In My Mind

inspired by "In My Mind" from olinkalex

In recognition of Autism awareness month

We hope we could make the film realistic, it was based off of our research of characteristics of autism and asperger's. Considering autism is a "spectrum disorder" (though we do not feel it is a disorder), many people dignosed act differently so it was a challenge to represent, but we hope you like it.

Also, we would like to note that even though our video is set solemnly, in no way do we feel that autism or asperger's is a bad thing. We simply made the video sad in order for people who are unfamiliar with autism to pay close attention and hopefully be inspired to look into information about it.

Thank again to alex for inspiring us!

@ashanna91 Well that's why i said in most cases i don't speak for every one lol.

The film is good, but there could be more about treatment... it seems like no one ever worked with her, no therapy. There usually is, especially if the child is diagnosed, somebody usually works with him. I don't think she would be that advanced, but would be far more severe if no one ever treated her. I don't think there's anyone that would just be by himself like she was, with no therapy nor anything. Also there's no need for routine pictured or meltdowns. seems like just a shy awkward kid...

@toyy7675 Who says we'd not, I usually did and they just said "go away, you're not like us", or they looked at me strangely whenever I said something wrong or made a mistake. I was not aloof, I wanted friends. I just did never know how to read the 'tact'. Know what I mean? Not everyone is anxious about what people are gonna think, so I know many with AS that try and just come out as awkward. ;)

Just to let you know in most cases we with aspergers would never walk over to some one to try to talk.

We don't know how they would react and are afraid for there reaction, and how every one else around us would react to our actions.

i think that in thiskind situation it is relief to get final answer for why she is like that.
