety but its NOT my main problems.... its insainly frustrating
I have high functioning autism I was diagnosed late I got diagnosed at the age of 25, There is no support for me. I am getting to old as I am now 29. =(
Hey, I have a question, but first I wanted to see if you will respond to this..... I am in or was in a relationship with an aspie, I just want some advice. :/
I believe I have Asperger’s, I do t know what is wrong with me but most of the symptoms line up! I’m 34 years old and find myself In a cycle of build vs destroy. Super high sex drive vs no sex drive etc. invincible and extreme productivity vs hibernate and shut up any noises. Idk 🤷♂️ I’m feeling pretty helpless.
Hey can you do a vido about overprtectid perens cus I have asd and they are so overprtectid I'm 15 and tody u was cutting a lemon with a nife and they was. Like omg be carful u cannot do that yh sorry I'm just anoyd lol have amazing day x💕

Unfortunately, there is no way for me to get help where I am now. Vietnam is not accepting of ASD and testing ends at age 10 and assistance has a lot of stigma associated with it.

I know that I've already commented! But I wanted to comment about your food videos. So I've always had a problem with eating lunch at school. I rather go buy a sandwich or something in the cafeteria and find a quiet place to be by myself and eat. But my mom wants me to eat in the lunch room at my school bcs it costs money and otherwise we pay for nothing. (Ill be living in a dorm this school year) I just was wondering if you had tips on how I could talk to her about that? Caus I find it really difficult to eat in the cafeteria.
very few long term, affordable therapies around at the moment. OT has a 9month back log in my area at the moment... also you say you read and reply to all comments... this is my third and I've yet to receive a single reply... why should I trust anything you say now?
Hey Dan, I am doing my first ever series on my channel soon all about Mental Health, each episode I will cover a different mental illness and speak to someone who has it.
I'm Autistic and Psychotic, (Asperger's syndrome and Schizoaffective disorder), psychonautics/access to drugs helps me out. I magnify myself rather than try dull myself, take Psychedelics and dabble in other stuff

I was diagnosed with aspergers around 2 years ago when I was about 17 and I finally started doing research about it and your channel has really made me feel comfortable with who I am and really makes me feel happy and confident keep it up best of luck to you never give you man!
i am a 38 y/o female and have slipped through the cracks and misdiagnosed my whole entire life (from age 8 to this past year).. regardless of the fact that my little brother had a diagnosis, and my mother was later diagnosed as an adult..
PLEASE people - do NOT let ANYONE misdiagnose your children! i am a suicide survivor bc i was placed on anti-depressants, which ultimately threw my brain out of sorts.. i've been forcefully locked away so many times (10 times from age 14 to age 28) in psych wards for disorders i didn't have.. growing up being told you're ""smart but lazy" and everyone around you comparing their anxiety to your autism is so damaging.. i am just now trying to sort this all out. thank you for the video..
I am I a fairly new relationship with an aspire guy, but to my advantage, I have a 13 Yr old son with autism, ADHD, OCD and ODD and a 5 Yr old with aspergers, ADHD OCD ODD and anxiety. So it's second nature to in that aspie world and of anything, it's made relationship even better because he knows I understand him and u know he understands my kids sometimes better than I do at times.
Love watching your videos and learning more x
Becki (PS, I'm in North Wales also)
what's ODD?
@@KimFincher ODD? Oppositional(ly) defiant disorder, I think.
I'm here because I just realized yesterday that I have Asperger's...and I'm trying to look for ways to treat it because I desperately want to hope that things can get better for me.
I’m 47, female from uk. Just been diagnosed with Aspergers and waiting for my ADHD assessment to be done. Still struggling with life in general and bogged down with what/when/how/who etc so love this channel ty Dan x
How do you get diagnosed here?Apparently it's a lot harder to get diagnosed in the UK because Aspergers isn't actually considered a mental illness/issue anymore since like 2013 I believe.

I struggle the same areas it’s always when what why have to have things together or my life feels like it’s falling apart
I haven't officially received the word yet, but I'm pretty sure aspergers is what makes me, me. Constantly over analyzing, reading into things to deeply, being told to "calm down" or "sit still," loosing 6 hours in a project, and feeling out of touch with the rest of humanity. I want to communicate, I talk constantly while I feel like everything I say goes right over other people's heads, if they are actually paying attention at all. Every day is building Rome in a day, or just giving up and going back to bed. I don't know?
I was diagnosed last year at 44.
