In defense of the ADHD "Yes, I knew it!" Person, having being told your whole life that you are neurotypical and struggling your whole life with the symptoms of ADHD while being told you don't have it, it can be a total relief being told that you are right, you do have ADHD, and there's a chance you could get medicine to help you with your focusing. So being diagnosed with a chance of medication could be the reason why they said "Yes, I knew it!"
Yeah honestly I think I might have anxiety and I would be happy to hear that I do have it, that means there's a reason why I go through a lot of the struggles in my life that I don't really understand
I did kind have that moment when I was given my mental health assessment (mostly testing for autism but turns out I have both neurodivergencies and mentally illnesses)
Yeah, that's understandable....its a mind fu(k after years of not knowing what is going on with your body/mind. I was dismissed for 25 years, until it was no longer my word they had to listen to......I now have severe osteoarthritis that they can see on film......I wouldn't be as bad as I am if they listened to me. The mind fu(k part comes in when you are scared to death they won't find a reason for what's going on.....I know I don't want to have anything, but if I find out I do...I can give it a name and try to treat the symptoms, also the validation is so important for your mental health! I'm so sad this is something people fake for attention.....I will lie, cheat and steal to try and hide my health problems. These people will eventually "grow up" and be mortified they did this!
I had a "yes I knew it" kind of reaction when I was diagnosed with autism because it's nice to finally have an explanation. Also fun fact about autism stimming is something that we do because we find it calming and my therapist thinks my obsessive pacing (multiple miles a day) may be stimming for me.
I was like 4 when i got diagnosed with adhd but honestly if I was told my entire life I don’t have adhd and not knowing why I couldnt pay attention, and suddenly there’s a reason why, I’d understand why you’d go “yes I knew it.” I had a similar reaction when I was diagnosed with anemia, like I knew something was off, and my mom told me I was probably just overreacting, I wasn’t happy having anemia but at least I knew what was wrong and had a way to treat it.
Also as someone who doesn’t have autism but does have adhd, (stims are present in adhd as well) there are little things I do that bring me happy feelings and all that so while jumping up and down on a trampoline in generals gonna bring you the happy chemicals. Technically any action that stimulates you to create serotonin or dopamine is a stim. But yeah I don’t know why she posted that specifically, people have no self respect.
@@Abs0408can confirm with trampolines and happy chemicals. I’m autistic and have ADHD w/ Generalised Anxiety Disorder. I went to a trampoline park at… 6? 7? Anyway, was a bit overwhelmed but veryyyy happy chemical
As a person who used to get bullied for actually having ADHD and then seeing people FAKE it for ATTENTION just boils my blood. Im absolutely speechless on how these people are HAPPY for having a mental disorder-
Fr and if they post it seemingly capturing the exact moment they do the “quirky thing” You can tell they’re faking. Or they have a film crew on them 24/7 (unlikely)
Same. I mean I’m not too deeply upset cuz they’re honestly making fools of themselves. But it’s not something you can mimic. People know I have ADHD before I even tell them just by being around me.
The person being mad about "only" having BPD pissed me off so much. I had BPD symptoms since my early childhood and got it diagnosed as soon as I was old enough (because there's some sort of legal regulation in regards to diagnosing BPD in children, so the doctors had to wait until I turned 18). And let me tell you, it's not "only" BPD. I mean, I don't know what life is like for mentally healthy people, but living with BPD really sucks. It got to the point where I asked my friend, who has epilepsy and hemiparalysis which are definitly way more severe conditions than mine, if she ever thinks about the fact that she has to live with her disabilities for the rest of her life and if she ever wondered what life as a healthy person would feel like. That conversation happened while we sat on her bed and she had to hold me in her arms because I couldn't stop crying and I didn't even know why. I'm sure life isn't easy for anyone, but from what I know, there are many additional struggles for people like me. I wish I had the mental stability to get a job or finally finish school. I wish I wouldn't be so overly emotional all the time and things wouldn't hurt me so much. I wish I could stop chasing all my friends away because they can't keep up with my clingyness and completely unreasonable trust issues. If you'd tell me for the 10th time in the past 2 months that you won't leave me behind one day and that I really do matter to you, I wish I could believe you. Living with a mental disorder is no joke and I sincerely wish that there would be less people having to suffer from such.
Exactly. These people think having a disability is "cool" and "quirky" but it's rlly not. Like there isn't anything wrong with actually having a disability bc the person can't help it but it's not fun having to live with them. I have both, severe medical issues and mental disabilities, and let me tell u neither of them are fun having to deal with everyday. For my medical, I have to deal with: Severe chest pains out of the blue without warning even when I'm relaxing, almost having heart attacks, severe foot cramps, severe body aches from head to toe, running out of breath easily, almost passing out or actually passing out, etc. My mom and I have fought for more than 10 years to find what's wrong, I'm only 18 as of now, and still nothing. It's been an emotionally bumpy road with a lot of anger and tears shed. For mental disabilities, I have: ADHD, Autism, SPD, A lisp, Insomnia, Hypersomnia, Anxiety, PTSD, and some others. They all affect me severely daily and seeing people fake or make fun of them pisses me off. And I have a brother with severe autism that can't even do things for himself so I have to protect him and stuff so seeing people do stuff like these videos pisses me off knowing that fact even more. People need to understand it's not fun or funny or a flex having to deal with actual issues almost everyday or everyday.
hey, 18 y/o with autism here and I'd just like to say that I appreciate it loads that u mock people like these. I was far from happy to hear that both a doctor and therapist diagnosed me with autism, but it's disgusting that people act happy about having any mental disorder, especially if it's self diagnosed.. it'll always be a mystery to me. love u mate, keep up the amusing content!
You are my parent now ☆ (I got a autism diagnosis with my OWN MONEY from working a part-time job [\Cause I'm 14\] and my mom DISWONED ME because the professional said I was autistic after doing tests with me for a couple weeks [or months, I can't even tell anymore- it was in april and I took it out of state BC I was there with family for awhile and the time is different] and so now I live with my dad✔♡
I’m autistic too and I hate these lizards trying to mimic humanity but I’d also hate to see a world where people just call anyone with a real disorder a liar and that they don’t have it because there were just too many lizards mimicking that people couldn’t tell what was real and what wasn’t
Dumb a$$ people who fake disorders are just literal garbage, and imma fix some hate by spreading love around the comments! Now tell me, do you have any special interests or hyperfixations you want to share anyone?
tbf, sometimes it CAN be good to hear that ur thoughts that something was wrong are confirmed, and you aren't crazy or something. i almost cried tears of joy when i got my adhd diagnosis (not because i was thinking "omg, finally! i can get sympathy and free internet points!!!" lol) because it was so relieving to hear that not ONLY did someone believe me on my struggles, but that it was a diagnosable thing, and that medication could actually help me with my focusing. having a mental disorder isnt a fun thing in any sense of the word, but honestly finding out i have adhd has really helped me think more about my mental health, so it's got its ups and downs lol. i just wish people wouldn't pretend to have mental disorders because it's actually a serious thing, and people pretending they have stuff like that and lying about/manipulating the diagnostic requirements can be really bad for people who are yet to be diagnosed/trying to get a diagnosis. plus, what do you really get out of that anyways?? its not like its some kind of privilege to have a mental disorder, its awful. all you get is attention (usually bad), and id be willing to bet that a lot of these people didn't get enough attention from their parents LOL.
Self-diagnosing things like ADHD, autism, etc after barely doing any research is stupid. They should stop seeing every little thing as a symptom and just go to the doctor to get tested. it's not that hard bruh Edit: I forgot that getting a diagnosis isn't simple. However, they could do more research, because surface-level research isn't always the answer.
I will agree with the first part, but diagnosis isn’t always possible due to how much it costs. I think it is worth it at least talking to a professional (that’s what I did)
Diagnosing isn't always possible for people but you're right with the not doing research part, if you actually search you could diagnose (even test yourself when you can afford it)
I was diagnosed at 23 as autistic, and I was so happy that I finally had it. Not because I could go around saying "oh I'm autistic, so I'll be popular!", but because I finally had an answer for why I am the way I am. I truly thought that I would never be able to find love, a job, or even have my own home, because I knew that something was different about me. After my diagnosis, I began to realize that I can have a job, have my own home, and find love. I'm not weird, or not normal. I'm just autistic. And I am normal. Nothing wrong with being normal
As far as I know, neurodivergent people do actually tend to gravitate towards each other. And that kinda makes sense because you'd be friends with people who process the world in a similar way to you and understand your struggles and what makes you happy. But at the same time that absolutely does not mean that if you're neurodivergent and you're friends aren't, that you should diagnose them yourself without them seeing a doctor. Just because you're neurodivergent doesn't mean they are smh. Also I actually have ADHD and pots. Too things that have recently become rly popular to fake on TikTok and it's ridiculous. For ADHD I literally saw a TikTok of someone calling it an aesthetic and for pots there was a trend of sitting down and standing up repetitively until you "pass out". Both are ridiculous and make fun of the real struggles of both. (Also if you don't know what pots is, it's just when your blood doesn't rly circulate properly through your body. Limbs can fall asleep and feel numb faster, ppl with it get rly dizzy standing up and can sometimes pass out, they have to be super careful about salt vs sugar intake, low and high spikes in blood pressure, etc.)
This happened yesterday to me: I was sitting at my lunch table, when someone next to me yelled "OH I DO THAT CUZ OF MY AUTISM" And as an autistic person, hearing someone else was autistic, I instantly wanted to ask them about it (as most autism is different with each person) ....And then they told me they self diagnosed it after they saw a video on tik tok It really pisses me off. Dont self diagnose people. You can go "oh, I think I have this" But not "Oh, I do have this" Until you get tested
"self-diagnosis" is valid, its even recommended by professionals sometimes due to financial issues or the fact its unavailable and its accepted in the autistic community but self-diagnosis is not simply looking at tiktoks, you actually have to put effort into it, its a long process.
Lmao bro. As a properly diagnosed autistic person, I can confirm to you that that is not what an autistic kid would do at school. Even I don't want to yell that lol. How embarrassing.
ok so the “YES I KNEW IT” for the adhd diagnosis…. It’s not terrible and I think quite relatable to some maybe. I for example felt extremely relieved because FINALLY after years of self harm and trying to better myself and failing I got an answer to my “why”. There’s a very good chance she felt like that too.
yeah that one i understood, it’s not celebrating the fact that she has adhd, but rather finally being believed and having a definite answer as to why she was struggling. simply knowing you have adhd (through diagnosis) can release a lot of the guilt and shame associated with “being lazy” and “not trying hard enough”
@@subliminaltripminedspaces sometimes people think that because you don't look or act a certain way you're faking it. I've seen people get uploaded to that sub reddit even though they weren't
Small correction at 2:10, lots of undiagnosed people are happy to get a diagnosis bc it explains behavior that they thought was just because they were a freak :) not speaking for everyone tho
Tbh yeah. My diagnosis I wouldn’t say was happy bc it was like “hey you’re gonna have to deal with this incurable thing for the rest of your life” but it was relieving and validating to hear I wasn’t crazy or overreacting and that there was smth wrong with my brain.
As someone with adhd, it’s annoying, like im clumsy and it’s really annoying, when someone does something like tapping their pencil against the table my adhd makes it feel more annoying, im not as aware of what my body needs at times, for example: when I need water, im not aware so then later it gets worse and I really need to drink water, same with food, and using the barthroom, etc, and it’s really hard to focus in class. Don’t fake disorders. You shouldn’t be happy to get a disorder because you think it’s ‘qUiRkY’, once you actually experience a disorder, it’s NOT FUN.
*accidentally posts a newspaper article on a RUclips comment* Btw I am doctor diagnosed with adhd and have to take medicine every day to help me focus better.
I, for one, was pretty damn happy to receive my official ADHD diagnosis, because I have struggled with its symptoms all my life, it made my school life unbearable. Like, at the end of a school day my brain was so burned out that I couldn't recognize my classmates' faces and voices anymore. I used to forget where I was, where I was going, the fact that I *was* going somewhere. It was excruciating, forcing yourself to focus on math and science for at least a minute, failing to do it over and over again, and burning your brains to crisp while doing so. I also have a ton of other symptoms; heck, you can put me into a studying book on psychiatry as an example because of how the signs of my ADHD are clear and evident. And despite all that noone cared and noone believed that something might be genuinely wrong with my brain. They used to say something like "oh, but you are so smart, you speak 4 languages, you can't possibly have troubles with attention and memory", and no duh, I *am* good with languages because it's the *ONLY* thing I can focus on, and linguistics have been my hyperfixation for 10 years straight. ADHD wasn't and isn't ruining my life, the lack of understanding and proper treatment was and is. Nobody cared that I have days when I simply *can't* function because my brain refuses to rev up. Nobody cared that I have troubles upholding a conversation as I will simply forget how to talk at some point and sometimes can't string a coherent sentence together due to my brain running 58 other conversation at the same time inside itself. Nobody cared how isolated it made me (and for men, who often struggle with isolation already, it is very dangerous). Nobody cared how many things I simply couldn't do due to my condition, they just labeled me as lazy, undisciplined and lacking. Learning that I have a genuine disability explained everything, it was liberating - but infuriating at the same time, because it made me realize how unfair I was treated throughout my life, and still am, and still will be, 'cuz I live in a country where noone gives a damn about disabled folks, they're either ignored or... worse, much worse. I wish all my fellow neurodivergent folks luck and strengh.
My autistic friend felt super sad when he saw the "Me in my autistic era" because, like, it's a real thing and real people with real feelings have it and people fake it and play around with it like it's a toy so people faking disorders just makes me and my autistic friend so infuriated
2:15 to be fair, when I got diagnosed with anxiety I was super excited. I have been trying to get medical attention for it because it affected my daily life. I couldn't go out much, school was difficult, and I couldn't relax without having a panic attack. My panic attacks were frequent and happened multiple times every day for 2 years. Sometimes they lasted for 5 hours. It really lowered my self-esteem and messed up some relationships. When I got the diagnosis, I was so happy to finally get the help I needed after trying and being ignored by doctors for 2 years. I started the medication in March and I've never felt better. I have little to no panic attacks. If I have them, I'm just super stressed and they aren't frequent or long lasting. All in all, I can understand why this person may feel excited about a diagnosis if they did get one.
as someone who was diagnosed with adhd at the age of 2 and autism at the age 9 by doctor first adhd sucks, I can't go to sleep if I don't take my medicine. I take medicine so I can focus. I can't get *anything* done without taking meds second autism can only be diagnosed by professionals. It a spectrum of case, it rare to find people on it who suffer the same way. I have so much trouble telling when someone is being serious or if they making a joke
