Thanks for catching that, @paradoxum4415! I love adding subtle details like that to bring out the character and reveal more about the condition. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
@@PixiGags I love it especially due to the casual “hey, this happens regularly”, positive light you tend to paint these quirks and problems as. It happens in tandem to the actual problem, disorder, or mental health topic you show each episode. So really, thank you for making this channel and spreading awareness about different conditions, disorders, and mental health in general. As someone who studied psychology for a time, it really makes my heart happy seeing these animations :)
The Prince Charming laughs at the Princess for having a Tic, until the Tic got him and finally redeem himself to accept her. That man got a compelling redemption arc in 10 seconds.
Haha, exactly! If people could switch from apathy to empathy that fast, it would be amazing! I'm glad you noticed the prince's quick redemption. Thanks so much for your comment!
Thanks for your insight, @AndyBoyBrawler! The big eyes really do convey that mix of emotions, and it’s important to show how Bipo and Mania navigate their bipolar disorder. The ups and downs are a big part of their journey. I appreciate your thoughtful comment!
Thanks for your comment, @Daryl-2009! I’m really glad you noticed that! It’s important to show that even when challenges arise, there can still be moments of joy and connection.
As an CPTSDer, I know the feeling. Unpleasant emotions can come in like a wrecking ball when one least expects it, from even things so seemingly simple as certain phrases. And being a multiple makes it all the more a rollercoaster, as we can snap from a moment of quietly crying in the fetal position to calmly eating a bowl of pudding in a matter of seconds, as if nothing happened at all. Ha ha. In that way we can sort of relate: our emotions can turn on a dime at times due to different headmates being present at a given moment.
Thanks for your comment, @kitdoesstuff_official! The magic spell is all about empathy, not revenge. It’s essential for the prince to understand and appreciate the beauty of Tourette syndrome through shared experiences. Thanks for your support!
I much prefer the Tics & Stims video because the prince having learned their lesson involved deliberately giving him a permanent brain disability for the crime of being rude, sorta feels like it misses the mark tbh.
@@PixiGags By forcing him to live with that syndrome himself? If someone had crippling depression, would it be a good idea and a healthy story for people who don't get it to suddenly have it forced upon them to learn a lesson as well? This seems like a problematic way to teach empathy to someone and it's honestly violating to him. Of course there's nothing wrong with having one of these conditions, speaking as someone who lives with OCD myself, but I wouldn't want others to understand myself better by forcing them to live with my mental challenges too.
The way Ossie come to help Syd is just wholesome and reminded me how my first friend in primary accepted me even though I am autistic while others didn't and would just bully me in many intense way
I met my best friend about that time as well. He wasn't my first friend but the rest never lasted very long. I did suffer the usual bullying attempts, though not more than any other kid seems to suffer on average as far as I can tell, but as my reaction to being attacked, whether verbally or physically, has always been to retaliate in kind those who tried gave up and went after easier targets.
@@DefaultFlame Sadly, I don't think I suffered what we can consider as average since It's include stuff such as being told to gone yourself and threat to make you be gone everyday by different people but I'm happy for you if that how you meeted a good friend and you didn't have to suffer as much as I did
@@Echo-the-Umbreon Yeah, I didn't go to school with psychopaths. The F are their parents doing to make them that screwed up in the head? Being generally mean spirited, calling you names over and over, mockery, and starting fights with you was the extent I experienced. Could be because I went to smaller schools or that I'm not from the US and didn't go through the hellscape that is the US school system.
@@DefaultFlame I'm not from USA I'm from Quebec as for their parents I think It's because they letted their kids play shooter game and others violent games some study show that playing violent games at a young age can make some people agressive and change their personnality
@@Echo-the-Umbreon Everyone I've known has played violent video games as kids and I can't say that any of them seem to have come off worse for it. My bet is on neglectful or abusive parents. They get shit on at home and in turn shit on people at school.
Man, I'd really wish we could have some good children literature or modern fairy tales about disorders. Unfortunately, many writers don't even do a decent research and write basically a garbage
I completely understand, @crimsonmoon8649! There’s a real need for more thoughtful and well-researched literature that accurately represents various disorders. I plan to promote neurodiversity stories that encourage understanding and empathy, not just through animation but also in book form. Thanks for your support!
