Autism Meltdown | Loud Vocal Protests & Crying On Vacation
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- We had some hard moments on our family Vacation to San Diego. Christian is non verbal so it’s hard for him to tell me when he’s in pain. This communication Struggle led to lots of frustration that turned into a meltdown for our autistic son. He was able to regulate himself within an hour and have an amazing rest of the day. A bad moment does not have to become a bad day.

Christian hasn’t had a meltdown in such a long time, it was hard to witness him in distress but we were able to help him calm down by giving him space and listening to his body cues. I let him be and just assured him I was there when ready. What helps your loved ones during a meltdown?
Haven't found anything to help calm my daughter melt downs yet. Love seeing him enjoying the pool.
80% of the time food.
This was lovely to see. I love the fact you had a blanket in the car! We have a teddy bear just as big as my son for long journeys. It helps him sleep in the car journeys.
As for bringing the food from the restaurant home. Story of our lives! Ahhhh I would never dare go into a restaurant with my 2 autistic sons. Also if they do not enjoy it, I don't feel its fair on them. They ask for the bare minimum of life. (Both are non verbal) so don't ask for much at all.
I love that you pick up quick on Christian and go along with the day happily and appreciate even having a walk around the hotel you are staying in.
We are truly blessed to have kids with special needs.
God Bless. May blessings come to everyones way.❤
My son is nonverbal autistic also and in this situation I think you guys had the trifecta of 1) hunger 2) anxiety and 3) having no way of knowing what was coming next. As my son got older (he's 14 now) I realized that so many of our past stresses were because of anxiety about not knowing what was coming next. As soon as we got to the place we were going- the whining/melting down was able to stop. Then he would have big bursts of HAPPIEST KID EVER. One thing that helps my son still with anxiety is wearing noise cancelling headphones. They make him feel somehow safer out on public. I also dont mind them because in a way I feel like Id rather have people stare at the headphones than to stare because of stimming. Once people see headphones (at least where we live in CA) they know he has autism and we get smiles and looks of compassion. Its nice.
Wow I love that. So happy that people show compassion 💙
hey girl here catching up i am so behind lately
Christian did have a hard time as first but he got better at the end of the day aww
Christian is still awesome!

Will my 3 year old sons public meltdowns calm down with age and time?
Does he usually have a meltdown for certain things like waiting for something or when denied something ?
@ROCKNSTIMS it's been about 4 months they've come on. It's usually with everything, not getting his way, queuing in places, or lots of crowds. If anything is slightly out of place at home. Just taking him to the bathroom for diaper changes causes meltdown
Hey, I was wondering if you ask for your child’s consent before uploading their meltdowns? I’m autistic myself and I believe informed consent is important and that they understand the magnitude of having videos uploaded. (ie thousands of people can view them and sometimes unwanted comments can emerge). Thank you ❤️
I know you want to try and make everything normal for him but he does have a disability and sometimes those triggers would be better avoided without all these trips and vacations. Just my opinion. Hope I’m not being rude, but we truly don’t know what goes on in his mind so you have to avoid sensory triggers at all cost. Good luck.
Not rude at all. I Can under your opinion but for us we know that these moments pass for our son and if you could only see how happy and full of life he was for the remainder of the trip you may understand why I would never purposely overly shelter him. Moments that are too much for him I will do all I can to help him out of. But I want him to enjoy all that he can and wants to.
@@ROCKNSTIMS no problem. Did you research about vision impairment like what my son has? Maybe ask Nerology if he ever had an mri to see if he ever had brain damage at birth?