A lot of professionals recommend self-diagnosis due to financial issues or even diagnosis being unavailable, especially as an adult, where you dont really get any benefits from getting a professional diagnosis. Self-diagnosis is possible and its accepted in the autism community, but its a long and hard task, self-diagnosis is not looking at tiktoks for a couple of minutes, its actually doing research, the online tests are a good way to find out where you are on the spectrum, but not if you actually are on the spectrum, you need to dig a little deeper. Also note that a lot of the symptoms of ADHD and Autism are very similar, though they have different causes. For example: An Autistic Person might not engage in social rules because they dont know / dont understand, a Person with ADHD might not engage in social rules because they cant - They both dont engage in social rules, but the cause is a completely different one.
Can someone educate me more on ADHD? I looked at the symptoms and it looks like I have most of them but I want to learn more about it cause I don’t want to end up self diagnosing. I was supposed to get diagnosed but we didn’t do it for some reason.
Actually you know what? I'm the same with almost everything you said, but I was diagnosed at 2 years old with autism. I do though take medication to sleep, and I take medication to focus. Hey, also, what type of autism are you on the spectrum?
@@d4red3v1l8 It takes courage to get a proper test. Lol, nobody has self diagnosed themselves, and actually has gotten it right. Nobody can properly actually self-diagnose.
my brother was disgnosed with ADHD and Autism, it makes me so sad to see ppl that think its cool/quirky to mock people with a mental disorder, if mocking or not, its so disrespectful and it really makes me loose hope in this world.
As someone with actual adhd I can say that I actually was feeling relieved when I heard about my diagnosis because I could finally explain myself… I wasn’t just “lazy, stupid, unreliable and never listing" and could finally explain myself to myself without constantly thinking: "Yeah they are right, I am lazy and I am the worst compared to like everyone else’s who doesn’t struggle as much as me and can just easily do tasks without getting distracted all the time"
3:36 Stimming - or self-stimulatory behaviour - is repetitive or unusual body movement or noises. Stimming might include: hand and finger mannerisms - for example, finger-flicking and hand-flapping. unusual body movements - for example, rocking back and forth while sitting or standing According to this definition technically it could be considered stimmimg
Seriously engween needs to just google what stimming truly is. And the “Stimming” part of the tiktok was also referring to not just the jumping, but also the hand waving. Overall, please just take over Engweens channel, it just hurts to see him saying: “tHAtS nOT sTIMmInG tHaTS JUmpiNG”.
What I want to say to these people: If you actually think you have an undiagnosed disorder, discuss it with your doctor, not make tik toks about it, and if you don’t have a disorder, don’t pretend you do and act like disorders that actually impair people are just cute trends.
and it sucks for ppl who think they do need help cuz when they do try to ask for it their not taken serious cuz of ppl like this they honestly are just so egotistic
As someone who has actually been diagnosed with autism and adhd people who fake it upset me so much as they are part of the reason that I can’t get the help that I need in everyday life
@@solomoon3083 I’m sorry that after technoblades death I looked for fanart that I could use as a profile picture and chose one that I liked but you didn’t
0:33 This is a system, these people SPLIT BECAUSE OF CHILDHOOD TRAUMA! This disorder also creates a shit ton of denial and confusion. so when you fakeclaim someone with a dissociative disorder, it can be harmful. And also this disorder is sooo difficult to get diagnosed with, because doctors rarely know of it and how to help or treat this, speaking from experience.
2:23 as a person who has seen a lot of autism diagnosis videos, one of the things you need to be properly diagnosed is not just having the symptoms, but displaying them at an early age (usually early childhood). So if she’s just saying “I’m becoming less social and my eyes don’t adjust to the light as well as they did, I have autism” she probably doesn’t have it…
As some who actually has Autism, I do feel a little called out by some of these because I relate to some of the “symptoms” like the water one. That aside this is some bullshit. I describe Autism as having all the parts of a neurotypical brain, but it just looks different. What I hate the most is that neurodivergence isn’t even a disorder yet they make it out to be one. It’s not that big of a deal in a negative way or a positive way. It just means you’re different in a distinct way. Fun fact, everyone is different from everyone. As a final note the “era” shit is a load of utter nonsense.
While I like being autistic and it can be described as being different, it is definitely still a disability. Especially symptoms like Sensory Issues are just negatively impacting autistic People in Life, the fact that society is built for neurotypicals is not doing anything to help that. The Problem I have, especially with this video, is that some of these videos are completely valid, a lot are not, and some are... kinda? - The drinking water one, for example, is a symptom, but neurotypicals may do this too. The problem is that one is just a habit and the other one is an actual symptom with a cause that can be explained. If you just look at the symptoms, especially these small ones, they look the same.
@@sjvduwbdubf i agree- i also dont see why we should be so serious all the time- i have ADHD and yeah its hard but that doesnt mean i cant be happy and still enjoy life- doesnt mean i have to be really serious and depressed every time its brought up- ever seen a blind guy cry every day about being blind? no- people learn to accept and even make fun of their situation a but to cope- so i dont get why so many believe your not allowed to be happy and still have fun
“you have severe ADHD.” “YES I KNEW IT!” not the reaction we were all hoping for. adhd is a life ruiner, it breaks relationships, and you just forget things you normally wouldn’t. dates, chores. that’s not all though. zoning out. not paying attention because you simply just CAN’T. adhd paralysis, not being able to sit still. unable to concentrate while being pressured to do things and to do them right. everything is a chore and a struggle. its a great struggle to do things that neurotypical people can do easily everyday.
in this girls defence at around 5:39 people that are neuro divergent (adhd specifically) have problems tellinmg if they are hungry or thirsty wich causes us to get dehydrated easily and when we get water we gulp it very fast because we arent able to realize if we are thirst or not
@@beanyoung5735 Oh no trust me it's not 😂 the generation after ours will be even worst in my opinion. Because they'll be fans of those tiktoks accounts. They'll become even scarier than us. And I think boomers had their load of bullcrap as well. Every generations have had bad stuff, it's more visible nowadays.
I have ADHD and Tourette's and when people fake that, it honestly feels like a slap to the face saying "You don't have it, look at me I'm so quirky becuase I have a disorder"
Disclaimer: I am not a medical professional, this is just my experience To address the “neurodivergent people gravitate towards each other” statement- while i don’t believe if your friend has a disorder you automatically have it as well, or that neurodivergent people are magically drawn to each other or some bs, i do find (as a person with autism who has been recognized by medical professionals) i get along better with other people on the spectrum.
This is a stab at me and others ,these ignorant people don’t understand the struggle of these disorders. I grew up feeling weird and being called “picky” do to my restricted diet, due to sensory issues. And I deal with an anxiety disorder and yet it’s treated as shy quirky crap. So what I’m saying is, people on tiktok wake up, these things we struggle with aren’t quirky.
i fully agree with your points- but that doesnt mean that someone else cant be more okay and accepting with their disorder than others- some got diagnosed early on and got help from the start so they dont see it as much of a negativity- its a part of their life- sure it sucks but that doesnt mean people cant be happy anymore and have to always be serious- but sure i get it- tiktok is known to make everything a aesthetic- and i agree some of this is way over the over the top- and for you it mustn't be easy to have a disorder- and thats valid- please dont take this as critisism as i just wanna voice my opinion
Wait. Can I make a TikTok expressing my autism, as it has been properly diagnosed at age 2 that I have it? Would that make it another "faking" disorders TikTok, or is that then actually real?
@@bloxstarluke if you say your okay with having autism and dont suffer horribly and can nerver be happy again then ppl wont believe you- bc many non autistic ppl think that just bc you have autism you cant do anything that makes you happy anymore and you cant talk about having autism like its just a part of you
As someone with ADHD, I can barely remember my medication and it makes my life so incomplete I'll zone out so badly it really sucks to be in the middle of something and then you zone out and have no idea what's up. It's sad to see someone doing this for clout and to be happy to have a disability because really, it's not fun. At all.
I have autism and ADHD, and it’s so annoying seeing people blatantly fake it for attention on tiktok without even considering how hard it is for people with mental disorders to live their lives. Not to mention that it’s also extremely disrespectful.
As a person with severe ADHD (diagnosed at age nine by doctors) it makes your life so hard and please don’t pretend you have it because it sucks and it’s not funny
ok so, not being rude or anything, just trying to educate some people. The worst thing that can happen during a doctor visit is being told that they cant see anything wrong with you, so it feels like you're just imagining these symptoms, so for the girl who got excited after being told she has adhd, it was most likely a sort of celebration as to knowing what's wrong with you. This is coming from someone who has been diagnosed with adhd and it took doctors almost 17 years to figure out that I have severe anxiety and it caused a lot of distress through my life and when i was told i had anxiety it almost felt like a massive weight off of my shoulders as i could finally get everything to help me with my anxiety.
I remember watching a person who was actually diagnosed with tics and people accused them of faking it and that person had to bring out actual papers of their diagnosis. Pls don’t accuse ppl of faking mental illnesses until you have actual proof 3:52 is where they were shown and also some people with tics tic on beat sometimes
Yes. A lot of these people probably actually are neurodivergent, for example the diagnosing friends / family thing a lot of neurodivergents do this, and especially diagnosing family, when autism is genetic, is more than valid
I'm going to be honest this video felt a little off to me. I wonder if the creator even checked half of these were faked or just chose the /cringy/ ones. Some of these like the person showing how their alters react to touch didnt seem fake? I don't really know but it made me a little uncomfortable that he made this whole video titled "faking disorders" and then didn't even go over a bunch of ones that actually are confirmed fakers like that one girl faking Tourettes.
@romeo.and.joeliet If it makes you uncomfortable then don't watch the video. You do realize he found these videos on a subreddit and that he's not the one running the subreddit. And even tho all of them seemed fake. I mean there's literally a woman who faked Tourette so well that she had 1 million of people following her on tiktok until people realize she was faking it and doing it for attention, you're really naive if you think people who are on tiktok and claim to have a mental illness actually have it.
@@Ruby...X If there are no signs of them faking it, why assume its fake just because its on the internet? The subreddit has been criticized a lot for accusing ANYONE of faking anything for no reason at all
3:34 jumping up and down actually is stimming but remember it is not always used as a self stimulatory behavior and everyone stimms but people who are "neurodivergent" tend to do it more
As a person who has autism and ADHD, I think it's disgusting and absolutely disrespectful that these disgraces FAKE our struggles that we actually have to put up with. It's disgusting. I am very disappointed in people like this. It makes me angry as hell. Make these people stop. It's not fair. We have to actually deal with the real crap. Yet they act like it's so easy, ITS NOT. it's a painful experience, it hurts, and it is ABSOLUTELY NOT SOMETHING TO FAKE!
I am currently crying so hard right now. This is seriously the most beautiful, well put together story ever. I can’t believe how magical it was 1:12. That part truly made me shed a tear. And especially at 6:34 that part was just so truly heart touching words can not describe the series of emotions I felt. I absolutely loved the climax it had insanely excellent detail. Oh and we can’t forget the conclusion. The conclusion was the greatest and saddest conclusion I have ever seen better than any of the books I have read. Thank you so much for creating this absolute masterpiece. This is essentially the most important masterpiece of film history. It is a tragedy that this, it can’t be called a film, but a transcendent emotional experience, will be inaccessible for most. It beautifully encapsulates the human struggle to its basics; suffering, pleasure, faith, despair. It connects with the characters within the viewers, individuals suppressed within our own subconscious. It stays vibrant, fresh, and revolutionizes the art of storytelling and filmmaking while making a damn of statement on what it means to be human. Entertaining, gripping, and simply exhilarating. This might be the most impactful piece of art I’ve come across in my life, and I’m definitely coming back to it in the near future to study it more deeply. this is an absolute masterpiece , I was brought to tears listening to this and seeing the bacon go whirly swirly in a circle countless times. it absolutely moved my soul , and I don't think I can ever be the same. this bacon has changed my entire mental state , I am now at peace with who I am and what I will be doing later in my life. i have forgiven all my enemies and now I am a man of a pacifist life. I will move on , gotta move on , as the song says. the bacon is so inspirational , it shares it vast wisdom with all of us , and we are all so lucky that it would bestow it's great words with us. we are all children on bacon. hail bacon. hail bacon. The spinning bacon, rotating in one direction with this music... This made me tear up. How could such a bacon do such a thing? I'm struck by awe by this masterpiece. Especially when the bacon spins, showing its lightly salt covered tan skin. I can hear the crunch just from here, and so as the beautiful sound of the bacon scraping the dark, smooth velvet floor. The flavor, music and everything can be heard, tasted, seen and felt from a screen. You can really hear the breaths between the music artist, empathizing her love for this rotating bacon. Truly what I call modern art. This was the most legendary performance by any piece of bacon I have ever watched. The acting was top tier and very life changing. This is one of the greatest work from a piece of bacon I have ever seen especially on 57:42.I am currently crying so hard right now. This is seriously the most beautiful, well put together story ever. I can’t believe how magical it was at 1:12. That part truly made me shed a tear. And especially at 6:34 that part was just so truly heart touching words can not describe the series of emotions I felt. I absolutely loved the climax it had insanely excellent detail. Oh and we can’t forget the conclusion. The conclusion was the greatest and saddest conclusion I have ever seen better than any of the books I have read. Thank you so much for creating this absolute masterpiece. This is essentially the most important masterpiece of film history. It is a tragedy that this, it can’t be called a film, but a transcendent emotional experience, will be inaccessible for most. It beautifully encapsulates the human struggle to its basics; suffering, pleasure, faith, despair. It connects with the characters within the viewers, individuals suppressed within our own subconscious. It stays vibrant, fresh, and revolutionizes the art of storytelling and filmmaking while making a damn of statement on what it means to be human. Entertaining, gripping, and simply exhilarating. This might be the most impactful piece of art I’ve come across in my life, and I’m definitely coming back to it in the near future to study it more deeply. this is an absolute masterpiece , I was brought to tears listening to this and seeing the bacon go whirly swirly in a circle countless times. Tt absolutely moved my soul , and i don't think I can ever be the same. this bacon has changed my entire mental state , I am now at peace with who I am and what I will be doing later in my life. i have forgiven all my enemies and now I am a man of a pacifist life. I will move on , gotta move on , as the song says. the bacon is so inspirational , it shares it vast wisdom with all of us , and we are all so lucky that it would bestow it's great words with us. we are all children on bacon. hail bacon. hail bacon. The rat, rotating in one direction with this music... This made me tear up. How could such of a rat do such a thing? I'm struck by awe by this masterpiece. Especially when the rat spins, showing its lightly salt covered tan skin. I can hear the crunch just from here, and so as the beautiful sound of the bacon scraping the dark, smooth velvet floor. The flavor, music and everything can be heard, tasted, seen and felt from a screen. You can really hear the breaths between the music artist, empathizing her love for this rotating bacon. Truly what I call modern art. This was the most legendary performance by any bacon I have ever watched. The acting was top tier and very life changing. This is one of the greatest work from a bacon I have ever seen especially on 17:24. I am currently crying so hard right now. This is seriously the most beautiful, well put together story ever.

