    I, as someone with adhd, find it absolutely disabling and as such would like to keep the disorder bit. It is in no way normal and if we find a cure for the condition, I'm all for it.

      @truckywuckyuwu Yeah. I figured that out already. Unfortunately life is uncooperative with my needs and so I must adapt. Which is easier said than done.

    Hi there. Would it be possible to do an episonde on HSPs (highly sensitive people) who are not autistic. HSP seams to be similar to sensory processing disorder. It generally overlaps with autism, but not always. There is a subgroup of autistic people who actually don't have sensory processing disorder and HSPs who are not autistic. I believe that some people who are suffering in the world due to sensory issues, but are not autistic run into trouble because they don't get an autism diagnosis, yet have a large chunk of the symptoms.

    This is so true! I am probably ADHD, my son and a nephew were diagnosed as such, and others in my family have typical characteristics. We can concentrate, even obsessively on something that interests us but tend to jump from.one thought or activity to another. Do 2 things as once and find it hard to relax or concentrate due to being unable to stop thinking about a variety of subjects.

    @thesagebrushkid1 3 дні тому

    It’s the “attention deficit” bit I don’t like. It doesn’t show the impact that living with adhd has on people, I think it makes it easy to dismiss adhd as nothing serious and just a bit annoying rather than a lifelong condition that can make life really difficult for a lot of people. I don’t mind the term “disorder” funnily enough. It can add a bit of heft if adhd is not being taken seriously. My adhd partner struggles in work sometimes with adhd related things, and he gets penalised for them with no sympathy or understanding that some things don’t come naturally to him, or that he’s trying his best but finding things difficult. Saying “look it’s a disorder, my brain is wired differently, it’s a freaking medical condition” at least gets somewhere in having them take it seriously. I’d love it to have a more flashy name. Get some Latin in there! Make it something mysterious!

    We're touching clothes that look nice, cause we gotta confirm if it's sensory friendly. My mom often gets clothes that are passed down between co-workers, for me (aka other get stuff, too, for themselves or their kids). And she already knows when to tun stuff down cause she knows to check for the feel and vice versa 😂

    We don’t do that, but this did remind me that my husband laughs as I fold laundry because I will occasionally and unconsciously put an item to my face to smell and feel it. 😂

  • @FlubberGamer
    @FlubberGamer 5 днів тому

    I don’t consciously do that, but thinking about it now, I love good textures and smells and will hold it up to my mouth to get a sense of both. Clean new clothes almost always smell delicious, and the feel of new fabric on your lips is sensational, especially something like a cardigan with thick threads. Neurodivergency is a beautiful thing to be a part of, especially when people are able to communicate these seemingly very individualistic experiences that we all seem to share.

    Worried about autims, don't vaccinate your child. Read some books on the subject why many people do not vaccinate their children. Those people who do vaccinate their child, may believe it caused no problem to their health, and I certainly hope so but fact is, those parents will neve know how their child's ability would have been if left unvaccinated. The other thing is, you can always get the child vaccinated, but once is't in his blood, you can never take those vaccines out again. Anxiety? Do a search for dr. Georgia Ede. just listen to what she has to say. She is amazing.

    Menschen, die das sagen, können andere Menschen nicht sehen. Wenn Sie ihre Rolle in Heartstopper gespielt haben, konnte ich an ihrem Sprechverhalten erkennen, dass ihre Stimme nicht gewohnt ist und war in der Öffentlichkeit sich wie gehabt entfalten konnte, wie in der Rolle gefordert war. Ebenso verfügen Sie über eine sehr markante Körpersprache, die Ihnen sehr viel Kraft abverlangt. Ich bewundere Ihre Offenheit, mit der Sie anderen betroffenen Menschen Wege aufzeigen sich für Chancen in ihrem sozialen Leben zu öffnen. Bleiben Sie weiterhin weltoffen und präsent für Menschen die an der selben Diagnose leiden.

If I got bed early at 1 am then sleep for 20-30 minutes and wake for 30 minutes repeating till after 1 am. Sometime I can even get to sleep till it get close to 1 am.