@@skywolfbat well, I plan to write a book with autistic character (like myself) and I hope I'll manage to do it, but I can't really say if i'm good or bad
Man, I feel so comforted by these animations. I'm autistic, but I always masked really hard when I was younger, so I only got diagnosed recently. These videos make me feel more confident in being myself.
I’m really glad to hear that, @waste_of_paint! It means so much to know that these animations bring you comfort and help you feel more confident in being yourself. It’s important to embrace who you are. Thank you for sharing your story with me! ❤️
I love the over-the-top disturbingly wide eyes and bouncing, then the sheer distress in the bipolar duo. Shows how viscerally they experience their emotions. Then the constant flipping on and off of the light switch from OCD. It's the little details that show your care and it's awesome every time.
So many cats!! I love this video, it might be my new favorite. I think it's super wholesome how Ossie can teach Bipo and Mania to have compassion just by telling a story, without getting getting angry at them or anything. In a way she's leading by example, understanding that Bipo and Mania weren't trying to hurt Syd's feelings, they just didn't realize they were.
The moral of the story is to not ridicule someone because of their deficit, it's to look past all that to see what kind of person they truly are. The Pixi fairies (pun maybe intended) showed the Prince that he wouldn't like it if someone were to laugh at something one obviously can't help. So he decided to change his actions for the better. I liked the story here, it reminded me of the Fractured Fairy Tales from Rocky and Bullwrinkle, the one where the maiden was ugly, but when she got on the mule, she would become beautiful looking, until the end where the handsome prince reveals that he looks that way because he is riding the horse. Also the expressions that you gave on Bipo and Mania after they heard the story got a laugh out of me. At least everybody's happy at the end.
everything about this is delightful -> the highly-expressive bipolar cats -> the dyslexic cat and the way they mix up their words (seriously the way it's represented here is peak) -> ocd cat being the mom friend we all need in our lives ♡ -> tics! 'nuff said -> bpd cats' sopping wet cat faces - precious -> the tiny kits reading ^^ -> ocd cat switching the lights before leaving the room T^T anyway, i think this is the first time i watched a series that depicted neurodiversity with so much care, and i wanna say thank you for that- these cats have stolen my heart
Aww the OCD cat (idk her name) helping them and at the end turning on and off the light, I really like all your videos has a neurodervigent myself, keep it up they are amazing and I hope I see OCD cat more bcs thats what I have but I like them all in general, I really like cats! 💞
For a hot second there I was wondering why the lighting was rapidly changing, then realised “oh yes. OCD. Left the space, which is presumably a room, and rooms tend to have electric lights these days, which have switches. Therefore, this most likely means that OCD is flipping the light switch a few times before exiting the room, as they are wont to do. One of our headmates, whom I reckon may have OCPD, tends to do things a bit like that sometimes, such as stepping on an equal number of tiles of a certain colour on checkerboard patterned tile floors. Or folding and placing upon holders towels, wiping up puddles on countertops, and arranging everything not yet ordered on the countertop in a neat and logical fashion in loos, both our own and others we come across. This leads to the amusing situation of us often leaving spaces cleaner than they were when we arrived.
I love all the details you do, the expressions make it easy to tell how they feel, and you dont wven need diologue to tell the emotions. Honestly, it would be really cool seeing one including epilepsy if you haven't already.
Thanks so much, @pieceofworkworkofpiece2261! I’m thrilled to hear you love the animations and find them relatable! A cat with anxiety is definitely on my list for a future episodes. I appreciate your support! 😺💖
I swear, the animation just keeps getting better and smoother withe every new part. i also found that the ending part with the OCD Cat constantly turning the lights on and off quite amusing. Congrats Pixi-Gags. This one is now among my list of favorite Neurodiverse Friends Animation videos.
I love how quick and exaggerated the animation is now. Reminds me of Oggy and the Cockroaches season 5. Also the prince's horse reminds me of Sylvia Zbornak
Thank you for your wonderful comment, @nyrvajeudy394! I’m thrilled to hear you’re enjoying the quick and exaggerated animation style! It really developed in the last few episodes as I started paying closer attention to the musical beats-it’s been a lot of fun to experiment! As for the prince's horse resembling Sylvia Zbornak, that wasn’t intentional, but it totally makes sense since I’ve watched Wonder Over Yonder quite a bit! Thanks for your support!