The graphics, the animation, the music, so much thought was put into it. This has remined me that you can do anything you put your mind to. Not even mentioning the memories, this makes me feel like an infant again, just laying my eyes on this beautiful masterpiece gives me all the good feelings in life. I also understand what happiness is again from this. Not even to mention the most incredible part that is 2:10. Bacon spinning has changed my life for the better.

It really inspired me to become an outstanding young man. Thank you.
2:19 idk if it's just me but, knowing what I have is actually makes me feel happy, not because I have it, but because I know why I have problems in certain things or do certain things
This ticks me off beyond belief. I have medically diagnosed autism and to see people claim they have a mental disease for, in essence, views , is incredibly irritating. Even worse is how these mental diseases can be romanticized. It is not a "happy" thing to have autism (or any other mental disorder) at all .People who are close to someone with a mental disease can tell you how it is not a "happy" thing. It is not a fun experience and it should definitely not be almost "bragged about" as some sort of "social status" (all this is my opinion).
Yeah, there are the negatives, sensory issues fuck me up and the fact that society is built for neurotypicals doesnt make that any better - but there are a lot of neurodivergent people who actually like being neurodivergent in a way I forgot to say: Of course, if anyone doesnt, which is more than understandable, that is totally okay
Wait. Can I make a TikTok expressing my autism, as it has been properly diagnosed at age 2 that I have it? Would that make it another "faking" disorders TikTok, or is that then actually real?
@@sjvduwbdubf I love your comments. They make me very happy, I liked reading this comment section and finding all your random comments telling the truth.
As someone with ADHD, these kind of people INFURIATE me. They have no idea how hard it can be for us to do simple tasks and think its just the coolest thing in the world… if they want ADHD so badly, they can take mine…
As a autistic child and having suspicion of ADHD and more disorders such as GAD, I really hate those TikToks. I really suffer from my autism and GAD, to a point i have to vomit everything in my stomach to get a relief from the anxiety. It's not something cool to have disorders. That's why ppl with those kinds of disorders get advantages.
I was diagnosed with adhd since childhood but only understood it truly through my peers. I was also diagnosed with autism at 18 but didn’t understand you don’t have to be a vegetable to be incredibly disabled.
Screening/Accurate self-assessments are great to know if you should talk to your doctor about things like autism, but NEVER take it as a diagnosis. omg
I have autism and adhd, I’ve known this since I got diagnosed in kindergarten, and I genuinely hate people who think the things I have make them “quirky” or “not like the other girls” (I’m a boy), it annoys me so much
as someone with both adhd and autism I honestly wonder how the hell these people live normal lives without the guilt of knowing that they're doing something wrong
As someone with mild autism, anyone who thinks ASD is a blessing is completely wrong. I feel insulted whenever people spread misinformation about this. Treat us like we’re normal and we’ll be fine.
No. Dont treat us like neurotypicals. Thats the biggest mistake. Treat us human. Try to learn things about different disabilities, try to support us in conversation, ... By treating us like neurotypicals youre just gonna make it worse. Yeah, autism has a lot of negatives, but the biggest one, the social one, is just a downside because of the fact that society is built for neurotypicals.
Personaly, after I was diagnosed I turned to humor to try and feel better. In elementary school, I knew nobody else with adhd, and I was raised to believe I was different because I was born a bit differently. Middle school was hard for me, people expected me to mature and grow up, and I didn't take to it - I was always set out and in trouble for being loud, disruptive, forgetting and being forced to explain why I hadn't been taking my medicine. When I got to high school, I met my best friend. His name is corrin, and he has Autism. His autism effects his attention span, sensory input to lights, noises, textures in fabric food and other things - as well as his ability to do certain things and understand social ques. Struggling with adhd, and hearing (and seeing) how corrin has to live with his Autism just makes, me wonder why people want this for themselves. It's not fun, it's exhausting, mentally and physically. People are weird and wrong in the head.
these people seriously make me lose hope in humanity. As someone who was actually diagnosed BY A DOCTOR, i can say i have multiple disorders (ADHD,autism,anxiety problems..etc) and i cannot believe people are acting like its such a normal thing and that they're actually proud of having these disorders like wtf
no because as someone whos been diagnosed professionally with adhd, autism, and dcd the “finding out through tiktok” is kinda real. i started looking into the possibility of neurodivergency pre diagnosis after seeing some people sharing their experiences online. also the “yes i knew it” is insanely real because having confirmation that you’ve successfully figured out why you’ve felt different to your peers for your whole life is super exciting and relieving
Yes i first wondered if i was autistic when one of my autistic friends said i might have it. And then i saw some tiktoks abt it and started to do more research (out of tiktok) and there is a very high chance i have it. Almost everyone around me think i have it exept my parents. I havent gotten a proper diagnosis so i dont wanna claim i have it tho
my old friend diagnosed herself with autism, tourettes, adhd, and anxiety. she believes she has all of these because of online quizzes. she then goes on to diagnose her dad, and brother with autism, her mom with multiple mental disorders, and saying her 12 year old sister is lesbian. she would even diagnose her friends (including me) with autism because she would say that autistic people group together. honestly once she graduates highschool, and goes to collage or whatever, I hope she realizes that it was so wrong of her to act how she did. its truly so so embarrassing, she has been my friend since i started school (and now we're juniors in highschool, so pretty long time) and she really is a good person but what she was doing disturbed me so much, hope shes fine now though :/
2:57 i have adhd and stimming can be really anything and you do it without really knowing your doing it so, yes her jumping could be stimming if she really is neurodivergent
My boyfriend of 3 years has Tourette’s we are graduating this year together and he has so many panic attacks about him having a tic attack souring the ceromony, sometimes it gets so bad I have to sneak over to his house to calm him down, he will stress himself out so much he throws up and gets sick, I have to be there to help him clean it up and to bandage him up because he’ll hurt himself on accident from ticking. This man has been through hell and back. I’d not know why anyone would want this.
Bro I HATE when people have the guts, the nerve, the brain cells to actually fake an eating disorder. It is so annoying like imagine just being a normal human with Tourette’s let’s say, and some dumb tiktoker makes content out of your eating disorder and everything you went through.
Fact Check on the Jumping Stim: Yes, it is a stim for some people with Autism/Autism Spectrum Disorder/ADHD. But at a trampoline park it is a pretty logical thing to do.
To the one about them asking to be tested for ADHD: I can understand being excited to find out something about yourself, but that's a bit much.. for example: I've just recently been diagnosed with OCD and I'm glad because it makes things easier to treat and live with but I wouldn't go as far as they did...❤️❤️ Seeing these people breaks my heart because it mocks people who actually go through this stuff...
as someone who has adhd and a very close friend with autism, god damn this shit is disrespectful! both he and i struggle and ppl rlly out here making it an aesthetic? in my autism era??? wtf..
As someone with (currently professionally undiagnosed, but my therapist said I have severe signs of) ADHD, IT 👏 IS 👏 N O T 👏 FUN! I have to deal with my parents yelling at me for zoning out during homework, getting bad results from my substitute teachers, zoning out and completely shutting off during sport and/or playing with my younger sister, ADHD attacks (which are 100% NOT fun), and people telling me I’m LUCKY. LUCKY??? I CANNOT NAME ONE REASON I AM LUCKY.
1:05 I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 6. And people bully me for it a lot of the time, and we have people FAKING IT? like imagine getting bullied since age six for having a behaviour problem you can’t control and seeing someone use it for clout on tiktok
Personally the worst trend to me is the autism one especially since I have a nephew that was MEDICALLY diagnosed with autism at 2 it’s disgusting that they’re making it a “quirky” and “cute” trend THIS IS ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE IT IS NOT QUIRKY IT IS NOT CUTE IT IS A HORRIBLE DISORDER THAT MESSES WITH PEOPLES LIVES EVERYDAY I CANT BELIEVE THESE PEOPLE Edit:he’s seven and I feel so bad that he’s gonna grow up in a world like this…
it definitely can be very affirming to get diagnosed with something. some people spend years trying to find out what's "wrong" with them and when your symptoms finally get a name it can be awesome. i've been suspecting that i'm autistic for at least 8 years and i've finally been tested and getting the results next week and if my suspections are confirmed i'm gonna be so happy because i've been struggling all my life with so many things and a diagnosis would clear it all up
Me and my brother are autistic and we used to literally have foot battles, which to us meant that we would be on either side of a couch and literally push each others legs with our feet until either one of us screamed "Fine! You win!" Ahh yes, childhood. I miss it.
2:10 to be fair i can totally understand why someone would be happy to be diagnosed with ADHD. I mean, the diagnosis doesn't give them any new problems - they were already having problems with no explanation so it's understandable they'd be happy for an explanation, plus they can now get medication to stop those problems! So yeah these fakers are awful but I can understand that at least.
I have autism and ADHD and this just pains me since having a disorder or disability that you can not control is not all fun and games like I get bullied for my disorders. But then there's people that are faking disorders it makes me annoyed.And also with the stimming some people do tend to jump whilst stimming but everyone stims differently so yeah.
Idk if its different in other parts of the world but getting tested for autism is a very long process and isn't just a quick trip or a scan it took a couple of months for me to finish getting tested even though I'm low on the autism spectrum compared to other people I know
A lot of professionals even recommend self-diagnosis due to financial issues or the fact its simply unavailable, especially for adults, where there isnt really any benefit to getting a professional diagnosis. And now dont get me wrong, self-diagnosis is not simply looking at tiktoks, its actually doing research, its not taking random tests either, as they just tell you where you are on the spectrum, but cant reliably tell you if you are autistic or not - you actually have to put effort into it.
@@sjvduwbdubf sources? a quick google search looking at credible medical websites say they highly don't recommend it due to the dangers, i want to know what website you looked at to come to the conclusion doctors support it. (edit: what i googled was "do doctors recommend self diagnosing mental health issues")
@@mechanicalplague well, is it mental health issues or autism? doctors recommend self-diagnosis to lots of people, after all, why would you get diagnosed if there arent really any benefits, when in some countries you have to pay and squeeze into an extremely long queue? why would you pay and wait for a piece of paper telling you youre autistic? there arent any benefits to a diagnosis other than confirmation here.
@@sjvduwbdubf okay but who would benefit from it other then having a label you can't back up? I see it like self diagnosing pneumonia when it's just bronchitis and wanting steroids when you just need antibiotics, it's pointless. But go off thinking self diagnosis is liked by doctors while I have multiple doctors saying to not do it, researching and going to the doctor with it and then seeing what they say is what they mean, lol.
@@mechanicalplague well a diagnosis is nothing but a label too, except a professional, who learned a lot about the topic, backs it up. if you learn a lot about the topic its safe to say that in the end its the same thing.
Autistic teenager here, i just wanna go off because i got mad as hell. The woman who was happy she had ADHD (shes prolly faking it because who would be happy to have a life altering incurable mental problem) made me so mad. Its disrespectful towards people who are actually autistic or have ADHD, or any other disorder because to the person faking it its a quirky trend but to the person who actually has it its very serious. Just stop faking disorders we all know its fake as hell and cherry on top, some people fake these disorders to spread misinformaion about them and that scares me
My partner has diagnosed DID and its one of the most difficult thing to deal with in our lives right now. The fact that people just pretend to have it as some sort of trend or game, its just disgusting.
1:55 was so assaulting because i have family members with ADHD and know mostly everything about it from learning what it means for someone to be born with it
Hi, just wanted to come on here and inform everyone a bit more! The first Tiktok that got shown was about DID and the amount of alters a person has. There is no limit on how many alters you can have, DID is a very complex trauma disorder which can cause someone to have over 200 hundred alters, and it's not even as rare as you might think for someone to share a body with more than 10-20 people when they have DID. Now, the next few are more about self-diagnosing. Of course, diagnosing yourself is not *the* best way to go about it, although studies show that about 80-90% of people who self-diagnose with either autism or ADHD, actually do have it. Next, you ask for a fact check on if jumping up and down is stimming. Well, the answer is yes. Jumping up and down *is*, indeed, a form of stimming! In fact, it's a very common stim to have. Reminder that stimming is not something that is 'not simple' or 'weird'. Everyone stims, except people with disorders stim more often/the stims are more intense. Examples of stimming are: Clicking pens, repeated tutting, bouncing your leg, shaking your hands, walking or turning in circles, etc. Of course, there are people out there who actually fake disorders, though r/fakedisordercringe is one of the worst sources to get information from, as it takes any symptom that is uncommon or something they do not believe is a symptom, or even just a person living with a disorder showing genuine happiness, as a "clear sign" that said person is faking their disorder. Now about the caption. It puts Gen Z in a very bad light. There are many adults who do the exact same thing but just don't go as viral as Gen Z'ers do. Why, I cannot say. But Gen Z is not the only one doing this. In fact, Gen Z is one of the most well-informed, inclusive, and respectful generation. Don't forget that Boomers are actively choosing to opress minorities, Millenials are the ones responsible for raising Gen Z so y'all have no reason to complain about us, really. Additionally, Millenials are starting to take after Boomers. Gen Z is f-ed up because of earlier generations. Remember, this is not a hate comment, just trying to inform people on this! I will list my sources below this comment, feel free to add anything I missed!
i actually have been diagnosed with autism like i dont even fucking know what stimming is. why are people tryna make it a quirky trend. it’s literally worse than not having it.
Stimming is just repetitive motions or senses people use to self regulate emotions Such as re playing a certain song over and over or leg shaking/ hand flapping (these are just a few examples of course) These just help with decompression It’s also in the dsm5 too (Doesn’t mean that every person who often stims is autistic of course just tends to be a more frequent trait in those with autism ) :3 If you’re still confused I highly recommend doing some research into the topic and teaching yourself something new:)
I was actually upset when I saw the ‘Autistic Era’. Autism isnt like a phase. Its a thing you have until you’re dead, and perhaps if there is an afterlife- you’ll still have it. And trust me you dont want to have Autism if you actually wanna be the one to make 50 billion friends.
I think that it can be relieving to find out you have ADHD because so many people that spend their childhood undiagnosed spend a lot of their time wondering what is wrong with them, and having an actual medical diagnosis for it and knowing there's treatment options to make things easier can be really relieving or joyous.
I have autism and I confirm that jumping up and down can be a form of stimming. To put it simply, stimming is a repetitive action that helps self regulate yourself when you feel overwhelmed with stress or when you're getting really excited.
It’s really sad seeing how people r wanting to get mental disorders without even caring about how much it may actually affects someone who actually has it
3:39 Jumping up and down can actually be stimming, lol. But this isn't exclusive to neurodivergent people since neurotypical kids do the same. It's just that most people outgrow this behaviour, but adults who are neurodivergent may use it to self-regulate (especially people with autism). It can also be used during therapy for people with sensory needs. I know this because I learned about it in university. It's a pretty common sensory integration technique (a type of therapy) used to help with self-regulation. No hate, just thought I'd provide you with some info :) An article I found about it is called "Sensory integration techniques applied to children with learning disabilities: An outcome study"
I wanted to emphasize that there is no shame in neurodivergent people using jumping as a way to self-regulate, as I'm aware that saying that neurotypical kids "outgrow" using jumping as a stim seems to imply that neurodivergent adults who jump as a stim aren't mature. That isn't what I meant, I just couldn't find a better way to describe it...
9:41 embrace autism is actually really helpful to see if you should get a diagnosis, but i would NOT say that it IS a diagnosis. sure, it might be a step in the direction of "hey, i think i have autistic traits. could this just be me being weird or do i need to seek help?" But it is *NOT* a diagnosis to tell you if you have autism. I brought it up in a therapy session with my therapist (he isnt a psychiatrist so he cant diagnose me personally or anything) and we talked about it on and off for months. A couple weeks ago he showed me embrace autism and we took some tests. He pushed me to get an actual assesment done by a doctor, and i did. Just because I got a high score on a--pretty much--buzzfeed type quiz doesnt mean im going to go around and say im autistic. Because who knows if i am or until i get the results back. Thats for the doctor to decide, not me or some webisite. Though, let me add- no shade to Embrace Autism, they're the ones that made me want to get a diagnosis. I could just be weird and relate to people with autism edit: the fact that they said theyre "in their autism era" made me throw up in my mouth a little bit .