A friend told me I had some aspergers apparent traits. Now, since I have started investigating about it (especially finding your channel) I feel pretty sure I have aspergers, love your videos man, they have been very helpful for someone like me. I will be making an appointment with my primary dr soon. ✌

Thank you for thumbing up my comment before you are lovely
This channel is great. In November I was diagnosed with stage 3 oral cancer, got 50% my tongue removed reconstructed, had radiotherapy, been recovering from that healing my self with cannabis and stem cell therapy but recently I found a paper on living with a undiagnosed ASD partner and it read like my life but so much made sense. Your videos are really helping me understand myself better each day, thank you so much!
I've been following you since my son was diagnosed ADHD & then further diagnosed on the spectrum ASD towards the high functioning side. I believe it is Asperger's but the DSM changed and now it's all ASD🤷♀️🤦 It was a nightmare before the Autism diagnosis; but then it ALL finally made sense ❣️ We're still struggling but it's SO much clearer now, like all the pieces of the puzzle finally came together! THE WORLD NEEDS MORE AWARENESS REGARDING ASD, THANKS FOR HELPING ❣️❣️❣️
I was diagnosed with Aspergers before the whole ASD switch. However I still refer to my self as an Aspie. I’m also physically disabled. I shattered my back 4 years ago and am now permanently disabled. I was able to find what makes me happy and am now enjoying the happiest I’ve ever been. I love your channel, I even have your “Keep being awesome” hat! It’s my favorite hat and unfortunately you stopped selling them. I wish I would have bought 5 of them. It’s become an item that I can’t leave my house without. Thank you for being such a great representative of our community! I can’t tell you how many people I’ve referred to your channel and how many videos of yours that I’ve used to try to explain me.
I found that Being Surrounded by other people your own age who don't have aspergers can be beneficial. I TrIed being more observant of their behavior in social settings, really helped me alot when I was younger, and I'm alot better now than I was but I still exhibit traits of aspergers in my mid 20's.
I’m so happy to have found your RUclips channel. God Bless you for sharing your journey.
❤️🙌🏼Thank you so much for the comment! Make sure you are subscribed and have the notifications turned on :).
I'm a parent, I come here to better understand the challenges my adult son faces in his life. He has Autism Spectrum Disorder - (Aspergers, when diagnosed) and Non-verbal Learning Disability, (which affects his ability to process and understand non-verbal forms of communication such as tone of voice, facial expression, and body language.) The insights I learn from watching your channel have been beneficial in opening conversations where he has struggled to be able to explain as clearly as he would like.
He can be very sensitive about having this diagnosis. I have managed to get him to watch this video and he's seriously interested in the relaxation therapy! I hope he will consider occupational therapy as well, as he often struggles with spacial differences and spills are a daily frustration for him. He is very hard on himself and I am hoping that in time, he can turn that around and use that ability to scrutinize for something more beneficial.
It is my hope that he will continue to watch your channel and discuss his thoughts with me, so I can continue to support him in an informed and more directed way. I've learned so much from him and from you here.
Keep up the great work Dan!
Great video Dan. I have Aspergers Syndrome myself. You doing videos on it makes me feel like someone mentions it.
Yeah! Sensory diet / occupational therapy videos would be great!
Thanks for this video, Dan !!!!!!!! I do the first treatment on your list. Also everybody have a Happy independence Day weekend !!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm a parent and found your video really helpful.
Most others talk 'about' asperger's and acceptance. Hard to find some that help the pains and struggles. Obviously it is better to work with Improvement when there is lest pain and distress. So how to reduce discomfort and distress in helpful ways is key. Thanks
I am actually being diagnosed with Asperger defo on the spectrum with adhd and gifted I didn’t finish my diagnostic cause my Asperger got me confused so needed to step back a little bit to educate myself and love your vidéo they are such a great support it took me time to understand how it has affected my childhood and my life today I am just a little bit worried about medical treatment… but I am not there yet !
Thanks for the video dan.
I heard of occupational therapy. They seem really amazing. So that’s good
Diagnosed in October 2019 just before my 32rd birthday 😕 only worked it out in February and I totally agree some councillors are great for talking through where your at and trying to unpick everything until it makes sense. I'm so grateful I was with a councillor I trusted prior and after I was diagnosed it helped alot to process part of what it meant to me, how life effects me personally and how I cope with it.
Thanks for your work Dan you've helped me along the way alot ☺️
Yet I've missed about the acoustic therapy 😲 I've been saying for years I want to be able to sit on a mat and feel music and this sounds soooo close
Thank you so much for the comment!