Honestly if I was the princess, I would’ve been like “Oh so now that you have the same problem as me, you wanna be my husband! Well guess what?! How about your first thought be learning to cope with it first, then we can talk!” 😤 Also, big kitty mommy kitty! 🥹
Awwww!!! You put a fairytale in too?? I'm crying happy tears right now. I love how the cats always find a way (with a little help) to connect in the end. I've seen that with children many times. They can act very mean when they don't really understand each other, but the minute they get it, they will become their neurodiverse new friend's greatest protector. It's beautiful. And usually they really only do need a little explaining, stories are great for that.
Hi Nienke, it’s so nice to see you! I’m glad you like the fairytale idea! I wanted to explore what it would be like to incorporate something a bit more classic into this universe. You’re absolutely right about younger kids-they often act defensively when their space or belongings feel threatened, especially when they haven’t fully developed empathy yet. It’s a challenge when parents sometimes misunderstand that! Thank you for your beautiful and relatable comment! 💖
The dyslexic cat repeating the start of the book is something I’ve never seen people talk abt as someone with dyslexia, hate having to read something out for the class knowing I’m gonna be confusing every word the whole time 😢
I much prefer the Tics & Stims video because the prince having learned their lesson involved deliberately giving him a permanent brain disability for the crime of being rude, sorta feels like it misses the mark tbh.
Thank you so much for your comment, @Archive224! People sometimes do mix up empathy and compassion, but I really believe compassion grows out of empathy-understanding someone’s experience through a shared feeling. Without really “walking in someone else’s shoes,” it’s hard to reach that deeper understanding. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts! 💖
I love A) how Aspie and Pixi are the fairy god parents and B) how they *didn't* change the princess with the tics, but taught the "normal" prince what the princess was going through 💖💖💖 Too many times the world tries to force us to fit in, when empathy and sympathy would be both kinder and make the world a better place 🌎
I've never screeched at a video upload before. That's a first. First off, Thank you so much for making this. It's amazing. And details?! Man, you weren't kidding. First, I just noticed the thumbnail's background is grey like with food cravings. Is this going to be a common theme with side episodes? 2. This is the first time Cyd read something correctly. 3. I like how the two start bouncing at his mistake and start losing it when he's worse at his second attempt. 4. Bipo opens and closes her eyes when she jumps and Mainia just keeps her eyes completely open. 5. Those jumps are a two in one reaction. If anyone remembers their debut episode, "Manic or Hyperactive?", you know they started jumping and then go nuts. This is that two in one. 6. I'd also hide if I was Syd. Poor kid just wanted to read. 7. They then just shut up when Ozzie came in. Love that look on her face when she looks at them. She looks confused then reassuring that everything is okay. 8. Mainia looks completely scared while Bipo looks fine and calm like the others. Small pupils don't feel relaxed. 9. Ozzy takes the book from Syd and it zooms in on a thought bubble. Story time 10. Hey, a flower girl, that's cool 11. I love Little Tourette's dress, it's cute. 12. I just noticed, she's shown from an angle. 13. The cats carring her are completely the same. 14. Love how Cippi's the prince in the story. 15. There's also a horse. That's another animal next to Bo. 16. She just does her tic without shaking her head. Huh, I guess she's just jumping ahead. 17. I guess her tic's completely different with her screaming. Hehe, Yeah no, her head shake is cute but this is scary with her looking scared. I'd be terrified, not laughing at that. 18. The heart cracks when Cippi starts walking away laughing. (I counted 7 peices.) 19. Love the new crying animation 20. I didn't like how Pixi and Aspy put a spell on Cippi with doing the same tic. I wish instead he saw her for who she was. 21. The horse starts laughing at him when doing it. 22. Pixi an Aspy quickly disappear when Cippi rushes back. 23. Both ride Tourette and Cippi ride back on Cippi’s horse 24. The flower girl rushes after them with the flowers flying in the air. End Story 25. Ozzie hands the book vack to syd. 26. Both girls look lije their starting to cry. 27. Mania has her veins in her eyes back. 28. Ozzie moves them over to Syd and they start reading together. 29. Never seen Ozzie so happy to switch her lamp on and off. 30. I counted 11 switches. Finally, I’m glad the runtime is longer, even if it is just around 10 seconds This episodes was so much fun to see and analyze. I loved that so much. I love how Syd pops up behind the book and his attempts at reading.
