Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I Can truly relate.

I do go to work everyday as a equipment operator person

It separated from families

I'm a 58 year old man

What should I do

My name is James Westbrook Jr from Memphis Tennessee USA 🇺🇸 and I'm diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder same as asperger and I can't found a place to get evaluated by a psychiatrist

I love that she asked you to leave the pauses

Thank you SO MUCH for posting!!! I related heavily to Miya and appreciate her testimony. I haven’t gotten a diagnosis yet, but I’ve been looking into autism and adhd for a while now, and I’ve been wondering how this would interplay with my faith. I also feel into legalism and hyper-Calvinism on my journey, and I’ve been in a healing season from all the pressure and torment I went through. Wondering if it’s not autistic burn-out from masking and striving to be a “perfect Christian.” I also gave up on all my favorite hobbies and interests and I think that contributed to the deep depression I was in. I appreciate this so much and hope to do more content like this. Thank you again!

1 Peter 2:24,Isaiah 53:5.Psalm 103.

1 Corinthicns 15:1-4 Jesus Christ is Lord and He is coming soo .God bless all my brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ.

This is gorgeous blessing me so much thank you

I can relate...I've struggled with it all my life without knowing until I raised 2 kids with it and learnt what it was... The Gift of Dyslexia ❤

We really relate to this a lot…it’s so hard to see the body in the mirror when we all are different…sometimes we hate it and want to never come back out

This was very enlightening, I dont have DID but I will try to remember this in the future for people who do

A good episode leaves viewers eager for the next one.

Baby girl holding it down and that's solid 💯 salute 🫡

Part of it is also the nature of our attention spans decreasing. I feel like I used to have way more concentration ability, and as an adult in my late 20s and older ( started around the time smart phones and social Media became popular) it has shrunk tremendously

I am so blessed by your testimony Miya, feeling Holy Spirit as you talk. My son is autistic and I am learning all I can....Agree and love your testimony. No shame. Just enjoy God 🙏

Hey Aashna im so proud of you ❤❤

Thank You

I was diagnosed with ADHD at age 35. The evaluation also included an IQ test and placed me into a moderately gifted category. My young academic life was haunted by the words "capable of doing better."

I'm so glad I ran into this podcast after seeing a brief interview with Jordyn in a news interview. Thank you, UA-cam algorithm. I also want to thank you so much for having human-edited captions onscreen during the entire podcast. Really helps me process the information better when I get *matching, synchronized* written and auditory information.

As an audhd person who struggles with long videos, thankyou for putting up the Chapter list. Super helpful And it's surprising to see someone with my same diagnosis but from a totally different culture talking about these things in a very familiar way. Hopefully that means that awareness and understanding of these conditions is growing around the world. ✌️

I have aphantasia too and dont talk in my head...

Never felt more connected to another human. My experience is similar. This is massively helpful to to me. I am 60 diagnosed 3 years ago

I’m not autistic but I can relate a lot, specifically in the part were it’s a battle in my mind all the time about what is expected from me and who I am or what life have set up me to be, and trying to be perfect because that is what is expected by everyone, now I’m trying to rest in the Grace of Christ because that’s the reason why He sacrificed for me, because he knew I was not going to be perfect… ✝️✝️✝️

I am been diagnosed officially with ADHD and ASD. My doctors have been unhelpful, obstructive, angry, denying me of any ADHD meds because apparently the Government won’t allow us to have them because they are too expensive. I am stupefied by their cruelty. How many other issues are they not helping people with? There are good doctors, bad doctors and selfish governments.

I can relate to her experience with anger and rage toward the world and society and also feeling less socially anxious now that the Holy Spirit is always with me. For a moment I felt that my Autism had disappeared also.. She made some great points!

What a great interview ☺

It’s so confusing figuring it what is going wrong because you’re deviating from Gods path versus what is your autism and mental illness and what is both. Really truly confusing

You also need to understand how much of your failure is because you weren’t “following Gods Will for your life/idolatry versus your add autism pther issues just messing up your life scxhpol relationships jobs etc I’m still wondering can it be Both like I’ll be ok when every last bit of idolatry is gone and or so I tackle the autism and go to a Paychoatriat psychologist diagnosis Will this be the final stint I often think about the woman w the issue of blood and pray-!: hope o can touch the hem of his robe and be done with this failure to thrive and confusion about what went wrong and how do I fix it

I have audHD and really need a mentor and counselor that is a Christian but also educated and understands being on the spectrum- gets it from aholy Spirit. Like basically, open to the truth about me from Holy Spirit.