My boyfriend of 12 years can be very invalidating because he zones in to the things he likes, doesn't understand why I want compliments, fidgets a lot, doesn't make eye contact, only has online friends, etcetera. On top of this, I'm Bipolar I so his lack of engagement has driven me nuts and turned into terrible arguments more times than I can count. He does not have a formal diagnosis but I let loose on my psychiatrist about this and she asked me the family member version of screening questions for Aspberger's Syndrome. He matched up almost perfectly even though I was in denial. I know he will not see a therapist on his own because he thinks he's totally fine. But now that this has become pretty much a reality for me (I have not told him), I'm looking all over for support. I don't talk down to my AS friends but I find myself doing it to him. I'm so worried that we'll fight again over me misunderstanding something or that he'll have a melt down (I have them too, just differently).
I feel on eggshells here. I'm talking to my own therapist Monday to see what I can do to process this in a healthy way for both of us. I've already told him that I support him and that many of his tics and habits are something I will just have to accept. He shrugged like always and I accepted that as an affirmative.
He's a sweet, fun guy. I did try to move on from him but couldn't. I don't want to. Knowing now what he's experiencing and learning more about it isn't going to change him but it absolutely will change how I handle myself in the situations that crop up.
Thank you so much for these videos. I'm so grateful to the mental health community already for the support I've received for my BPD and this is just another amazing resource.
Apologies for this becoming an essay. I'm currently hypomanic lol
Don't feel bad I'm pretty sure I have Asperger's and started looking into it recently.my gf of 12 years always was at the blunt end of things (I'm very honest) she asks does she look fat and I will agree .... She asked right? I don't get social cues,I don't understand how to make friends in real life or what the social norm is I have friends online I can speak to but face to face I clam up.
Best advice I could give is the sweeter you are to him the sweeter he will be back smile and try and be close to him so he doesn't have to try and read the social cues we just don't understand them!
I did tell my gf I think I have Asperger's and she said it explains alot but she's started being more affectionate towards me because I struggle with social cues and just think she's always pissed off at me or had a bad day.
Hope I helped a little bit and good luck
Parent whom believes Asperger's runs on the female side of my family. 2 of my girls as well as myself are clearly described in many of the Asperger's vids. From eye contact to foods, sleep, mental health, and so much more. Thank you for sharing and helping us all.
Hi, I love following you and so appreciate the awareness you bring to this topic. I was a classroom teacher and now tutor Learning Differences. My Hubby has Aspergers and is an inventor. We developed a sound device that works awesome for the sensory stuff you have mentioned in this video. It is kinda a combo of the music bed thing you mentioned here and the sensory exercises. Could I send you some info and possibly one to give a try? Again thanks so much for bringing awareness to these subjects.🙏🏻💕
Awesome vid. Can't wait for your series on the Sensory Diet.
Yay!! Thanks Sara
I have high functioning autism and was diagnosed at age 5 and spent my entire schooling in special education
Lucky you, I was 18 when I was diagnosed and spent my whole schooling in mainstream being bullied and abused. I really wish I'd have been diagnosed earlier and homeschooled but at least I have a passion for teaching and spreading disability awareness.
Ausome Aspie same with me 😔
My son has hfa and is mainstreamed no problems
0 Seven many on the spectrum who have been mainstreamed have been fine hopefully he gets good marks when he graduates what does he wanna be when he grows up?
I worked as a teacher's assistant for our special education department for four years. Honestly, the children with autism of different levels were so wonderful to work with. I was assigned specifically to one child for a while because her anxiety was so bad that she needed one-on-one attention. I loved working with her and helping her to stay occupied and calm. I hope you were treated well. Fortunately for my students (but not for me), I was not treated well when I dealt with mental health issues as a child. I was able to learn from the mistakes the adults around me made and to pass that understanding on to my students.
I hope you are well and that you had at least some good experiences in school.
My Granddaughter is now 19 and suffers from anxiety and depression and is on meds for that. From school documents, they think she has some autism traits. Recently she lost her mother who was a very smart woman, who went to college. So a hard act to follow, she just started in hairdressing school, and already is falling behind. She is also dyslexic and so reading the textbooks is a real challenge for her, and although I was very open in the consultation process to let them know her issues they are not accommodating her as apparently they are duty bound to do. By the way, we are in Canada. She came home today crying, and saying she is failing some tests, already, and I am trying to let her make up her own mind about what she should do. Give up now, or try to keep going, She has a long day with travel 7am til 6pm then homework to do. I did get her a Counsellor but she didn't want to talk to him, and so I just don't know what to do now. I have Googled my area and no Autism help around. I don't know what to do to help her, she is very uptight, and can be loud and comes across as rude sometimes but the school does not accept that kind of attitude to their staff which I can see, but where do we go from here? I am a senior with no other family, and now I have inherited 2 Teenagers the other one had also depression anxiety and ADHD so I am overwhelmed and need help getting them through this. I have a Dr that says the school reports are old so he kind of dismissed what they had to say, so that was a letdown for moving forward as well. Anyway, just needed to get this off my mind today and will be following you to see if I can pick up some tips to help me along and cope. Can you make this that only you see it?
