Hi, good of you to share this. I wonder how much of a crossover there is between OCD and autism. I have moderately severe OCD, but not autism or even Asperger's - I am very much someone who thrives on human contact. However I've always found loud noises very unpleasant in a way that I've recently become aware other people don't, and I take a while to recover from having been startled. Also I hate certain smells like those of certain chemicals, and burning materials in a way that others don't.
@CecilyHeron And the issue of obsessions that you mention. That is of course a trait of OCD. So I wonder if both disorders are just variants of the same thing.
I agree with the comments above. This video is fantastic! IYou are able to articulate your feelings very well and I think this video could really help people without Autism (like me) understand it better.....thanks for sharing
Very well explained, i kinda know what it is like with the routines and stuff because I have OCD and all the time i feel like i am stuck thinking about past and future events when i really just wan't to live in the present! And even though it's easy to speak on camera for me, in real life sometimes i get that thing where you can't look someone in the eyes.
thank you, routine can drive you nuts even if the slightest little thing is out of order. there's a lot of ocd traits that are similar to autism, like i have to walk on my toes up the stairs, i have to line things up, it must be tough living with ocd having to do things heaps of times over and over again. i get people all the time saying, why dont you just look at me when you speak?!
i am absolutely no stranger to the autism community. I work as a receptionist at an Easter Seals (you may have heard of that orginization) facility. I have been around people who have the same condition as you and i know what its like. from my experience, you have to try to be patient with people with autism or any other neurological disability.
@HelpCureAutism In the most respectful way, that kind of comment, though well-intentioned, can be perceived as patronising. I have a sister with a physical disability and people go up to her all the time and say things like that, and "you're beautiful" or "keep positive". It's the thing she hates most about going out. Hope this doesn't sound rude.
I'm borderline autistic and have traits of aspergers. So I guess I could call myself either. But I do some things that people with aspergers dont do. I didn't have a speech delay but I wont speak to strangers immediately.
