  • Film shows an example of what was once called symbiotic psychosis, and falls under the ASD umbrella today. In this film we see a Freudian approach to the condition, with mention of Mike's "orally destructive impulses" and a treatment goal of "ego differentiation". 1960s were the time of divergence from the psychoanalytic theories that characterized the prior 80 years.

      I'm curious where you think the cause of autism lies. At 50 yrs old I'm here because as a child I remember no one ever having autism. Since then I've known two adults with children affected. I don't believe it was going undiagnosed as the sole reason. I'm sure it happened but I consider things that have changed since the 70s. Everything from drinks and food coming in plastic containers to other drugs prescribed for a random condition finding it's way into these kids. I truly suspect the pharmaceutical industry knows. I'm no conspiracy theorist but drug companies today have zero interest in curing anything. It's more profitable to keep people sick and big pharma pays the FDA to do whatever they wish. It's corrupted at best and down right sinister is more likely.

    Autism and ADHD aren't sicknesses. They are what you were born with. I was born with Autism and ADHD. I was disabled that was a slow learner and destroyed things and touch things. I was in Special Ed from pre-school in 2010 through 7th grade in the 2020 school year. I was in 6th grade and at 2nd grade reading level, but managed to improve at least. Now I am a General Ed student in my Sophmore year and has no more symptoms. Now since I am smarter and more intelligent, I can write long essays like I am making this comment. I do sometimes play with certain objects when my ADHD kicks in, but I do manage to control it when I realize it. Anyways, have a good day and good luck.

    I wanted to yell at the first so-called "teacher" or "psychologist" or whatever he was. Mike was clearly bored and wanted something he COULD do. He didn't have the words to ask, "Okay, so what CAN I do? What CAN I play with?" The instructor should have given Mike suggestions for things he could do. Mike's way of asking for this information was to say "I wanna touch it." Yet, anything he suggested was rejected by the instructor. I'm honestly surprised Mike didn't throw a fit after being told the room was "scary" and being repeatedly told "No you can't..." I would have thrown a fit, and I DON'T have autism!
    Did the "instructor" just expect this poor child to walk into the room, sit down and do nothing? If so, he should have at least told him that was his expectation instead of letting this young boy try to figure it out on his own. The only thing that may have qualified as an "instruction", so-to-speak, was when the guy said "You're afraid your hands and mouth are going to do bad things all the time, Mike, hmmm?" That's sending the message to Michael that the instructor expected Mike to come into the room and "do bad things," for Pete's sake!
    And, when Mike wanted to read a book, instead of saying, "that's a great choice," he says "The first thing you think about is tearing it." Ummm, well, maybe not, but if you tell a kid what the kid is thinking about (are you psychic??), then subconsciously, Mike's going to think, "oh, wait, yeah, I'm supposed to tear up the book instead of reading it."
    I get that this may have been considered common practice from teachers and/or psychologists back then. But I'm really having difficulty understanding how this guy can't put himself in Mike's position for a minute to think about what message he's sending to Mike. I also can't understand how the guy is so dumb he can't figure out that Mike simply wanted something to do or something to play with. I can't believe this guy was even able to get a degree allowing him to work with children. He obviously doesn't understand them enough to help them properly!

I don't know if a formal diagnosis is going to help much now, except to confirm what I have already discovered by myself. It's just good to have a reason why my life has been so difficult. I managed to cope. I just wonder, how much better it might have been, if I had found out earlier.

    I can really understand this child. The therapist is so annoying. Just giving instructions, no reasons. No wonder, that most nails are far away from her. This guy is really well educated accepting and even asking help from her. They don't even appreciate, that he is looking whether the nails get's through the piece of wood, which shows technical interest which the therapist seemingly doesn't share. She is only interested in making him obey her instructions. Is this meant to be social useful behaviour? It would be much more useful to ask for his decisions or why he is doing this or that. He is reflecting on what he is doing. But the therapist isn't. The main point isn't about accepting help - I'm not even sure whether teaching how to use the hammer would have been much more effective - it is about to share his thoughts. That's the main difficulty if this boy. He does not know her thoughts, he thinks she's stupid. As she doesn't explain why he should put the nail here or there, he sees no reason to follow her will. He has no sense of authority. So why is she embarassing him about where to put the nails? And he thinks it makes no sense at all to have so much ineffective talks. Why should he answer? She's not interested in his thoughts at all. A psychologist might have known, why he puts all nails on one side - far away from her. And might have adressed it. And even found out whether this was about putting all nails together or about getting away from her. And watch the last nail: every time it fall down he will put it a bit further from the place she told him to put it - and she doesn't even realize he's smarting her out 😄 autistic humour!
    - how I know his thoughts? I have two of them at home - and I am asking them about their emotions and thoughts. And I am explaining my thoughts before telling them to do something.