In defense of the ADHD "Yes, I knew it!" Person, having being told your whole life that you are neurotypical and struggling your whole life with the symptoms of ADHD while being told you don't have it, it can be a total relief being told that you are right, you do have ADHD, and there's a chance you could get medicine to help you with your focusing. So being diagnosed with a chance of medication could be the reason why they said "Yes, I knew it!"
True
Yeah honestly I think I might have anxiety and I would be happy to hear that I do have it, that means there's a reason why I go through a lot of the struggles in my life that I don't really understand
I did kind have that moment when I was given my mental health assessment (mostly testing for autism but turns out I have both neurodivergencies and mentally illnesses)
Yeah, that's understandable....its a mind fu(k after years of not knowing what is going on with your body/mind. I was dismissed for 25 years, until it was no longer my word they had to listen to......I now have severe osteoarthritis that they can see on film......I wouldn't be as bad as I am if they listened to me. The mind fu(k part comes in when you are scared to death they won't find a reason for what's going on.....I know I don't want to have anything, but if I find out I do...I can give it a name and try to treat the symptoms, also the validation is so important for your mental health! I'm so sad this is something people fake for attention.....I will lie, cheat and steal to try and hide my health problems. These people will eventually "grow up" and be mortified they did this!
You should see the rest of the video though…it’s just them diagnosis shopping for 4 more disorders.
I had a "yes I knew it" kind of reaction when I was diagnosed with autism because it's nice to finally have an explanation. Also fun fact about autism stimming is something that we do because we find it calming and my therapist thinks my obsessive pacing (multiple miles a day) may be stimming for me.
I was like 4 when i got diagnosed with adhd but honestly if I was told my entire life I don’t have adhd and not knowing why I couldnt pay attention, and suddenly there’s a reason why, I’d understand why you’d go “yes I knew it.” I had a similar reaction when I was diagnosed with anemia, like I knew something was off, and my mom told me I was probably just overreacting, I wasn’t happy having anemia but at least I knew what was wrong and had a way to treat it.
Also as someone who doesn’t have autism but does have adhd, (stims are present in adhd as well) there are little things I do that bring me happy feelings and all that so while jumping up and down on a trampoline in generals gonna bring you the happy chemicals. Technically any action that stimulates you to create serotonin or dopamine is a stim. But yeah I don’t know why she posted that specifically, people have no self respect.
@@Abs0408can confirm with trampolines and happy chemicals.
I’m autistic and have ADHD w/ Generalised Anxiety Disorder. I went to a trampoline park at… 6? 7? Anyway, was a bit overwhelmed but veryyyy happy chemical