Hi Danie! Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the episode! 1_ The grey background was a design choice to give a unique look; I wanted to avoid the feel of a children’s product. I’m glad kids watch, but I aim for a series everyone can enjoy, but I’m open to new themes for future episodes! 2_ As for Syd reading, he’s definitely improving! There are still some spelling mistakes, but it’s progress. 3_ I love that you noticed how Syd's actions influenced the characters' emotional reactions, reflecting the bipolar cycle-normal, exuberance, mania, and finally, depression. 4_ I’m glad you caught the details in the character movements. I tried to add personal touches while keeping them synchronized with the music. 5_ Yes, Ozzie helps them feel understood instead of guilty, teaching empathy through reading. 6_ Syd’s is intimidated by the manic escalation, it's a new experience for him. 7_ Mental conditions create unique experiences for everyone, so I wanted to reflect that diversity in personality. 8_ The thought bubble was a simple way to signify the transition into the story within the book. 9_ The flower girl adds a touch of humor. 10_ I aimed to give the characters more dimensions, so you can expect more angles in future episodes. 11_ Yes, the cats carrying her are designed to be the same, I thought it would be fun. 12_ I’m glad you appreciated Cippi as the prince! It’s a fun twist. 13_ The horse’s laughter was a last-minute addition to keep things lighthearted and cute, and I’m happy you liked it! 14_ Tics can manifest in different ways, and I wanted to show diversity in how characters express themselves. 15_ I’m glad you caught the heart symbolism! I love symbols. 16_ It’s great to hear you liked it! 17_ Pixi and Aspy's behavior was meant to show empathy and how important it is to understand others’ experiences. 18_ The horse has a subtle reaction in the eye there. 19_ I animated everything to the musical beats, so I’m happy to hear you enjoyed the pacing! 20_ Yes, the ending was designed to show them living happily ever after! I’m glad you liked that. 21_ The flower girl rushing after them adds humor to the scene, and I’m pleased it resonated with you. 22_ I’m glad you noticed the longer runtime! I like that as well. 23_ Ozzie’s happiness when switching the lamp is a little character quirk I wanted to highlight, to connect emotions with her compulsive behavior. All the best! ✌💖
I’m autistic and I sometimes do have a weird twitch-tic which occurs often in my neck; it certainly feels like having a sneeze in terms of relief upon getting said twitching
Oh, esse começo...me identifiquei (tenho q reler umas 3 vezes pra sair a frase correta. Odeio quando me chamam para ler algo em voz alta na sala de aula)
Lol it took me a minute to figure out why the lights kept flickering 😂 Nice detail! Also did the prince literally get zapped with a Tourette’s beam lol
I love that the prince charming laughed at the princess for having tic and instead of the princess getting "fixed", the prince charming learned to be better. Seeing that makes me so happy when the media of this world can be so suck on "fixing" disable, neurodivergent, queer people.
Thanks for your comment, @bain8renn! I’m glad you enjoy my characters! Yes, the prince is Cippi, the CPTSD cat. Thanks for sharing and for your support!
Hi Xandra! I’m so sorry to hear about your stress, but I’m really glad my episode helped you find some regulation. I love your pride in being AuDHD, and I stand with you in that! Remember to take care of yourself, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you need support. ✌💖
at first you may think this is the second NDF (Neurodiverse Friends) episode without any new characters (this includes Prince Cippi in the tale, which i assume is the orange PTSD cat), but in reality, *horse.* oh and also the flower cat at the start of the tale
These are so amazing and sweet! If possible, would you be able to do an episode but about Intellectual Disability? I hope this doesn't pressure you- I love these little episodes so much
The fact that OCD had to flip the light switch before leaving ❤

Thanks so much, @pieceofworkworkofpiece2261! I’m thrilled to hear you love the animations and find them relatable! A cat with anxiety is definitely on my list for a future episodes. I appreciate your support! 😺💖
These videos are OUR fairytales
I swear, the animation just keeps getting better and smoother withe every new part. i also found that the ending part with the OCD Cat constantly turning the lights on and off quite amusing.
Congrats Pixi-Gags. This one is now among my list of favorite Neurodiverse Friends Animation videos.
I love how quick and exaggerated the animation is now. Reminds me of Oggy and the Cockroaches season 5.
