    This sucks. As an autistic this feels like an allistic perspective of autism that is overblown and seems to be more focused on generating pity for autistics-which we don’t want-than accurate portrayal of us.

  • @amalittlekidwhodraws9628
    @amalittlekidwhodraws9628 11 днів тому

    As an aspie, this is actually really accurate. It’s perfect and I hope it can teach more neurotypicals of what it feels like to have sensory overload.

  • @Jessica18010

    Lol great to teach people that basically everybody with autism is like this. I think this is why most people think autism is only ever super severe

    That’s not what it’s like 😂 I mean it’s close the noticing everything at once yes I don’t have constant white noise but I’m guessing that’s dramatic effect it’s a feeling too like it is sensory overload it’s the anxiety though when it’s to much I don’t think you can simulate that.

  • @erinthepigeon904
    @erinthepigeon904 2 місяці тому

    the way i could just watch this and stay chill cause its what i experience anyway (not the visual stuff necessarily but the sounds etc are very accurate) For example, one time I was in London with my mom and we were on the tower bridge and I got so overstimulated by all the people and unfamiliar sights and sounds etc. that I hyperventilated and had a meltdown like the boy in this video. It also happened to me a few other times when i was in public, so I bought these noise cancelling headphones and Ive been a LOT less stressed especially in public

    Kind of curious what non autistic version of same thing is? For contrast. Cos I want to assess if I'm making it up or not. I mean I feel like that is reality I just block out everything except bit in front to manage it. But could be in head. So contrast would be good so can compare which is closer to how seems to me.

      @Jessica18010 20 днів тому

      No, it’s a disability. Saying that it’s a “special disability” is pretty stupid and not factual. How’s is a special ability? Don’t those normally make life easier? I don’t think autism does that.

    I get this after about 10+ minutes being in a shopping centre/mall. Feel overstimulated the whole time, I have anxiety as well but i don’t get anxiety when I go shopping. I feel overstimulated, almost feeling drowsy, and then need to rest after I go home. But I don’t have autism or anything else ? Can neurotypical people get this too?