    • @pardist
      @pardist Рік тому +1

      No. The therapist is doing it right. She is teaching him how to relate to others and remove his attention from obsessions onto himself and how he is with others. She is building his self esteem towards getting something done that he enjoys in company. Later he can learn to enjoy company without the need of obsessing. Later the child won't be bullied into being told he lacks social skills (negatively) and have things used against him to get manipulated as he can then say "I played with x y z" "I did therapy and it helped me"... therapy may be boring but helps.

      Yes but the mother to whom that is obvious doesn't cause autism in the first place. ASD is severe anxious attachment. ADHD is severe avoidant attachment. The abandonment of (withdrawal from) self in ADHD responds more reliably to medication than the retreat (withdrawal) into self of ASD because even though both are sequelae of gross emotional neglect the autistic patient's inward-facing boundary porosity hasn't split-off from its unrecognized unidentified unclaimed emotions. Neither has been shown how to self-regulate but as part of his self abandonment the ADHD patient has inadvertently disavowed responsibility for doing so. If an ego had yet formed to decompensate perhaps there'd be some vector of benefit for medicating ASD, but it's already introspection on overdrive.

      Yes all these abusive authorities want is a citizenry of compliant mindless zombies.
      The whole psychiatry industry is a corrupt sham. They are legal drug pushers. Nothing more. I go over all that on my channel.
      The reason they call it mental disorders is because our brains refuse to follow their abusive toxic orders.
      We were never meant to be in such submissive rigorous situations where the only thing that matters is our compliance.
      It is all, by definition, abuse.

      You are obviously still ignorant to what that medication does.
      This is a disgusting display of ignorance and abuse on these adults part.
      That child just wanted to do things his way.
      These rigorous authoritarians are simply trying to show that due to his insistence on being independent he raises his voice and refuses to comply.
      All these tyrants want is compliance.
      Which goes back to the medication.
      Before you suggest innocent independent souls be put on extremely toxic and brain deadening drugs you should do your due diligence and research what the long term effects of these poisons do.
      Otherwise you are what is called a useful idiot. Toeing the line for the slave masters who want nothing but obedient mindless groupthinking zombies.
      I have a playlist on my channel that goes over these things.
      I would suggest you start researching. If you do you certainly wouldn’t leave such a foolish comment.

    OK, so they called Michael sadistic, but I have to wonder with what's going on with him. He seemed a little bit aggressive at first. And then he calmed down when his teacher told him it was all right to touch things. He does seem overly compulsive with just wanting to touch and it does sound like he has a vocabulary kind of in line with a 2 or 3-year-old. Sometimes I wonder if this has to do with the parents related to over authoritarian type parents because a lot of us in this era had parents like that who were very authoritarian parents and just wanted kids to sit down and be good all the time. So when I look at Michael and I see this in this video. Then I wonder if he was told to sit still all the time at home. So when he goes to school, then he wants to explore and do things at school that he can't do it at home.

    Autistic children should have special schools to meet their needs.
    The trend to mainstream them is ridiculous as teachers already are overwhelmed and simply can’t teach & don’t have the extra time to hold everyone else back while dealing with problems like this.
    This is why I stopped teaching & why the mass exodus of good teachers.

    How dumb could that teacher get? I d never let my 6 year old grandson handle or a ven use a weapon like the hammer! He was "symbiotic l" too. The oy didnbt want her to lay her hand on that hammer! She s lucky he didn t but her with it when she insisted upon helping him hold the ladder. He wanted his way or the highway! This is how my grandson is. If he doesn't get to touch then he ll throw it.Ig doesn t matter what he s told he can t touch,fir in the he end he ll do whatever he pleases ahlnd when he pleases! He won t accept the whole rd "no" in any given time. Good luck! aI must explain to him in his stubbornness that he can t do what he wants. I tell him firmly the no word then he squirms to get away from me. I met him go. If be returns and riies the same behavior then I tell him he s not ready to learn about his to treat an item yet. He won t given up wh n he gets the chance to enter my apartment. He ll without permission to to my guitar and if he can t hold it ,he ll throw it because he dreams of breaking it!

      I had slightly similar issues as a child, the child like this boy feels an emotional response in almost every moment of his life, imagine you are being forced to cry but at the same time have some definition of happy, you become an asshole.
      No one here can sit there and tell me it's not enjoyable to be an asshole
      Imagine if that situation forces you between the two. Which would you choose?
      Its an obsession with power, and the desire to need it. Feeling powerful can come in many ways, and I believe it is often searched by those most vulnerable.
      If ancient Greece has taught us anything, we humans have deep roots of pain and suffering, desiring power is far too familiar with us.