As a person who used to get bullied for actually having ADHD and then seeing people FAKE it for ATTENTION just boils my blood. Im absolutely speechless on how these people are HAPPY for having a mental disorder-
Fr and if they post it seemingly capturing the exact moment they do the “quirky thing” You can tell they’re faking. Or they have a film crew on them 24/7 (unlikely)
Same. I mean I’m not too deeply upset cuz they’re honestly making fools of themselves. But it’s not something you can mimic. People know I have ADHD before I even tell them just by being around me.
Same here, I mean we all have different experiences with bullying, especially those with ADHD. But, people faking? Whole other piece of shish
I know what you mean.

Getting diagnosed after struggling can be a happy moment
The person being mad about "only" having BPD pissed me off so much. I had BPD symptoms since my early childhood and got it diagnosed as soon as I was old enough (because there's some sort of legal regulation in regards to diagnosing BPD in children, so the doctors had to wait until I turned 18). And let me tell you, it's not "only" BPD. I mean, I don't know what life is like for mentally healthy people, but living with BPD really sucks. It got to the point where I asked my friend, who has epilepsy and hemiparalysis which are definitly way more severe conditions than mine, if she ever thinks about the fact that she has to live with her disabilities for the rest of her life and if she ever wondered what life as a healthy person would feel like. That conversation happened while we sat on her bed and she had to hold me in her arms because I couldn't stop crying and I didn't even know why. I'm sure life isn't easy for anyone, but from what I know, there are many additional struggles for people like me. I wish I had the mental stability to get a job or finally finish school. I wish I wouldn't be so overly emotional all the time and things wouldn't hurt me so much. I wish I could stop chasing all my friends away because they can't keep up with my clingyness and completely unreasonable trust issues. If you'd tell me for the 10th time in the past 2 months that you won't leave me behind one day and that I really do matter to you, I wish I could believe you. Living with a mental disorder is no joke and I sincerely wish that there would be less people having to suffer from such.
Exactly. These people think having a disability is "cool" and "quirky" but it's rlly not. Like there isn't anything wrong with actually having a disability bc the person can't help it but it's not fun having to live with them. I have both, severe medical issues and mental disabilities, and let me tell u neither of them are fun having to deal with everyday. For my medical, I have to deal with: Severe chest pains out of the blue without warning even when I'm relaxing, almost having heart attacks, severe foot cramps, severe body aches from head to toe, running out of breath easily, almost passing out or actually passing out, etc. My mom and I have fought for more than 10 years to find what's wrong, I'm only 18 as of now, and still nothing. It's been an emotionally bumpy road with a lot of anger and tears shed. For mental disabilities, I have: ADHD, Autism, SPD, A lisp, Insomnia, Hypersomnia, Anxiety, PTSD, and some others. They all affect me severely daily and seeing people fake or make fun of them pisses me off. And I have a brother with severe autism that can't even do things for himself so I have to protect him and stuff so seeing people do stuff like these videos pisses me off knowing that fact even more. People need to understand it's not fun or funny or a flex having to deal with actual issues almost everyday or everyday.
Jeez that is a lot of typing yippee
hey, 18 y/o with autism here and I'd just like to say that I appreciate it loads that u mock people like these. I was far from happy to hear that both a doctor and therapist diagnosed me with autism, but it's disgusting that people act happy about having any mental disorder, especially if it's self diagnosed.. it'll always be a mystery to me. love u mate, keep up the amusing content!
You are my parent now ☆ (I got a autism diagnosis with my OWN MONEY from working a part-time job [\Cause I'm 14\] and my mom DISWONED ME because the professional said I was autistic after doing tests with me for a couple weeks [or months, I can't even tell anymore- it was in april and I took it out of state BC I was there with family for awhile and the time is different] and so now I live with my dad✔♡
I’m autistic too and I hate these lizards trying to mimic humanity but I’d also hate to see a world where people just call anyone with a real disorder a liar and that they don’t have it because there were just too many lizards mimicking that people couldn’t tell what was real and what wasn’t
Dumb a$$ people who fake disorders are just literal garbage, and imma fix some hate by spreading love around the comments!
Now tell me, do you have any special interests or hyperfixations you want to share anyone?
Same!!
tbf, sometimes it CAN be good to hear that ur thoughts that something was wrong are confirmed, and you aren't crazy or something. i almost cried tears of joy when i got my adhd diagnosis (not because i was thinking "omg, finally! i can get sympathy and free internet points!!!" lol) because it was so relieving to hear that not ONLY did someone believe me on my struggles, but that it was a diagnosable thing, and that medication could actually help me with my focusing. having a mental disorder isnt a fun thing in any sense of the word, but honestly finding out i have adhd has really helped me think more about my mental health, so it's got its ups and downs lol.
i just wish people wouldn't pretend to have mental disorders because it's actually a serious thing, and people pretending they have stuff like that and lying about/manipulating the diagnostic requirements can be really bad for people who are yet to be diagnosed/trying to get a diagnosis. plus, what do you really get out of that anyways?? its not like its some kind of privilege to have a mental disorder, its awful. all you get is attention (usually bad), and id be willing to bet that a lot of these people didn't get enough attention from their parents LOL.
I feel bad for the ppl who legit have disorders and have to see this
i'm autistic lmao
@@nik_nikkii how do I at people
I have autism
Thank you. I have ASD and it's level 1 on the spectrum.
@@_Abnormality_bugs_ Which one are you on the spectrum?
Self-diagnosing things like ADHD, autism, etc after barely doing any research is stupid. They should stop seeing every little thing as a symptom and just go to the doctor to get tested. it's not that hard bruh
Edit: I forgot that getting a diagnosis isn't simple. However, they could do more research, because surface-level research isn't always the answer.
Bruh
I will agree with the first part, but diagnosis isn’t always possible due to how much it costs. I think it is worth it at least talking to a professional (that’s what I did)
I have adhd, you can tell.
Diagnosing isn't always possible for people but you're right with the not doing research part, if you actually search you could diagnose (even test yourself when you can afford it)
Ehhh the last part isn’t very true, diagnosis is not easy to get
I was diagnosed at 23 as autistic, and I was so happy that I finally had it. Not because I could go around saying "oh I'm autistic, so I'll be popular!", but because I finally had an answer for why I am the way I am. I truly thought that I would never be able to find love, a job, or even have my own home, because I knew that something was different about me. After my diagnosis, I began to realize that I can have a job, have my own home, and find love. I'm not weird, or not normal. I'm just autistic. And I am normal. Nothing wrong with being normal
agreed
As far as I know, neurodivergent people do actually tend to gravitate towards each other. And that kinda makes sense because you'd be friends with people who process the world in a similar way to you and understand your struggles and what makes you happy. But at the same time that absolutely does not mean that if you're neurodivergent and you're friends aren't, that you should diagnose them yourself without them seeing a doctor. Just because you're neurodivergent doesn't mean they are smh. Also I actually have ADHD and pots. Too things that have recently become rly popular to fake on TikTok and it's ridiculous. For ADHD I literally saw a TikTok of someone calling it an aesthetic and for pots there was a trend of sitting down and standing up repetitively until you "pass out". Both are ridiculous and make fun of the real struggles of both. (Also if you don't know what pots is, it's just when your blood doesn't rly circulate properly through your body. Limbs can fall asleep and feel numb faster, ppl with it get rly dizzy standing up and can sometimes pass out, they have to be super careful about salt vs sugar intake, low and high spikes in blood pressure, etc.)
This happened yesterday to me:
I was sitting at my lunch table, when someone next to me yelled "OH I DO THAT CUZ OF MY AUTISM" And as an autistic person, hearing someone else was autistic, I instantly wanted to ask them about it (as most autism is different with each person)
....And then they told me they self diagnosed it after they saw a video on tik tok
It really pisses me off. Dont self diagnose people. You can go "oh, I think I have this" But not "Oh, I do have this" Until you get tested
"self-diagnosis" is valid, its even recommended by professionals sometimes due to financial issues or the fact its unavailable and its accepted in the autistic community
but self-diagnosis is not simply looking at tiktoks, you actually have to put effort into it, its a long process.
@@sjvduwbdubf Yeah, thats what I meant lol
If you self diagnose, you do have to put a ton of research into it
What if you can’t get tested for it?
@@d4red3v1l8 I believe in that case it would be okay to self diagnose (with a TON of research)
Lmao bro. As a properly diagnosed autistic person, I can confirm to you that that is not what an autistic kid would do at school. Even I don't want to yell that lol. How embarrassing.
ok so the “YES I KNEW IT” for the adhd diagnosis…. It’s not terrible and I think quite relatable to some maybe. I for example felt extremely relieved because FINALLY after years of self harm and trying to better myself and failing I got an answer to my “why”.
There’s a very good chance she felt like that too.
yeah that one i understood, it’s not celebrating the fact that she has adhd, but rather finally being believed and having a definite answer as to why she was struggling. simply knowing you have adhd (through diagnosis) can release a lot of the guilt and shame associated with “being lazy” and “not trying hard enough”
She was faking. Is the problem, she wouldn't be in the video if she wasn't faking. the video is literally about people faking stuff.
@@subliminaltripminedspaces sometimes people think that because you don't look or act a certain way you're faking it. I've seen people get uploaded to that sub reddit even though they weren't
Small correction at 2:10, lots of undiagnosed people are happy to get a diagnosis bc it explains behavior that they thought was just because they were a freak :) not speaking for everyone tho
Tbh yeah. My diagnosis I wouldn’t say was happy bc it was like “hey you’re gonna have to deal with this incurable thing for the rest of your life” but it was relieving and validating to hear I wasn’t crazy or overreacting and that there was smth wrong with my brain.
Yup
My parents certainly were
You just spoke for me bro
people with disorders aren't ''freak''s
As someone with adhd, it’s annoying, like im clumsy and it’s really annoying, when someone does something like tapping their pencil against the table my adhd makes it feel more annoying, im not as aware of what my body needs at times, for example: when I need water, im not aware so then later it gets worse and I really need to drink water, same with food, and using the barthroom, etc, and it’s really hard to focus in class. Don’t fake disorders. You shouldn’t be happy to get a disorder because you think it’s ‘qUiRkY’, once you actually experience a disorder, it’s NOT FUN.
*accidentally posts a newspaper article on a RUclips comment*
Btw I am doctor diagnosed with adhd and have to take medicine every day to help me focus better.
I, for one, was pretty damn happy to receive my official ADHD diagnosis, because I have struggled with its symptoms all my life, it made my school life unbearable. Like, at the end of a school day my brain was so burned out that I couldn't recognize my classmates' faces and voices anymore. I used to forget where I was, where I was going, the fact that I *was* going somewhere. It was excruciating, forcing yourself to focus on math and science for at least a minute, failing to do it over and over again, and burning your brains to crisp while doing so.
I also have a ton of other symptoms; heck, you can put me into a studying book on psychiatry as an example because of how the signs of my ADHD are clear and evident. And despite all that noone cared and noone believed that something might be genuinely wrong with my brain. They used to say something like "oh, but you are so smart, you speak 4 languages, you can't possibly have troubles with attention and memory", and no duh, I *am* good with languages because it's the *ONLY* thing I can focus on, and linguistics have been my hyperfixation for 10 years straight.
ADHD wasn't and isn't ruining my life, the lack of understanding and proper treatment was and is. Nobody cared that I have days when I simply *can't* function because my brain refuses to rev up. Nobody cared that I have troubles upholding a conversation as I will simply forget how to talk at some point and sometimes can't string a coherent sentence together due to my brain running 58 other conversation at the same time inside itself. Nobody cared how isolated it made me (and for men, who often struggle with isolation already, it is very dangerous). Nobody cared how many things I simply couldn't do due to my condition, they just labeled me as lazy, undisciplined and lacking. Learning that I have a genuine disability explained everything, it was liberating - but infuriating at the same time, because it made me realize how unfair I was treated throughout my life, and still am, and still will be, 'cuz I live in a country where noone gives a damn about disabled folks, they're either ignored or... worse, much worse.
I wish all my fellow neurodivergent folks luck and strengh.
Yeah, it’s better to know you have it and do not just have attention problems. Still sucks though
I wish people knew how much this effects people who actually have the disorder
Amazing video as usual tho
My autistic friend felt super sad when he saw the "Me in my autistic era" because, like, it's a real thing and real people with real feelings have it and people fake it and play around with it like it's a toy so people faking disorders just makes me and my autistic friend so infuriated
2:15 to be fair, when I got diagnosed with anxiety I was super excited. I have been trying to get medical attention for it because it affected my daily life. I couldn't go out much, school was difficult, and I couldn't relax without having a panic attack. My panic attacks were frequent and happened multiple times every day for 2 years. Sometimes they lasted for 5 hours. It really lowered my self-esteem and messed up some relationships. When I got the diagnosis, I was so happy to finally get the help I needed after trying and being ignored by doctors for 2 years. I started the medication in March and I've never felt better. I have little to no panic attacks. If I have them, I'm just super stressed and they aren't frequent or long lasting. All in all, I can understand why this person may feel excited about a diagnosis if they did get one.
i was diagnosed recently and i also couldn’t help but get excited for the same reason!
as someone who was diagnosed with adhd at the age of 2 and autism at the age 9 by doctor
first adhd sucks, I can't go to sleep if I don't take my medicine. I take medicine so I can focus. I can't get *anything* done without taking meds
second autism can only be diagnosed by professionals. It a spectrum of case, it rare to find people on it who suffer the same way. I have so much trouble telling when someone is being serious or if they making a joke
A lot of professionals recommend self-diagnosis due to financial issues or even diagnosis being unavailable, especially as an adult, where you dont really get any benefits from getting a professional diagnosis.
Self-diagnosis is possible and its accepted in the autism community, but its a long and hard task, self-diagnosis is not looking at tiktoks for a couple of minutes, its actually doing research, the online tests are a good way to find out where you are on the spectrum, but not if you actually are on the spectrum, you need to dig a little deeper.
Also note that a lot of the symptoms of ADHD and Autism are very similar, though they have different causes.
For example: An Autistic Person might not engage in social rules because they dont know / dont understand, a Person with ADHD might not engage in social rules because they cant - They both dont engage in social rules, but the cause is a completely different one.
Can someone educate me more on ADHD? I looked at the symptoms and it looks like I have most of them but I want to learn more about it cause I don’t want to end up self diagnosing. I was supposed to get diagnosed but we didn’t do it for some reason.
Actually you know what? I'm the same with almost everything you said, but I was diagnosed at 2 years old with autism. I do though take medication to sleep, and I take medication to focus.
Hey, also, what type of autism are you on the spectrum?
@@d4red3v1l8 It takes courage to get a proper test. Lol, nobody has self diagnosed themselves, and actually has gotten it right. Nobody can properly actually self-diagnose.
@@bloxstarluke love how can’t see your second comment but for question I'm on the high functioning side of the spectrum
my brother was disgnosed with ADHD and Autism, it makes me so sad to see ppl that think its cool/quirky to mock people with a mental disorder, if mocking or not, its so disrespectful and it really makes me loose hope in this world.
As someone with actual adhd I can say that I actually was feeling relieved when I heard about my diagnosis because I could finally explain myself… I wasn’t just “lazy, stupid, unreliable and never listing" and could finally explain myself to myself without constantly thinking: "Yeah they are right, I am lazy and I am the worst compared to like everyone else’s who doesn’t struggle as much as me and can just easily do tasks without getting distracted all the time"
3:36 Stimming - or self-stimulatory behaviour - is repetitive or unusual body movement or noises. Stimming might include: hand and finger mannerisms - for example, finger-flicking and hand-flapping. unusual body movements - for example, rocking back and forth while sitting or standing
According to this definition technically it could be considered stimmimg
Seriously engween needs to just google what stimming truly is.
And the “Stimming” part of the tiktok was also referring to not just the jumping, but also the hand waving.
Overall, please just take over Engweens channel, it just hurts to see him saying: “tHAtS nOT sTIMmInG tHaTS JUmpiNG”.
What I want to say to these people: If you actually think you have an undiagnosed disorder, discuss it with your doctor, not make tik toks about it, and if you don’t have a disorder, don’t pretend you do and act like disorders that actually impair people are just cute trends.
It's annoying
and it sucks for ppl who think they do need help cuz when they do try to ask for it their not taken serious cuz of ppl like this they honestly are just so egotistic
As someone who has actually been diagnosed with autism and adhd people who fake it upset me so much as they are part of the reason that I can’t get the help that I need in everyday life
It just annoys me. I'm looking at my autism, and I'm looking at the Tik Tok's and I'm thinking: nah