💜Thank you well I’m in my early 40s and I barely found out I have Asperger‘s which makes completely sense for me but I was diagnosed in the early 2000 and then again later on six years ago and then again six years after that but the records and diagnosis were always hidden from me until now but before then I’ve been diagnosed with OCD, anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADHD, and, dyslexia and also, my son is on the spectrum so I just come here because I wanna understand and most days I feel lost and it’s a struggle so maybe I can find some support here on your channel
Really excellent video
Thank you!
one the best thing is to exercise every day .don't go to bed late and put the alarm to get up . try hard to fight your symptoms the best you can and hide the ones that you can , life is hard and cruel
I'm getting evaluated for ADHD in two weeks and autism hopefully later this year. My therapist and I bost suspect that I have ADHD and that I am on the autism spectrum. I am a 20 year old uni student from Germany :)
For me personally psycho therapy and sport currently help me a lot. I look forward to getting occupational therapy after being diagnosed.
I am very lucky to live I Germany so my therapy and all the appointments are covered by my insurance.

I am in America in Philadelphia more specifically (incase anyone wants to know) and I could not find occupational therapy, which in Philadelphia we have come of the best hospitals and medical services in the world. I could not find a provider for adults with ASD. I even looked out of state. Delaware had a place willing to do an evaluation, but because it was out if state insurance wouldn't pay. I am excited for your OT video!
Yay!! Thank you so much for the comment!
I am outside of Philly but close enough to travel there. I know what you mean. It took until I was 30 to be diagnosed with autism and adhd. I am in Delaware County if you are wondering. I wonder if you can go out of the county for therapy. I'm sure there's something like that for your insurance but I'm not entirely sure. I guess it depends.
@@hikariwaifu2313 Oh hey fellow Pennsylvanian. I was diasgnosed at 31, but it's not officially official. My psychiatrist did the evaluation because the 2 places in Philly had crazy waiting lists and is fees upwards of 2000$. I have medicaid and going out of county is always difficult. There is no guarantee I could get reimbursement or get an exception and have them cover it. I found a lace in Delaware that will do OT for sensory processing disorder in adults, but it was no go with my insurance. I can't complain too much though medicaid is very good about covering things and providers as long as it's in county.
I’m a Grandmother wanting to interact with my grandson in a helpful/loving manner.
Diagnosed year before, 2018, getting the official call that I had Autism Level 1 exactly a week after my birthday. So I'll always remember I was 36 for a week before I found out. I've also previously been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder Type 1 with Psychosis, which kept me from getting other diagnoses until that was under control. It masked a lot of other symptoms. Once quarantine is over, they're going to have me tested for ADHD as well. ^^; I've been seeing a therapist and psychiatrist for my bipolar diagnosis for a long time, and currently see my therapist once a week via video chat. While my previous therapist was mostly cognitive behavioral therapy, my new therapist focuses on dialectical behavioral therapy. Basically as I have issues with things and react poorly or meltdown because of stressors, we work on how to cope with the stressors and find ways to deal with them before I completely break down. A lot of it is mindfulness and finding solutions to things like anxiety. Recently we've been working on the TIPP skills. Temperature, Intense Exercise, Paced Breathing, and Paired Muscle Relaxation. Temperature is good when approaching a panic attack because you can use ice or cold water on your face and it kinda resets you so you can think enough to either distract or remove yourself from the situation. Stuff like that.
Thank you so much for the comment! Please subscribe to my channel to see more videos from me :).
So happy I found you! I am the parent of a 16 year old with “high functioning autism,” diagnosed about a year ago. He’s an amazing young man but has many challenges. I have looked into occupational therapy but didn’t know how beneficial it would be at his age. What do you think? I will share your channel with him for sure. I think he could definitely relate to you. Thank you for sharing your experiences and for making autism cool!