Also the prince's horse reminds me of Sylvia Zbornak
Thank you for your wonderful comment, @nyrvajeudy394! I’m thrilled to hear you’re enjoying the quick and exaggerated animation style! It really developed in the last few episodes as I started paying closer attention to the musical beats-it’s been a lot of fun to experiment! As for the prince's horse resembling Sylvia Zbornak, that wasn’t intentional, but it totally makes sense since I’ve watched Wonder Over Yonder quite a bit! Thanks for your support!
i love the animation but can we appreciate the jazz in the background too??? absolutely jamming
0:08 where they jump up and down happy is funny and cute
Well, this is just plain old adorable.
the way i raptor screeched and jumped around when i got this notification omgerd....
I find funny how they jump at 0:09
Theyre so silly
Honestly if I was the princess, I would’ve been like “Oh so now that you have the same problem as me, you wanna be my husband! Well guess what?! How about your first thought be learning to cope with it first, then we can talk!” 😤
Also, big kitty mommy kitty! 🥹
I guess she was more sad than offended
THE EXPRESSIONS THEY MAKE AFTER HEARING THE STORY FHFBFFB
I hate it when my horse laughs at me for my ticks
I loveeee all the details in this! Fantastic work!
Thank you so much Ellory! I am so happy to hear that. 😺💖
Omg that is adorable
Thanks so much, @ThingamajigF74! I’m glad you think so!
@@PixiGags Your animations are amazing! ❤️
Would be cool to have some epic wings sprouting animation and other transformation type animations tutorial
Very impressive animation
Awwww!!! You put a fairytale in too?? I'm crying happy tears right now. I love how the cats always find a way (with a little help) to connect in the end. I've seen that with children many times. They can act very mean when they don't really understand each other, but the minute they get it, they will become their neurodiverse new friend's greatest protector. It's beautiful. And usually they really only do need a little explaining, stories are great for that.
Hi Nienke, it’s so nice to see you! I’m glad you like the fairytale idea! I wanted to explore what it would be like to incorporate something a bit more classic into this universe. You’re absolutely right about younger kids-they often act defensively when their space or belongings feel threatened, especially when they haven’t fully developed empathy yet. It’s a challenge when parents sometimes misunderstand that! Thank you for your beautiful and relatable comment! 💖
Beautiful film from Pixi ….. as always great character design ….. love also the colors ❤
Thank you so much, Karin! I am glad you enjoy the colors as well! 💖
Nice animation, I hope your having a nice day Pixi
NAH their faces after the story are so goofy il em XD
These videos are so real. I watched this in school when I first came out.
Thank you for sharing that, @HELLO-hz8cg! It means a lot to know that these videos resonate with you so much. I really appreciate your support! ❤
Y'all have no idea how happy I get to see a Pixi Gags post
Thank you so much for sharing that, Vera! It means a lot to me! ❤
The dyslexic cat repeating the start of the book is something I’ve never seen people talk abt as someone with dyslexia, hate having to read something out for the class knowing I’m gonna be confusing every word the whole time 😢
This is so cute! Love the cute kitties 💛✨
There's absolutely no dialogue but you were able to tell a cohesive narrative really well. Good job, man.👌
despite being quite simple, these animations always put a smile on my face
I am glad to hear that, @yag821! Thanks a lot for sharing. 💖
I much prefer the Tics & Stims video because the prince having learned their lesson involved deliberately giving him a permanent brain disability for the crime of being rude, sorta feels like it misses the mark tbh.
Yeah, that was a pretty mean way to teach a lesson; he just suddenly has that for the rest of his life now?
I really loved the horrified expressions that they did at the end, had me laughing so hard 😂
I think it’s so important to have videos like this that show the empathy is both inherent, as well as is learned. A lovely animation, as always :]
Thank you so much for your comment, @Archive224! People sometimes do mix up empathy and compassion, but I really believe compassion grows out of empathy-understanding someone’s experience through a shared feeling. Without really “walking in someone else’s shoes,” it’s hard to reach that deeper understanding. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts! 💖
0:57 Nerw reaction image thank you!