@@froogsleegs ok.
2:23 as a person who has seen a lot of autism diagnosis videos, one of the things you need to be properly diagnosed is not just having the symptoms, but displaying them at an early age (usually early childhood). So if she’s just saying “I’m becoming less social and my eyes don’t adjust to the light as well as they did, I have autism” she probably doesn’t have it…

As some who actually has Autism, I do feel a little called out by some of these because I relate to some of the “symptoms” like the water one. That aside this is some bullshit.
I describe Autism as having all the parts of a neurotypical brain, but it just looks different.
What I hate the most is that neurodivergence isn’t even a disorder yet they make it out to be one.
It’s not that big of a deal in a negative way or a positive way. It just means you’re different in a distinct way. Fun fact, everyone is different from everyone.
As a final note the “era” shit is a load of utter nonsense.
While I like being autistic and it can be described as being different, it is definitely still a disability.
Especially symptoms like Sensory Issues are just negatively impacting autistic People in Life, the fact that society is built for neurotypicals is not doing anything to help that.
The Problem I have, especially with this video, is that some of these videos are completely valid, a lot are not, and some are... kinda? - The drinking water one, for example, is a symptom, but neurotypicals may do this too. The problem is that one is just a habit and the other one is an actual symptom with a cause that can be explained. If you just look at the symptoms, especially these small ones, they look the same.
Dude I drink water like that I don’t think it means anything
@@sjvduwbdubf Valid points. I agree. :)
hey bud did you forget that autism is a spectrum
@@sjvduwbdubf i agree- i also dont see why we should be so serious all the time- i have ADHD and yeah its hard but that doesnt mean i cant be happy and still enjoy life- doesnt mean i have to be really serious and depressed every time its brought up- ever seen a blind guy cry every day about being blind? no- people learn to accept and even make fun of their situation a but to cope- so i dont get why so many believe your not allowed to be happy and still have fun
“you have severe ADHD.”
“YES I KNEW IT!”
not the reaction we were all hoping for. adhd is a life ruiner, it breaks relationships, and you just forget things you normally wouldn’t. dates, chores. that’s not all though. zoning out. not paying attention because you simply just CAN’T. adhd paralysis, not being able to sit still. unable to concentrate while being pressured to do things and to do them right. everything is a chore and a struggle.
its a great struggle to do things that neurotypical people can do easily everyday.
in this girls defence at around 5:39 people that are neuro divergent (adhd specifically) have problems tellinmg if they are hungry or thirsty wich causes us to get dehydrated easily and when we get water we gulp it very fast because we arent able to realize if we are thirst or not

To address the “neurodivergent people gravitate towards each other” statement- while i don’t believe if your friend has a disorder you automatically have it as well, or that neurodivergent people are magically drawn to each other or some bs, i do find (as a person with autism who has been recognized by medical professionals) i get along better with other people on the spectrum.
Same with adhd
This is a stab at me and others ,these ignorant people don’t understand the struggle of these disorders. I grew up feeling weird and being called “picky” do to my restricted diet, due to sensory issues. And I deal with an anxiety disorder and yet it’s treated as shy quirky crap. So what I’m saying is, people on tiktok wake up, these things we struggle with aren’t quirky.
Ikr, it's called "disorder" for a reason.
i fully agree with your points- but that doesnt mean that someone else cant be more okay and accepting with their disorder than others- some got diagnosed early on and got help from the start so they dont see it as much of a negativity- its a part of their life- sure it sucks but that doesnt mean people cant be happy anymore and have to always be serious- but sure i get it- tiktok is known to make everything a aesthetic- and i agree some of this is way over the over the top- and for you it mustn't be easy to have a disorder- and thats valid- please dont take this as critisism as i just wanna voice my opinion

ok so, not being rude or anything, just trying to educate some people. The worst thing that can happen during a doctor visit is being told that they cant see anything wrong with you, so it feels like you're just imagining these symptoms, so for the girl who got excited after being told she has adhd, it was most likely a sort of celebration as to knowing what's wrong with you. This is coming from someone who has been diagnosed with adhd and it took doctors almost 17 years to figure out that I have severe anxiety and it caused a lot of distress through my life and when i was told i had anxiety it almost felt like a massive weight off of my shoulders as i could finally get everything to help me with my anxiety.