Answered my own question from watching more of your videos. So occupational therapy was helpful to you in your 20s! His therapists kept telling my I would be lucky to find an OT to take him, they typically work with younger kids. ?? All of this is new to me and trying to research so I can help him, and either the info is geared more to children and rather patronizing, or it’s very technical and scientific and I don’t understand it. YOU ARE A GOD SEND!! Who better to learn from than someone who actually lives it every day?? I am binging you right now to learn what I can, and I have shared with my son as well. He still has a lot of anxiety and shame about his diagnosis, and this will really help. He really is the most amazing young man and I want to help him succeed because I know he can. ❤️
I appreciate all the info you keep making known to everyone struggling with these differences in life. I was diagnosed with asd a little over a year ago at 29 and adhd shortly before that but I had no clue what to pin everything down to that I was feeling or struggling with. My counselor has helped a lot since he has extensive training with the needs I have and even with it still being someone new, I’m still seeing improvements I thought would have taken me years to see.
With so much on the interweb to research it’s not exactly easy to understand it all to an extent to make it relatable to me but I can’t thank you enough for opening my eyes to more like you have been. Occupational therapy always sounded like ways to help people work and I never really looked into it but you made it clear that it definitely is something to look into more. So thank you for your advice and I hope life keeps getting easier for you to understand.
Thank you so much for the comment!
Thank You for this video..
I got my ASD diagnosis about two weeks before the lockdown and haven't been able to pursue any follow-up for it yet due to the lockdown.
I'm considering speaking to somebody about possibly seeking an ADHD diagnosis as well, because I really relate to lots of people I've seen talking about their ADHD since I began to participate in the ND community online. And I have heard you say that something like 80% of people with an ASD diagnosis probably also has ADHD.
i may have both 50/50
Our whole family is autistic. Our 16 yo has an OT at her independent school in the uk. What I have learned is that not all OTs are specialists in sensory stuff. They need to be Sensory Integration trained, there‘s a qualification they need to have done, a full on whole extra year or two of training on top of the basic OT qualification. And the one my daughter has, has been brilliant. Almost her favourite person there, because she understands so much and makes some great suggestions to help. Everybody‘s sensory diet needs are different. The right sort of movement helps my dd feel better, in ways we might never have worked out for ourselves.
Hi everyone 👋
Hey!!
Looking forward to the sensory diet video!
I love counseling
Im listening to your video because one of my colleague's children has been diagnosed with asperger syndrome
Please do a video on sensory processing, I can't get anyone to take me seriously about it.
I am doing occupational therapy assessment now. The assessment and report writing takes 11 hours. I am hoping it helps. And I’d love a video where you discuss it in more detail.
ty!
For your sensory processsing and your quality of life try neurofeedback. Try the one with the complete helmet. It will help you alot like me. Eye contact, joint attention, facial expression, and pragmatic conversation issues are no more a thing for me. And I'm not as good for memorizing random facts now I forget after sometimes.
I’m a parent trying to figure out what’s what
how do you deal with fireworks? Because when i'm around fireworks I start to have a meltdown.
I’m a parent and after watching your videos I took the AQ test for myself. I scored 35.
before o.t.: I would be tired all the time because noises would wake me up all the time at night. After o.t.: I usually have a reasonably good night
Is the occupational therapy available on the nhs?
My son has Asperger's but the doctor took him off the meds that made him like catatonic .. getting him to ask for help is my kinda big challenge now
Hi, i'm an Asperger teenager from Costa Rica. ¿What's your opinion abuot medication for the Aspergers?
im confused in the description it says this video is sponsored by betterhelp but in the video you say it's not and i dont see a link for them either. did something change since this vid?
I have never been diagnosed. What is that process like?
I have Aspergers and ADHD. I got my diagnoses almost 7 years ago at age 35. At the moment I am looking for help in life. With several personal and work related things I am getting burned out if I not do anything about it.
I am not diagnosed because it's very expensive, but all the online tests I do suggest that it is highly probable that I have ASD, also, how would the specialist would not know I am masking sone symptoms?
Took a quiz that said I'm very likely to have asperger's and experience many of the common traits. Maybe I Don't have it but I'm sure there are ways to help that overlap. Just looking for some of that
My nephew lives with us and his doesn’t have a definite diagnose yet. We’re trying to know how to best help him.
I've just been diagnosed aspie. 50 years of negative behavior and thinking. Been in and out of prison and addict. Spent the best part of 20 years looking for my core issue. Now what do I do. With covid can't even get appt with GP and I'm struggling and just a scared little boy.