My pleasure, @Axoltolion! I am glad you like this one! 💖✌
Dude these videos are so wholesome i can’t
I'm just learning how to animate and I'm shocked about how good you can animate
I love A) how Aspie and Pixi are the fairy god parents and B) how they *didn't* change the princess with the tics, but taught the "normal" prince what the princess was going through 💖💖💖
Too many times the world tries to force us to fit in, when empathy and sympathy would be both kinder and make the world a better place 🌎
I love these episodes, it makes others feel included as well as being able to explain ❤
This was wonderful
Cute cartoon with good intentions... Love it
It's my pleasure, Syndra! Thanks a lot for your kind words. 💖
The huge boo-womp eyes XD
I love these videos so much 🌟
I love how they didn't take away Princess Tourette's tics but instead passed them on to Prince Cippi
So cute pixi, i really love your style!
Actually, having Osie go for the light-switch at the end is perfect-timing for the October spooky-season! =)
Oh, I hadn’t considered that! But it totally makes sense now. Thank you for sharing your thoughts! 🎃😺
If only people were that apologetic 😭💀 i never had anyone (outside the internet) understand my mental health stuff 💀
holy crap is that a HORSE?! I cannot fathom the idea that this world does not only contain silly cats interacting
this series has evolved, love it!!
Thanks so much, @bananaoatmeal! I am glad to hear that. 👍😺
I've never screeched at a video upload before. That's a first.
First off, Thank you so much for making this. It's amazing.
And details?! Man, you weren't kidding.
First, I just noticed the thumbnail's background is grey like with food cravings. Is this going to be a common theme with side episodes?
2. This is the first time Cyd read something correctly.
3. I like how the two start bouncing at his mistake and start losing it when he's worse at his second attempt.
4. Bipo opens and closes her eyes when she jumps and Mainia just keeps her eyes completely open.
5. Those jumps are a two in one reaction. If anyone remembers their debut episode, "Manic or Hyperactive?", you know they started jumping and then go nuts. This is that two in one.
6. I'd also hide if I was Syd. Poor kid just wanted to read.
7. They then just shut up when Ozzie came in. Love that look on her face when she looks at them. She looks confused then reassuring that everything is okay.
8. Mainia looks completely scared while Bipo looks fine and calm like the others. Small pupils don't feel relaxed.
9. Ozzy takes the book from Syd and it zooms in on a thought bubble.
Story time
10. Hey, a flower girl, that's cool
11. I love Little Tourette's dress, it's cute.
12. I just noticed, she's shown from an angle.
13. The cats carring her are completely the same.
14. Love how Cippi's the prince in the story.
15. There's also a horse. That's another animal next to Bo.
16. She just does her tic without shaking her head. Huh, I guess she's just jumping ahead.
17. I guess her tic's completely different with her screaming. Hehe, Yeah no, her head shake is cute but this is scary with her looking scared. I'd be terrified, not laughing at that.
18. The heart cracks when Cippi starts walking away laughing. (I counted 7 peices.)
19. Love the new crying animation
20. I didn't like how Pixi and Aspy put a spell on Cippi with doing the same tic. I wish instead he saw her for who she was.
21. The horse starts laughing at him when doing it.
22. Pixi an Aspy quickly disappear when Cippi rushes back.
23. Both ride Tourette and Cippi ride back on Cippi’s horse
24. The flower girl rushes after them with the flowers flying in the air.
End Story
25. Ozzie hands the book vack to syd.
26. Both girls look lije their starting to cry.
27. Mania has her veins in her eyes back.
28. Ozzie moves them over to Syd and they start reading together.
29. Never seen Ozzie so happy to switch her lamp on and off.
30. I counted 11 switches.
Finally, I’m glad the runtime is longer, even if it is just around 10 seconds
This episodes was so much fun to see and analyze. I loved that so much. I love how Syd pops up behind the book and his attempts at reading.
Hi Danie! Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the episode!
1_ The grey background was a design choice to give a unique look; I wanted to avoid the feel of a children’s product. I’m glad kids watch, but I aim for a series everyone can enjoy, but I’m open to new themes for future episodes!
2_ As for Syd reading, he’s definitely improving! There are still some spelling mistakes, but it’s progress.
3_ I love that you noticed how Syd's actions influenced the characters' emotional reactions, reflecting the bipolar cycle-normal, exuberance, mania, and finally, depression.
4_ I’m glad you caught the details in the character movements. I tried to add personal touches while keeping them synchronized with the music.
5_ Yes, Ozzie helps them feel understood instead of guilty, teaching empathy through reading.
6_ Syd’s is intimidated by the manic escalation, it's a new experience for him.
7_ Mental conditions create unique experiences for everyone, so I wanted to reflect that diversity in personality.
