I was diagnosed as autistic a few years back when I was 60. I am still struggling to come terms with the diagnosis even though I had begun to suspect that I was, oddly after I had taken four years training as a counsellor during which I was praised for my insights into clients' concerns eg understanding the subtext of the situations they described. One disappointment was that having gone through life being entertained by my own imagination and feeling I was special in a good way, I now feel like a textbook case. I spend most of my time alone now, not wishing to upset peopole - although I still do that, just on-line
My friend, who I've known since school, was diagnosed at nearly 50. When she told me I was like ahhh that makes sense. She feels better knowing about her autism, she now knows that all of her lists and databases are all for a reason. Also that she's not stupid, scatty or lazy, she autistic. CBT has helped her massively
I hate labels, they're very reductionist. No two people are the same, first and foremost we're individuals.
me too
“You can do it, put your back in to it” is my favourite line, cause I can hear the song in my head 😂❤
I have been formally diagnosed very late in life. It has been a struggle. However at least I understand more now.
What have you learned that helps you understand and / or function. Only answer if you feel like it. ♡
Older lady here (and retired school teacher)...my best friend is autistic. Brilliant, artistic woman and perfect just the way she is. I told her to take a look at this---she said, "So, if I subscribe to his channel, the birds will not shit on my car?! That is awesome!" I did explain.
Yep. The other 95+ percent also likely have no clue at how difficult difficulties in these three areas can make life! Nor how rich they can make it! If I could make words and those consistently, then maybe I could explain such things. Thanks for providing useful insights on this!!!
Agree, I suspect it's more than 1 in 100. I live in NYC and have worked at some public corporations. A friend who worked higher up in human resources helped me understand how to recognize autistic coworkers. She believed that over half of all the C-suite executives were on the spectrum and she is correct. Next time you are at a business conference at a top company, pay attention! You will have a revelation. They are also the majority of most of the Meetup organizers. Not all, but I'd say the majority. They love organizing Meetups! I'm not sure why, but I have attended many Meetups and was intrigued that over 90% of the organizers (group leaders and initiators) were on the spectrum. They make great Meetup facilitators!
Thank you for this! Looking forward to part 2!
Studies have revealed significant gender disparities in autism diagnosis, as males are diagnosed at substantially higher rates compared to females (Lai et al., 2015). Factors contributing to the underdiagnoses of females with autism include diagnostic criteria based on male presentations of the disorder and a lack of awareness among professionals of the unique characteristics of autism presentation in females (Rynkiewicz et al., 2016). Furthermore, research indicates gender differences in referrals for therapy services, with autistic boys referred more frequently than autistic girls (Cridland et al., 2014). This referral disparity could reflect the wider societal perception of autism as a male-dominated disorder and the requirement for increased understanding and education surrounding the unique requirements of female autistic individuals. This is a little chunk from my MA dissertation 😊
👆the only person in the comments who knows what they're talking about
Yep. Female here, finally got diagnosed at 50
@@somersetaussi Thank you!!! Good luck too!
You can thank Simon Baron-Cohen for that highly male skiewed view of ASD. Total tool
Thank you for speaking up for us, good luck with your masters 🙏🏽🩷
So many folks have autism and by meeting so many folks I have learned to recognize the signs. I feel it's pretty apparent in the body language and facial expressions. Aspergers: there is often a remoteness. For the high-functioning types, it's there, you will notice it in the social remoteness and hyper focus in work, machine-like focus. The more people you are exposed to, the more you will be better at starting to notice it. Many of the symptoms you describe are stereotypes of lower functioning autistics. Most of the autistic people I have met do not necessarily fit neatly into your profile. It is often more subtle and not so obvious. Aspergers: they are often in high level positions in Fortune 500 companies in NYC.
i'm glad you made a video about autism!! i hoped for it in the comments some videos back. my sense of humor is quite unique i guess but people tend to love it!! or at least other medical students, all of my jokes are medicine related puns. i think my delivery makes it even funnier because i'm very monotone and can seem like a very serious and unfunny person at first so you wouldn't expect a person like me to be a real jokester. i sometimes miss sarcasm but i've learned to be more aware of it so i can ask whether someone was being sarcastic or not. people can't always tell whether i am being sarcastic or not either but sometimes i am able to use sarcasm successfully and sometimes i add that it was sarcasm for clarification. i also don't feel pressured to laugh if i don't find something funny. especially when people are just being mean and masking it as a joke.
Definitely agree with more than 1 in 100 are diagnosed autistic in the UK, especially as everyone is lumped into the “spectrum.” I am all 4 out of 5 😂 not looking forward to part 2 cause I know that I’m going to be called out! But I can’t wait for part 2 at the same time 🤣 Thanks Dr Das 👍🏽
Personally I found your style really engaging, i followed you from the ICMAP podcast. 😊
1 in 100? Oh, that's so cute! On my maternal side we have ~17% ASD & another 17% ADD. Yes, it's definitely genetic. I've been independently studying the chromosomal anomaly in my family for the past few years (biochemist/ genetic genealogist) & was shocked to discover a small group of distantly related individuals who also had the same anomaly. I have definitively traced it back 6 generations but still haven't found the common ancestor for the extended group which has some fascinating evolutionary implications.