Have you ever had social skills training? My therapist has said I was supposed to start it (before COVID-19), but I have No Clue even what it is.
im... pseudo diagnosed? i got assessed for adhd and after an interview the practitioner added a small autism test along with the others i did. it found me rather likely to be an aspie and the practitioner felt the same based on my life experiences and other such descriptions my mom and i gave. the three of us discussed it and the aspects that she described really fit- i agreed. so, that... doesnt feel equal to a diagnosis from someone looking for asd. idk, its thrown me off when im asked, pretty annoying. hmm, informal diagnosis? maybe
I have autism, adhd and ocd. So do you think that the ocd rituals will get harder to reduce when you also have autism? Since you with autism usually likes routines then pheraphs the rituals becomes routines and it well get harder to get rid off?
Also how do you know if it is your ocd rituals or autism routines? Or if it is combined.
Maybe you could do a vid on this? Or maybe you already made one?
My wife told me that I have asbergers yet she's not a doctor, but I do seem to be a high functioning person with asd. All of the symptoms that I read about before ring a bell.
Im looking forward for the sensory diet video?
Yes, I have Asperrge
✌🏼
You live about 15 minutes from my house in Flintshire unbelievable. On a different subject can you tell me how long you had to wait for your assessment. I saw my gp tiday to request an assessment he said it’s a long waiting list
ive been trying to get a diagnoses since i was 16, im 24 now. i have very little doubt im aspie, pretty much a guarantee im nurodivergent. but doctors keep telling me that aspie is not a valid diagnosis, ive gotten diagnosed with depression and anxiety but its NOT my main problems.... its insainly frustrating
My daughter is diagnosed, and I (her mom) think I also have ASD.
I have high functioning autism I was diagnosed late I got diagnosed at the age of 25, There is no support for me. I am getting to old as I am now 29. =(
Where can I order that awesome hat?
Hey, I have a question, but first I wanted to see if you will respond to this..... I am in or was in a relationship with an aspie, I just want some advice. :/
I believe I have Asperger’s, I do t know what is wrong with me but most of the symptoms line up! I’m 34 years old and find myself In a cycle of build vs destroy. Super high sex drive vs no sex drive etc. invincible and extreme productivity vs hibernate and shut up any noises. Idk 🤷♂️ I’m feeling pretty helpless.
Have you researched fragile X ?
Hey can you do a vido about overprtectid perens cus I have asd and they are so overprtectid I'm 15 and tody u was cutting a lemon with a nife and they was. Like omg be carful u cannot do that yh sorry I'm just anoyd lol have amazing day x💕

Unfortunately, there is no way for me to get help where I am now. Vietnam is not accepting of ASD and testing ends at age 10 and assistance has a lot of stigma associated with it.

I know that I've already commented! But I wanted to comment about your food videos. So I've always had a problem with eating lunch at school. I rather go buy a sandwich or something in the cafeteria and find a quiet place to be by myself and eat. But my mom wants me to eat in the lunch room at my school bcs it costs money and otherwise we pay for nothing. (Ill be living in a dorm this school year) I just was wondering if you had tips on how I could talk to her about that? Caus I find it really difficult to eat in the cafeteria.
Have you tried noise canceling headphones to block out the background noise a major sensory issue
I am actually just now noticing I may have some symptoms, but I will be honest im a little cynical about it considering I am 28 years old.
Second you the best yay
Whoop
Are these therapies you receive'd as an adult, teen, child?.. parent here.
I'm a mom of a kiddo. A super fun kiddo :)
Im 35 and got diagnosed autism spectrum/aspburgers at age 32.
very few long term, affordable therapies around at the moment. OT has a 9month back log in my area at the moment... also you say you read and reply to all comments... this is my third and I've yet to receive a single reply... why should I trust anything you say now?
Will weed or any other mild drug help?
i was diagnosed with ASD January 2020 aged 32. i have no help or support.
Oh hey that’s so interesting. Have you looked on google for local help and support?
Hey Dan, I am doing my first ever series on my channel soon all about Mental Health, each episode I will cover a different mental illness and speak to someone who has it.
Parent getting child diagnosed. I am also working on my own diagnosis.
I got my diagnosis in 2017. The year I got suicidal again. Age 46 this year
Hope you re ok
I have asperger's syndrome i got diagnosed when i was 26 years old
I'm Autistic and Psychotic, (Asperger's syndrome and Schizoaffective disorder), psychonautics/access to drugs helps me out. I magnify myself rather than try dull myself, take Psychedelics and dabble in other stuff