8_ The thought bubble was a simple way to signify the transition into the story within the book.
9_ The flower girl adds a touch of humor.
10_ I aimed to give the characters more dimensions, so you can expect more angles in future episodes.
11_ Yes, the cats carrying her are designed to be the same, I thought it would be fun.
12_ I’m glad you appreciated Cippi as the prince! It’s a fun twist.
13_ The horse’s laughter was a last-minute addition to keep things lighthearted and cute, and I’m happy you liked it!
14_ Tics can manifest in different ways, and I wanted to show diversity in how characters express themselves.
15_ I’m glad you caught the heart symbolism! I love symbols.
16_ It’s great to hear you liked it!
17_ Pixi and Aspy's behavior was meant to show empathy and how important it is to understand others’ experiences.
18_ The horse has a subtle reaction in the eye there.
19_ I animated everything to the musical beats, so I’m happy to hear you enjoyed the pacing!
20_ Yes, the ending was designed to show them living happily ever after! I’m glad you liked that.
21_ The flower girl rushing after them adds humor to the scene, and I’m pleased it resonated with you.
22_ I’m glad you noticed the longer runtime! I like that as well.
23_ Ozzie’s happiness when switching the lamp is a little character quirk I wanted to highlight, to connect emotions with her compulsive behavior.
All the best! ✌💖
I really like this videos, they are funny and informative, the animation is good too, really good work!
Thank you so much for your kind and wonderful words, @ShadowCat_9629! I'm glad you like both the content and the art style of this series. 💖
I’m autistic and I sometimes do have a weird twitch-tic which occurs often in my neck; it certainly feels like having a sneeze in terms of relief upon getting said twitching
dude i swear to god im visioning Syd's future voice actor being the voice actor for The Sun from ITFT (its eoni btw)
Oh, esse começo...me identifiquei (tenho q reler umas 3 vezes pra sair a frase correta. Odeio quando me chamam para ler algo em voz alta na sala de aula)
Isso pode ser Dislexia
@@Mango_PardMas é dislexia ksksks
Nossa, nao sabia q tinha br que assistia esse canal tbm
@@This_is_ÍsisEu sempre tô aqui quando lança vídeo e na aba de comunidade 😊
@@YakkoLan ata, não sabia👍
I LOVE THIS VIDEO 😢 it's about to make a man cry and it's Ok.
Thanks so much for sharing your feelings, @Skunkfu730! And yes, that's totally OK! 😺💖
Lol it took me a minute to figure out why the lights kept flickering 😂 Nice detail!
Also did the prince literally get zapped with a Tourette’s beam lol
I love that the prince charming laughed at the princess for having tic and instead of the princess getting "fixed", the prince charming learned to be better. Seeing that makes me so happy when the media of this world can be so suck on "fixing" disable, neurodivergent, queer people.
Someone was having fun with the Light :D! Also Really nice video!!
Thanks so much, @spacerunner357! I am glad you noticed! 😺💖
Thanks for no making them being in constant pain just from being different
It's my pleasure, @moonielivee4836! Thank you for your appreciation! ❤
quite a few characters here, and i enjoy it greatly!
also is the prince also a character weve seen? he kind of resembles one of the ptsd cats
oh it is cptsd cat, just checked
thats a neat lil detail
Thanks for your comment, @bain8renn! I’m glad you enjoy my characters! Yes, the prince is Cippi, the CPTSD cat. Thanks for sharing and for your support!
Thank you for this, I really needed it! I’m very stressed today so this helped a lot. Proud to be AuDHD. :)
Hi Xandra! I’m so sorry to hear about your stress, but I’m really glad my episode helped you find some regulation. I love your pride in being AuDHD, and I stand with you in that! Remember to take care of yourself, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you need support. ✌💖
at first you may think this is the second NDF (Neurodiverse Friends) episode without any new characters (this includes Prince Cippi in the tale, which i assume is the orange PTSD cat), but in reality, *horse.*
oh and also the flower cat at the start of the tale
These are so amazing and sweet! If possible, would you be able to do an episode but about Intellectual Disability? I hope this doesn't pressure you- I love these little episodes so much
This is really cute, ALL of these animations are cute! I wanna draw like this someday!
Thank you so much for your kindness and support, @JJVUltima! It means a lot to me, and i wish you all the best! 💖😺
I like how ADHD and autism are the fairy’s