I remember watching a person who was actually diagnosed with tics and people accused them of faking it and that person had to bring out actual papers of their diagnosis.
Pls don’t accuse ppl of faking mental illnesses until you have actual proof

Yes. A lot of these people probably actually are neurodivergent,
for example the diagnosing friends / family thing
a lot of neurodivergents do this, and especially diagnosing family, when autism is genetic, is more than valid
I'm going to be honest this video felt a little off to me. I wonder if the creator even checked half of these were faked or just chose the /cringy/ ones.
Some of these like the person showing how their alters react to touch didnt seem fake?

If it makes you uncomfortable then don't watch the video. You do realize he found these videos on a subreddit and that he's not the one running the subreddit. And even tho all of them seemed fake. I mean there's literally a woman who faked Tourette so well that she had 1 million of people following her on tiktok until people realize she was faking it and doing it for attention, you're really naive if you think people who are on tiktok and claim to have a mental illness actually have it.

This is one of the greatest work from a bacon I have ever seen especially on 17:24. I am currently crying so hard right now. This is seriously the most beautiful, well put together story ever. I can’t believe how magical it was 1:12. That part truly made me shed a tear. And especially at 6:34 that part was just so truly heart touching words can not describe the series of emotions I felt. I absolutely loved the climax it had insanely excellent detail. Oh and we can’t forget the conclusion. The conclusion was the greatest and saddest conclusion I have ever seen better than any of the books I have read. Thank you so much for creating this absolute masterpiece. This is essentially the most important masterpiece of film history. It is a tragedy that this, it can’t be called a film, but a transcendent emotional experience, will be inaccessible for most. It beautifully encapsulates the human struggle to its basics; suffering, pleasure, faith, despair. The work put in to this is incredibly inspiring. The graphics, the animation, the music, so much thought was put into it. This has remined me that you can do anything you put your mind to. Not even mentioning the memories, this makes me feel like an infant again, just laying my eyes on this beautiful masterpiece gives me all the good feelings in life. I also understand what happiness is again from this. Not even to mention the most incredible part that is 2:10. Bacon spinning has changed my life for the better. It connects with the characters within the viewers, individuals suppressed within our own subconscious. It stays vibrant, fresh, and revolutionizes the art of storytelling and filmmaking while making a damn of statement on what it means to be human. Entertaining, gripping, and simply exhilarating. This might be the most impactful piece of art I’ve come across in my life, and I’m definitely coming back to it in the near future to study it more deeply. this is an absolute masterpiece , I was brought to tears listening to this and seeing the bacon go whirly swirly in a circle countless times. it absolutely moved my soul , and I don't think I can ever be the same. this bacon has changed my entire mental state , I am now at peace with who I am and what I will be doing later in my life. So much great graphic design, so much suspense, so much greatness in this one video. i have forgiven all my enemies and now I am a man of a pacifist life. I will move on , gotta move on , as the song says. the bacon is so inspirational , it shares it vast wisdom with all of us , and we are all so lucky that it would bestow it's great words with us. we are all children on bacon. hail bacon. hail bacon. The spinning bacon, rotating in one direction with this music... This made me tear up. How could such a bacon do such a thing? I'm struck by awe by this masterpiece. Especially when the bacon spins, showing its lightly salt covered tan skin. I can hear the crunch just from here, and so as the beautiful sound of the bacon scraping the dark, smooth velvet floor. The flavor, music and everything can be heard, tasted, seen and felt from a screen. You can really hear the breaths between the music artist, empathizing her love for this rotating bacon. Truly what I call modern art. This was the most legendary performance by any bacon I have ever watched. The acting was top tier and very life changing. This is one of the greatest work from a piece of bacon I have ever seen especially on 57:42. I am crying. This has made me go through an emotional rollercoaster. I cried, beat off, and also watched a movie while watching this premiere. This has made me go through so much. I passed depression because of this. It really inspired me to become an outstanding young man. Thank you.
I'm just impressed with how fast you typed this and the details
Yes it made me cry as well
@@johny_toes_2 it's copy and pasted

ok 👌
2:19 idk if it's just me but, knowing what I have is actually makes me feel happy, not because I have it, but because I know why I have problems in certain things or do certain things
This ticks me off beyond belief. I have medically diagnosed autism and to see people claim they have a mental disease for, in essence, views , is incredibly irritating. Even worse is how these mental diseases can be romanticized. It is not a "happy" thing to have autism (or any other mental disorder) at all .People who are close to someone with a mental disease can tell you how it is not a "happy" thing. It is not a fun experience and it should definitely not be almost "bragged about" as some sort of "social status" (all this is my opinion).
Yeah, there are the negatives, sensory issues fuck me up and the fact that society is built for neurotypicals doesnt make that any better - but there are a lot of neurodivergent people who actually like being neurodivergent in a way
I forgot to say: Of course, if anyone doesnt, which is more than understandable, that is totally okay
Wait. Can I make a TikTok expressing my autism, as it has been properly diagnosed at age 2 that I have it? Would that make it another "faking" disorders TikTok, or is that then actually real?
@@bloxstarluke well obviously its real
@@sjvduwbdubf I love your comments. They make me very happy, I liked reading this comment section and finding all your random comments telling the truth.
As someone with ADHD, these kind of people INFURIATE me. They have no idea how hard it can be for us to do simple tasks and think its just the coolest thing in the world… if they want ADHD so badly, they can take mine…
As a autistic child and having suspicion of ADHD and more disorders such as GAD, I really hate those TikToks. I really suffer from my autism and GAD, to a point i have to vomit everything in my stomach to get a relief from the anxiety. It's not something cool to have disorders. That's why ppl with those kinds of disorders get advantages.
I was diagnosed with adhd since childhood but only understood it truly through my peers.
I was also diagnosed with autism at 18 but didn’t understand you don’t have to be a vegetable to be incredibly disabled.
Screening/Accurate self-assessments are great to know if you should talk to your doctor about things like autism, but NEVER take it as a diagnosis. omg

HELP ENGWEEN DID NOT JUST USE TIMMY BURCH (THE DISABLED KID) FROM SOUTH PARK FOR A TRAMPOLINE TIKTOK
I have autism and adhd, I’ve known this since I got diagnosed in kindergarten, and I genuinely hate people who think the things I have make them “quirky” or “not like the other girls” (I’m a boy), it annoys me so much
as someone with both adhd and autism I honestly wonder how the hell these people live normal lives without the guilt of knowing that they're doing something wrong
As someone with mild autism, anyone who thinks ASD is a blessing is completely wrong. I feel insulted whenever people spread misinformation about this. Treat us like we’re normal and we’ll be fine.
No. Dont treat us like neurotypicals. Thats the biggest mistake.
Treat us human. Try to learn things about different disabilities, try to support us in conversation, ...
By treating us like neurotypicals youre just gonna make it worse.
Yeah, autism has a lot of negatives, but the biggest one, the social one, is just a downside because of the fact that society is built for neurotypicals.
I wish these people would magically develop all these issues they fake.
FR- IT PISSES ME OFF PAST I THOUGHT PREVIOUSLY POSSIBLE
@@Cartia6269 Fr then they wouldn’t make fun of them
Personaly, after I was diagnosed I turned to humor to try and feel better. In elementary school, I knew nobody else with adhd, and I was raised to believe I was different because I was born a bit differently. Middle school was hard for me, people expected me to mature and grow up, and I didn't take to it - I was always set out and in trouble for being loud, disruptive, forgetting and being forced to explain why I hadn't been taking my medicine. When I got to high school, I met my best friend. His name is corrin, and he has Autism. His autism effects his attention span, sensory input to lights, noises, textures in fabric food and other things - as well as his ability to do certain things and understand social ques. Struggling with adhd, and hearing (and seeing) how corrin has to live with his Autism just makes, me wonder why people want this for themselves. It's not fun, it's exhausting, mentally and physically. People are weird and wrong in the head.
It's annoying
these people seriously make me lose hope in humanity. As someone who was actually diagnosed BY A DOCTOR, i can say i have multiple disorders (ADHD,autism,anxiety problems..etc) and i cannot believe people are acting like its such a normal thing and that they're actually proud of having these disorders like wtf
no because as someone whos been diagnosed professionally with adhd, autism, and dcd the “finding out through tiktok” is kinda real. i started looking into the possibility of neurodivergency pre diagnosis after seeing some people sharing their experiences online.
also the “yes i knew it” is insanely real because having confirmation that you’ve successfully figured out why you’ve felt different to your peers for your whole life is super exciting and relieving
Yes i first wondered if i was autistic when one of my autistic friends said i might have it. And then i saw some tiktoks abt it and started to do more research (out of tiktok) and there is a very high chance i have it. Almost everyone around me think i have it exept my parents. I havent gotten a proper diagnosis so i dont wanna claim i have it tho
As someone who has autism and adhd, i am offended by people who fake it for clout
my old friend diagnosed herself with autism, tourettes, adhd, and anxiety.
she believes she has all of these because of online quizzes.
she then goes on to diagnose her dad, and brother with autism, her mom with multiple mental disorders, and saying her 12 year old sister is lesbian. she would even diagnose her friends (including me) with autism because she would say that autistic people group together.
honestly once she graduates highschool, and goes to collage or whatever, I hope she realizes that it was so wrong of her to act how she did.
its truly so so embarrassing, she has been my friend since i started school (and now we're juniors in highschool, so pretty long time) and she really is a good person but what she was doing disturbed me so much, hope shes fine now though :/
5:52 drinking water in the night while playing minecraft is the best
2:57
i have adhd and stimming can be really anything and you do it without really knowing your doing it so, yes her jumping could be stimming if she really is neurodivergent
My boyfriend of 3 years has Tourette’s we are graduating this year together and he has so many panic attacks about him having a tic attack souring the ceromony, sometimes it gets so bad I have to sneak over to his house to calm him down, he will stress himself out so much he throws up and gets sick, I have to be there to help him clean it up and to bandage him up because he’ll hurt himself on accident from ticking. This man has been through hell and back.
I’d not know why anyone would want this.
Bro I HATE when people have the guts, the nerve, the brain cells to actually fake an eating disorder. It is so annoying like imagine just being a normal human with Tourette’s let’s say, and some dumb tiktoker makes content out of your eating disorder and everything you went through.
Hi Engween! I look forward to watching your videos whenever I have free time! Thank you for what you do!
Omg
4:49 me literally rubbing my feet together as you say this, and just thinking how stupid that person in the TikTok sounds 😂
Omg you must havr atism 1!1!1!1!!!111!!!

