    Oh man this is incredibly interesting. I learned that I whisper after I speak when I was in about 6th grade (my mom thought I knew so she didn’t tell me) and I’ve always wondered why I do it. I don’t realize I’m doing it most of the time, but people don’t typically comment on it unless they’re really close to me, like my best friend or my partner. It’s not surprising if it’s from ASD, I’ve never been diagnosed but my brother has. I don’t know how often I do it cuz I almost never catch myself doing it, but I know I do.

    My son is 4 and recently started this thing where he tried to say what we say as we say it, same with tv shows or songs- It started when he liked songs and tried to sing them but didn’t know the words so would quietly sing what they sang as simultaneously as possible, with only a slight delay, & gradually became something he did with tv shows, then everyday conversations. He doesn’t always do it, but very frequently. Is this a form of echolalia?

  • @orbismworldbuilding8428
    @orbismworldbuilding8428 Рік тому

    My cousin has palilalia, and i have a weird form of it too. I didn't always think in words and speaking, even after i had learned to speak. I used to repeat things i heard others say (for example I'd say something a character in a moviehad said) because i didn't know how to form my own words for it to communicate the idea i was trying to get across or contribute to conversations At around 10 i learned to read, and somewhere between 14 and 16 i developed an internal monologue, not just thinking in feelings, concepts and senses(sounds, pictures/video, smells, and rarely textures) anymore. But it started originally as me whispering things to myself as a child, before i would begin to close my mouth make no sound and just move my tongue. I can think in words without moving my tongue now, but it's harder. I sometimes have a hard time discerning if i said something using my internal monologue or if i said it outloud sometimes, and separate to that i need to repeat what i said in my internal monologue to be certain that i thought those words correctly. Also i have a hard time thinking verbal thoughts while listening to and fully processing speech because of this. I use my internal monologue and hidden voice to help me process what people are saying, repeating their words. It can be hard for me to swith between listening and speaking because of this, im not planning what to say in response much i am just repeating what i heard to help process it. Communicating through text is way easier for me because it caters to my speak/listen thing and helps me process what people are saying better than hearing. Plus i get time to think about what i am saying and i don't have to try and remember what has already been said. Text is an accomodation for me.

    Thank you for the video, as someone who has APD, I can really resonate with echoing back what the other person said. I noticed that when I particularly am having speech delays during a conversation, I will repeat what they’re saying silently with moving my lips as minimally as possible, and it really helps me process the language. Because to you, I know now why I do that.

    My kid is 13, but only just got diagnosed with ASD. He didn’t have delayed speech as a toddler (if anything it was the opposite. Huge vocabulary, but slightly behind in a lot of motor skills), but he’s had palalia almost as long as I can remember. I remembered my little brother doing it and figured my kid would grow out of it, but he hasn’t. At first I thought it was a normal part of learning language. All this time I thought he never exhibited echolalia, but your descriptions make me think he did when he was little. But again, I assumed it was normal language learning. Like, if I said “let’s clean up” and he said “clean up!” I’d just say, “That’s right, we’re cleaning up. Clean up.” while putting blocks in the basket or whatever. It just seemed like typical toddler language learning to me. Even when he repeated words and phrases he already knew, it still felt like language learning. Like his brain was reinforcing the term. This is causing me to re-evaluate a lot, lol. I’ve already been looking at him and realized that a lot of the behaviors I thought were just things he does when he feels silly or different ones when he feels relaxed/sleepy, are actually him stimming.

    I am probably in denial that my child has some form of autism. He has echolalia and I have put it off for some time that he may be autistic as well. He seems to respond emotionally and he seems more at ease and tries to converse when he is in his comfort zone so I was not worried for a time. COVID lockdowns were no help as well since he was only over 18mos when it started. I still want to believe he is just very shy with echolalia as a speech delay rather than part of the spectrum. He has his own channel, Baby Savie, if you would like some reference on how he is.

He still has a lot to catch up on speech-wise, but as baby steps go, he has been skipping and hopping. It pays to have a supportive therapist, a welcoming school, an encouraging family and a positive attitude from my son as well. His happy demeanor makes it easier for everyone to push through all the difficulties.

They differ from person to person so there is sometimes no magic formula to understand why people act the way that they do. That goes for humans in general!! 😊

      Thanks so much for posting this. It's such confirmation for me that I do know my son best. He's 2 and I started noticing things when he was an infant. He definitely expresses with echolalia. Thank you for mentioning the struggle with discipline and having what you said repeated back. It helps to know I'm not the only one who gets frustrated. My son does it with a smile on his face lol He has been evaluated in all areas and they have said there are a lot of "red flags" for Autism and that they will retest at 33 months. For now, we are going to start speech, in home stimulation specialist, and OT feeding. I feel with all of my heart that my son is Autistic. I've known since he was an infant when he would throw our hands off of him when we tried to touch him lovingly. To needing a very very specific routine for sleeping. Then being able to count on one hand how many times he made eye contact with me. It's a lot more now but he has only done it once while I'm holding him and never while breastfeeding. Etc. Anyways, I have a couple questions for you. Did your son use phrases in one situation that came from a different situation to express a need in another situation even though the word or phrase isn't obvious to the new situation. Lol I realize that's probably confusing. I'll give you an example. My son will repeat I know I know I know baby when he gets hurt or feels uncomfortable because we say oh I know I know baby when he gets hurt or feels upset. He also will say sit down baby when he sits down instead of just sitting down because I say to him sit down baby, but not at that exact time. Another thing he does is he will repeat the word vacuum over and over for a couple minutes when he sees the vacuum or just at other times, and he will do that many times over the course of a day or he will pick our plumber's name to do the same with. He also repeats phrases that seemingly have nothing to do with the situation Like he will say I pressed it when he didn't press anything. I have yet to decipher that one. It may be a delayed echolalia. Or he will flap his arms when he is upset or frustrated. Sometimes he runs to a corner to say no no no no for a bit when he's upset. He also will keep doing the same things over and over no matter how many times we redirect, explain, or tell him no. It's like he HAS to do them. Things like throw the lamp off of the side table, open the oven and stand on it, open the washer and throw something in it. When he does it, he gets all giddy lol I really related to the part when you said you thought you were getting somewhere with speech. My son just recently had a language explosion. Now I realize it's mostly just imitation. I mean, he will use a few words sometimes like the dog's name when he hears her bark and he definitely can say hi to his Dad. So I'm just wondering if any of this sounds familiar to you?

    I don't know if you will have the opportunity to read this comment but if you do I want to thank you for sharing your family's ASD journey. Your story is very similar to my own. You are right when you said no one understands what it is like to parent a child on the spectrum unless you have personally done so. My sons journey to diagnosis was a very rough time in our lives. Things have gotten better with time, therapy, support etc. But those years in-between were a struggle. So thanks again for sharing and reminding me where we came from and that we are our child's biggest supporters.

    This is very helpful! Thank you for being so transparent. I do have a question..Did Max ever only repeat the last sound that he heard when you were talking to him? For example, lets say you were teaching him "water" but he only said "wa" ..so then you slow down and enunciate "wa-ter", and this time, he would only repeat the "ter" part. Was that something you experienced before he started repeating whole sentences? I've been doing some research and I cannot find anything on this and if this is something to be concerned with for a child who is a late talker (almost 2 1/2 yrs old). If anyone has helpful input, that would be great as well

      HI Christina, Sadly this doesn't sound familiar so I wont be able to comment. Max always used the full words. Do you have a pediatrician or speech therapist? They may know the technical name for that which would enable you to do more research :) All the Best x