There is so much guilt and shame…. Especially when we grew up not diagnosed or others not officially knowing our neurotype is different Gaslit. Like judged when misunderstood. And yes…. Because of drive or special onterests… it’s hard to make anything important and when we don’t succeed we worry that our interestzmayhavebecome idolatry…but then we want to put him first and lose all interest in everything -Ie become depressed Wow what you just said- you can’t sing worship songs and read Bible all day. Even if you want to, it’s healthy to make yourself go out be with friends etc It’s really confusing being a believer and understand g it while integrating into other Christian culture On my own, it seemed like Holy Apirit was Anyways. Thank you

You are so beautiful and unique…. 🙏

This is my story. At 46…it started. Still need to work through it at almost 50

So funny two people always ask me about my accent Farsi was my first language, but it was also my brothers and my sisters and I’m the only one with a kind of weird accent. That’s not even a Persian accent.

I don’t know if there’s a group or we can talk, especially if we’re not diagnosed yet, but I’ve been going through hell most of my life, especially when I burnt down and can’t mask anymore and tried everything and basically I guess I have believers, but I hate to say that they’re black. The ones are the most passionate are from other cultures and I wanna believe them that God is everything and there’s no such thing as illness or autism with this or that but at the same time they haven’t lived in my body with my life and the truth is, I know cause I’ve lived and it starts a spiritual dilemma now that I’ve talked to you know I’ve given I’ve gotten exhausted with the medical system a little bit and like I’m going to the Lord, but at the same time prevent so many things it gets a little confusing. I really wanna talk to people because I’m 50 and my parents are getting older and I feel guilty and I really need to straighten out my thoughts and my actions and my job and my life and all of this and it’s nothing truly that only medication or even therapy is gonna do like, so I’ve stopped the therapy because it’s it started to get harmful for someone. I mean they’re giving you Neurotypical therapy and you’re getting traumatized because they think you’re not listening you know and you even wonder if you’re doing this I mean seriously

Very good. It's an example of expression where she understood herself and explained bravely.

It was a really enlightening conversation. It makes you look at people around you with empathy and acknowledge their struggles.

I can relate so well to so much of Miya's story, especially the self loathing for not being able to perform well enough and not being "spiritual" enough. I've been a Christian for almost 40 years and a missionary for almost 30 years, and still struggle. I'm not officially diagnosed (yet), but realized only a year ago that I'm probably autistic, after decades of struggling. I'm still trying to find out how to live as an autistic christian missionary... ;-)

Thank you for this video!! I agree that there isn't resources for us, bravo!

I’m so grateful for this interview. Thank you so much for speaking to so much of what I needed to hear. Diane, thank you for your incredible vision, passion and ethic of service to support others and cultivate community.

David is such an inspirational, gold medal human! 🥇 😃 ❤

me at work everyday! the only black man here in the entire company. I wonder if they ever feel any guilt? do they feel at all?

How do we join?

Thanks v much for this information and ur honesty Hamish. Great to see u soo confident and articulate. V well done to u. 🌸🌸💕🇮🇪

I'm AuDHD and I'm a follower of Christ. I struggle with the wrong teachings of the church, however I got to a point in my life where I said, this is me get over it. So I too love Anime, shows and music that is supposedly not Christian... I will tell them I watched "Lucifer" and liked the show. I tell them this, I know that is fiction, I know who Satan really is. I also listen to music I was told was of the devil. Metallica, Iron Maiden etc. I was like wow really.. Metallica Creeping Death straight from the bible. It's about Moses and Israel was saved from Egypt and the Passover etc. Then Iron Maiden I learned about Alexander the Great and other things. Just because it's Heavy Metal, don't make it of Satan. I've been lucky that the Lord has been with me all my life and taught me through a hand full of dreams he gave me and also speaking to me through the holy spirit. I struggled with my Salvation because the Church seems to teach, saved by grace through faith, but then they start teaching you the law. The Lord showed me that it was truly Finished on the cross. I no longer have to fear my salvation because I put my trust in him and in his completed work on the cross. We are still in the flesh and will still sin until we get our glorified bodies. I come before Christ as a broken sinner and say I believe what you say and that in you I am saved. I'm glad I found you to be honest. Other Autistics who have talked about Faith basically say it's nonsense. One guy we as far as to say well we all know Evolution is proven or something. I was like Evolution is another faith. You have faith in something that has not been proven. I hope to see more people like us you have strong Faith in Christ. :)

Thank you so much for this.

13:25 OH NO THE HOTSAUCE 💀
