    As an autistic person who's had OCD, this sounds like much of that. For me personally, it took a few powerful psychedelic trips to really help get my brain out of the constant negativity feed back loop and reanalyze sensory "overload" as a sort of sensory "joy" while accepting life isn't going to be some puzzle I'm going to perfectly put the pieces together for.

    I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to have autism but be able to make eye contact most of the time. Does anyone have any information about that? I feel like if all autistic people couldn't make eye contact, it would be impossible to miss spotting so many autistic people till adulthood. Can anyone offer some clarity on that?

    • @Person-ef4xj
      @Person-ef4xj Рік тому

      I found even as a child that it was sometimes hard to break eye contact sometimes for me as I would tend to stare at people's eyes and study their features closely but was diagnosed with autism at around 6 or 7. So I feel like intense staring can be an overlooked sign of autism in childhood.

  • @Tenshihan-Quinn
    @Tenshihan-Quinn Рік тому

    It's an adaption mechanic in simians, more prevalent in those who have an abundance of mirror-cells in their neurology. The reason for it, is in the quick pattern-recognition used by autistic people when they witness/analyze those dominant personas who are already established (elder peers/adults/role-models, etc) and the mob-mentality/hive-mind behaviour of neuro-typicals to 'fit-in' or be shunned. On the most basic primitive level, to fit-in equates food, shelter and general survival. This is where mirroring/masking comes in. Monkey see = monkey do. If we (Autistic-people) blend in via behavioural template mimicry - then we are establishing a chain of similar-relationships with others whose behavioural-patterns for them, is natural.

    Here's the thing about those questions - Those very questions and criteras are STILL used to diagnose autism. If you can do them, it's a tick in the no box. Look at ADOS which is still widely used, particularly in the NHS. So there are a lot of autistic people out there not getting diagnosed for this reason.

    @esconis5304 2 роки тому

    Of course autism can't be cured. Autism isn't even really a thing, just a different brain formation. There's no "root" cause, hence no "cure". It's kinda like some people are black, the "cure" could be considered to make them white. You can't do that, just like you can't change someone's brain. It's just who we are, and changing that would change us. To us our actions are natural, but everyone else view them as weird and abnormal, because our brains are different. It's like we're a different species. At least this is what I think.