Drinking water in a way does determine something
It determines the way you drink the water
Fact Check on the Jumping Stim: Yes, it is a stim for some people with Autism/Autism Spectrum Disorder/ADHD. But at a trampoline park it is a pretty logical thing to do.
I love watching people fake ADHD… it’s not “quirky” or “cool” it’s not fun. I wish people like these just touch grass.
As someone with a piece of paper that says I have ADHD from professionals.
2:02 this-
Made me feel *p a i n*
To the one about them asking to be tested for ADHD: I can understand being excited to find out something about yourself, but that's a bit much.. for example: I've just recently been diagnosed with OCD and I'm glad because it makes things easier to treat and live with but I wouldn't go as far as they did...❤️❤️ Seeing these people breaks my heart because it mocks people who actually go through this stuff...
sometimes you can get a sense of relief from a diagnosis, but that doesn't mean you're happy that you have it
as someone who has adhd and a very close friend with autism, god damn this shit is disrespectful! both he and i struggle and ppl rlly out here making it an aesthetic? in my autism era??? wtf..
As someone with (currently professionally undiagnosed, but my therapist said I have severe signs of) ADHD,
IT 👏 IS 👏 N O T 👏 FUN!
I have to deal with my parents yelling at me for zoning out during homework, getting bad results from my substitute teachers, zoning out and completely shutting off during sport and/or playing with my younger sister, ADHD attacks (which are 100% NOT fun), and people telling me I’m LUCKY.
LUCKY??? I CANNOT NAME ONE REASON I AM LUCKY.
1:05 I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 6. And people bully me for it a lot of the time, and we have people FAKING IT? like imagine getting bullied since age six for having a behaviour problem you can’t control and seeing someone use it for clout on tiktok
2:10 idk why you would be happy over having severe adhd
Personally the worst trend to me is the autism one especially since I have a nephew that was MEDICALLY diagnosed with autism at 2 it’s disgusting that they’re making it a “quirky” and “cute” trend THIS IS ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE IT IS NOT QUIRKY IT IS NOT CUTE IT IS A HORRIBLE DISORDER THAT MESSES WITH PEOPLES LIVES EVERYDAY I CANT BELIEVE THESE PEOPLE
Edit:he’s seven and I feel so bad that he’s gonna grow up in a world like this…
Poor kid! Tell him I wish him luck. (Wait that sounds creepy.. Uh..you know what I meant)
i have autism, the only downside of it is that people make fun of you
it definitely can be very affirming to get diagnosed with something. some people spend years trying to find out what's "wrong" with them and when your symptoms finally get a name it can be awesome. i've been suspecting that i'm autistic for at least 8 years and i've finally been tested and getting the results next week and if my suspections are confirmed i'm gonna be so happy because i've been struggling all my life with so many things and a diagnosis would clear it all up
Me and my brother are autistic and we used to literally have foot battles, which to us meant that we would be on either side of a couch and literally push each others legs with our feet until either one of us screamed "Fine! You win!" Ahh yes, childhood. I miss it.
As someone with ADHD I feel offended seeing people use a real disorder for tik tok clout
2:10 to be fair i can totally understand why someone would be happy to be diagnosed with ADHD. I mean, the diagnosis doesn't give them any new problems - they were already having problems with no explanation so it's understandable they'd be happy for an explanation, plus they can now get medication to stop those problems! So yeah these fakers are awful but I can understand that at least.
I have autism and ADHD and this just pains me since having a disorder or disability that you can not control is not all fun and games like I get bullied for my disorders. But then there's people that are faking disorders it makes me annoyed.And also with the stimming some people do tend to jump whilst stimming but everyone stims differently so yeah.
Idk if its different in other parts of the world but getting tested for autism is a very long process and isn't just a quick trip or a scan it took a couple of months for me to finish getting tested even though I'm low on the autism spectrum compared to other people I know
A lot of professionals even recommend self-diagnosis due to financial issues or the fact its simply unavailable, especially for adults, where there isnt really any benefit to getting a professional diagnosis.
And now dont get me wrong, self-diagnosis is not simply looking at tiktoks, its actually doing research, its not taking random tests either, as they just tell you where you are on the spectrum, but cant reliably tell you if you are autistic or not - you actually have to put effort into it.
@@sjvduwbdubf sources? a quick google search looking at credible medical websites say they highly don't recommend it due to the dangers, i want to know what website you looked at to come to the conclusion doctors support it. (edit: what i googled was "do doctors recommend self diagnosing mental health issues")
@@mechanicalplague well, is it mental health issues or autism?
doctors recommend self-diagnosis to lots of people, after all, why would you get diagnosed if there arent really any benefits, when in some countries you have to pay and squeeze into an extremely long queue?
why would you pay and wait for a piece of paper telling you youre autistic?
there arent any benefits to a diagnosis other than confirmation here.
@@sjvduwbdubf okay but who would benefit from it other then having a label you can't back up? I see it like self diagnosing pneumonia when it's just bronchitis and wanting steroids when you just need antibiotics, it's pointless. But go off thinking self diagnosis is liked by doctors while I have multiple doctors saying to not do it, researching and going to the doctor with it and then seeing what they say is what they mean, lol.
@@mechanicalplague well a diagnosis is nothing but a label too, except a professional, who learned a lot about the topic, backs it up. if you learn a lot about the topic its safe to say that in the end its the same thing.
I’m autistic and let me just say, these things people use to diagnose themselves with is normal for everyone. Like bro wtf 💀💀
Autistic teenager here, i just wanna go off because i got mad as hell. The woman who was happy she had ADHD (shes prolly faking it because who would be happy to have a life altering incurable mental problem) made me so mad. Its disrespectful towards people who are actually autistic or have ADHD, or any other disorder because to the person faking it its a quirky trend but to the person who actually has it its very serious. Just stop faking disorders we all know its fake as hell and cherry on top, some people fake these disorders to spread misinformaion about them and that scares me
My partner has diagnosed DID and its one of the most difficult thing to deal with in our lives right now. The fact that people just pretend to have it as some sort of trend or game, its just disgusting.
I hope things get better! I can’t speak for anyone with DID, but I understand that those TikTok’s are harmful. I hope things go ok with you both :)
@@KandiHeartCreations thank you, we broke up because it was too much to deal with but we still talk and i make sure they're okay :)
1:55 was so assaulting because i have family members with ADHD and know mostly everything about it from learning what it means for someone to be born with it
Hi, just wanted to come on here and inform everyone a bit more!
The first Tiktok that got shown was about DID and the amount of alters a person has. There is no limit on how many alters you can have, DID is a very complex trauma disorder which can cause someone to have over 200 hundred alters, and it's not even as rare as you might think for someone to share a body with more than 10-20 people when they have DID.
Now, the next few are more about self-diagnosing. Of course, diagnosing yourself is not *the* best way to go about it, although studies show that about 80-90% of people who self-diagnose with either autism or ADHD, actually do have it.
Next, you ask for a fact check on if jumping up and down is stimming. Well, the answer is yes. Jumping up and down *is*, indeed, a form of stimming! In fact, it's a very common stim to have. Reminder that stimming is not something that is 'not simple' or 'weird'. Everyone stims, except people with disorders stim more often/the stims are more intense. Examples of stimming are: Clicking pens, repeated tutting, bouncing your leg, shaking your hands, walking or turning in circles, etc.
Of course, there are people out there who actually fake disorders, though r/fakedisordercringe is one of the worst sources to get information from, as it takes any symptom that is uncommon or something they do not believe is a symptom, or even just a person living with a disorder showing genuine happiness, as a "clear sign" that said person is faking their disorder.
Now about the caption. It puts Gen Z in a very bad light. There are many adults who do the exact same thing but just don't go as viral as Gen Z'ers do. Why, I cannot say. But Gen Z is not the only one doing this. In fact, Gen Z is one of the most well-informed, inclusive, and respectful generation.
Don't forget that Boomers are actively choosing to opress minorities, Millenials are the ones responsible for raising Gen Z so y'all have no reason to complain about us, really. Additionally, Millenials are starting to take after Boomers.
Gen Z is f-ed up because of earlier generations.
Remember, this is not a hate comment, just trying to inform people on this!
I will list my sources below this comment, feel free to add anything I missed!
i actually have been diagnosed with autism like i dont even fucking know what stimming is. why are people tryna make it a quirky trend. it’s literally worse than not having it.
Stimming is just repetitive motions or senses people use to self regulate emotions
Such as re playing a certain song over and over or leg shaking/ hand flapping (these are just a few examples of course)
These just help with decompression
It’s also in the dsm5 too
(Doesn’t mean that every person who often stims is autistic of course just tends to be a more frequent trait in those with autism )
:3
If you’re still confused I highly recommend doing some research into the topic and teaching yourself something new:)
I was actually upset when I saw the ‘Autistic Era’. Autism isnt like a phase. Its a thing you have until you’re dead, and perhaps if there is an afterlife- you’ll still have it. And trust me you dont want to have Autism if you actually wanna be the one to make 50 billion friends.
I think that it can be relieving to find out you have ADHD because so many people that spend their childhood undiagnosed spend a lot of their time wondering what is wrong with them, and having an actual medical diagnosis for it and knowing there's treatment options to make things easier can be really relieving or joyous.
"Omg guys eating pizza is a sign you have ADHD, so quirky 🥺🥺🥺" just no
FR 💀
"OmG gUyS, dRaWiNg Is A sIgN yOu HaVe ADHD!! EvEr So QuIrKyYyYyYy!!! 🤩✨"
"OMg gUys BrEatHInG iS a SiGn yOU HavE ADHD, sO qUirKY 😍🤩❤️💅🏻✨✨"
I have autism and I confirm that jumping up and down can be a form of stimming. To put it simply, stimming is a repetitive action that helps self regulate yourself when you feel overwhelmed with stress or when you're getting really excited.
It’s really sad seeing how people r wanting to get mental disorders without even caring about how much it may actually affects someone who actually has it
People fr think faking this for attention is funny and quirky is CRAZY 🙏🙏😭😭
3:39 Jumping up and down can actually be stimming, lol. But this isn't exclusive to neurodivergent people since neurotypical kids do the same. It's just that most people outgrow this behaviour, but adults who are neurodivergent may use it to self-regulate (especially people with autism). It can also be used during therapy for people with sensory needs. I know this because I learned about it in university. It's a pretty common sensory integration technique (a type of therapy) used to help with self-regulation. No hate, just thought I'd provide you with some info :)
An article I found about it is called "Sensory integration techniques applied to children with learning disabilities: An outcome study"
I wanted to emphasize that there is no shame in neurodivergent people using jumping as a way to self-regulate, as I'm aware that saying that neurotypical kids "outgrow" using jumping as a stim seems to imply that neurodivergent adults who jump as a stim aren't mature. That isn't what I meant, I just couldn't find a better way to describe it...
This is just, face palm able.
9:41 embrace autism is actually really helpful to see if you should get a diagnosis, but i would NOT say that it IS a diagnosis. sure, it might be a step in the direction of "hey, i think i have autistic traits. could this just be me being weird or do i need to seek help?" But it is *NOT* a diagnosis to tell you if you have autism.
I brought it up in a therapy session with my therapist (he isnt a psychiatrist so he cant diagnose me personally or anything) and we talked about it on and off for months. A couple weeks ago he showed me embrace autism and we took some tests. He pushed me to get an actual assesment done by a doctor, and i did. Just because I got a high score on a--pretty much--buzzfeed type quiz doesnt mean im going to go around and say im autistic. Because who knows if i am or until i get the results back. Thats for the doctor to decide, not me or some webisite.
Though, let me add- no shade to Embrace Autism, they're the ones that made me want to get a diagnosis. I could just be weird and relate to people with autism
edit: the fact that they said theyre "in their autism era" made me throw up in my mouth a little bit .
I really don’t think all videos of this go in the category „assholes faking disorders and being disrespectful“
but seriously what mentally well person would feel the need to fake mental illness