And yes, my oldest daughter (who's half Bengali) is ASD, and doing very well. About to graduate from a performing arts college. So, WOC with ASD are out there, but you often don't find what you're not looking for...
1 in 100 is an old start from over a decade ago. Latest I've read is 1 in 23. that's due to several things. like Combining 4 disorders in DSM to 1 spectrum. Then late diagnosis and women being diagnosed. So that makes sense. Roughly 4 times the diagnoses now. Add women for more and the late diagnoses of women and men.
Thank you for sharing this information.
Female adult Autistic here, i think females are under diagnosed as women are often told to calm down and stop getting emotional. So we get swept under the carpet. Also, it was really hard for me to get an assessment as I had to justify to my NHS Therapist why I felt I needed the assessment. Well hello obviously to see if I have Autism which I suspected I had due to me thinking differently to others. To add insult to injury, the Therapist then said even if you did get a diagnosis of Autism, how will that make any different to your life. I literally had to justify, yes it would as it would help me look into the matter further and learn acceptance of myself.
"your jokes are so inside that their own gravity forces them to collapse inside themselves" > someone gets me!!!
Love your daft jokes mate. Keep them coming
I'd be interested to know more about ADHD or ADD please.
Already recorded! Will be out on the channel in the next couple of weeks.
Hi, Ominous Shahominous!
sup x
🖼Hi Dr. Das. The autistic people I've known in my life are either antisocial, violent, or both. I don't care for either of these because I have anxiety & their behavior just makes my condition worse. Thanks for your good explanation of these difficult, easily misunderstood folks. I love your channel & and I hope you're doing fine, ✌️ peace, love, Miss Janine💯🍩🌴🧸🚘🎶🎵🌺
Well, this explains a lot.
Ever heard of the double empathy. People on the spectrum are human. My empathy with others on spectrum is spot on. With other human no so great. Cognitive empathy I can't recognized it's the response to it that get messed up. As person the spectrum, I love going to club. One huge caveat, has to pay the right music. Heavy Metal and not issues at all. Country bar, and nope can't do it. It's as bad as going into a body shop. What's with wannabe cowboys and cologne, do they bath in it.
If the most common age for Autism diagnosis is 5-years old. The how does this fit with the fact that mental disorders come out when we're 17/18 during adolescence when our true personality comes out?
I have been working with an individual who has Agenes of Corpus Collosum. He has recently been subject to Criminal Justice System Intervention. I would be interested to know your views if this condition exascipates offending behaviours.
Ooh you have a book.. I am off to buy it!
Maybe we need a new word for autism which is hard to spot. I have worked with extremely autistic adults who needed full time care because they could not look after themselves or control their behaviour. Those on the "spectrum", especially self diagnosed TikTokkers are a whole different thing. Love your vids Doc.
Self-diagnosis is a problem online, also many young people thinking it's "cool" to be autistic. It isn't. I was diagnosed late and my life has been a car crash and still is.
i don't think those tiktokers you are referring to should be considered autistic at all (not all self diagnosed tiktokers but i know what you're talking about) so we don't really need a new word for it, we can just call them quirky. we just need to acknowledge that it is a spectrum and some people have very high support needs while some don't. i know it can be frustrating to see people who are just a little quirky or have very low support needs or have never met a person with high support needs speaking over those with high support needs, throwing them under the bus or completely distancing themselves from them. i hate it too as an autistic person with low support needs. my autism is somewhat visible as in people can tell that there's something different about me. even i feel ostracized by the "just a little quirky autistics" sometimes because they can be quite mean when your autism isn't just all quirky, you are socially different or do something they consider cringey.
As an “high functioning” autistic woman, I agree! I think it’s unfair to them and myself to be lumped into a spectrum, because as always, the more seen people will get the attention, empathy and understanding and the lesser seen will always be seen to be “faking” it or being lazy! I’m annoyed that the diagnosis of asperger was taken away, it should just have been renamed! People understand the difference between asperger and autism purely because they are two different names and MAYBE life would be a crumb better for us!
@@Jae-by3hf Yes the split between autism and Asperger was sensible but it turned out Herr Asperger was quite a nasty man doing horrible things for the Nazis. They could just give it another name though.
I’d love to know your thoughts about potential over diagnosis of autism in adults currently. I have lost count the number of people trying to get assessed and who think they are on the spectrum. Even listening to them I start to wonder if I should get a diagnosis myself. What would rule someone in and out of a diagnosis?
A typical case: socially anxious, sensitive to external sounds, crowds, tendency to isolate, sensitive to scratchy clothes, bullied at school, has some symptoms of adhd also, ruminates on social interactions, feels different.
I feel this is basically most patients I assess, plus myself. Surely we are not all autistic?
Where is the line?
lol doc 😂
Avoid the ranting, blathering and weak jokes and just explain it properly. Thanks.
Great advice. Cheers
@@APsychForSoreMinds No. I would like more ranting, weak jokes and quotes from Socrates please!
If anything, the jokes aren't weak enough! Some more blathering wouldn't go amiss, as well.
@@Quadrajettison most of us are here for all 3
I like your jokes, it’s part of your charm
