Why does the music have to be so foreboding

Good effort & content, but I have well-intended advice. 🙏🏻First, Thank you for making an informative video that includes seemingly well-adapted adults who are also on the spectrum. I would recommend you continue using adult examples, and try to elaborate on what those challenges ACTUALLY look like in adults. I applaud the great effort, but maybe talk to someone who is AA (Actually Autistic) for a better example to demonstrate a trait. For example, the blind man isn’t a fair representation for sensory difficulties, nor is the angry man sort of clapping his hands to emphasize his point to demonstrate “hand flapping” (which is actually very very rarely seen in L2 adults who are well adapted. I realize these were probably available video clips, and I think you’re on the right path. I share these suggestions in total support and encouragement to keep these up, and help “unmask” (pun intended… also, make a video about that!) Autism - ESPECIALLY in adults, teens and older kids. Far too many people, INCLUDING those in early childhood development, FAIL to understand Autism outside of the antiquated stereotypes of autism. Those stereotypes essentially continue to allow people to exclusively perceive Autism as it presents in children, PARTICULARLY, young BOYS who are generally level 3, who ALSO have INTELLECTUAL & VERBAL impairments. I love what you’re doing, it’s more current and changes the framing of “what autism looks like.” We now know GIRLS & WOMEN who are EMPATHETIC, seemingly socially adept (smiling, engaging, energetic - especially when it’s “masking” and overdone/extreme), and who don’t “flap their hands.” More males than females are currently impacted, but the numbers are getting closer. Keep breaking the stereotypes. Show examples of Au males and females, of ALL ages and with ALL abilities. In fact, I’d argue those who are Level 1 or L2 and who LACK the intellectual and verbal deficits, are those who STRUGGLE THE MOST. Those autists are most likely to experience severe breakdowns and mental health emergencies. Please stay on the path you’re on. This a great start! I also echo the sentiment that a more calming, maybe natural (think nature sounds or even coffeehouse music) would be better suited. Thank you

Okay, I can tell that that guy is bummed out, but I’m not sure how to approach that fact; I don’t repeat phrases; I’m not… blind? Why stock video of being blind?; I would like structure and predictability, but because I also have ADHD (and two kids), I can’t really achieve this; What? Why it being in a fight with hand gestures an example of stimming? 🤨; executive dysfunction is just ADHD, bro; what’s so great about social play? I mean, other than that it’s a precursor to being allowed to live in a sturdy home, whether you rent or own it… we don’t need to learn to be neurotypical, we need to be accepted as the complex people with strengths and weaknesses that we are. This video repeats ITSELF a bit, but in spite of all of this, is probably the best description of specifically level 2 autism I’ve seen yet! 😬

IDK if I have Level 1 or Level 2 Autism. But everyone except for my dad says I’m Level 1 while my dad says I’m Level 2.

I have always wondered whether i am level 1 or level 2. I was diagnosed with "Autistic disorder" but i am what people would call "High functioning". But i do think functioning lables has it's problems.

I am a diagnosed level 1 Autistic. I half way through the video… so far everything listed applies to level 1. Autism is a spectrum not a gradient.

3:08 - that's a triple glazed window wow

I can't tell if the music is supposed to be ambient and thereputic, or damaging, scary and a warning

Im not sure if some people with level 2 asd can ne fully nonverbal and some people with level 3 asd can be verbal.

Why are all of these “symptoms” shown so negatively? Echolalia is a kid sitting in the shower fully clothed and looking sad af and doesn’t represent that word at all. Way to continue to keep the stigma that this is a disorder that should be treated instead of finding ways to provide support and seen as equals.

I find this very true. The youth have been and are always apolitical and apathetic to politics. There is a reason why parents are shielding children from the harsh realities of the world. I agree there. Freedom of speeches for the youth, can also do more bad than good. Limits are sometimes needed. It depends which party wins. Either the liberal side or the conservative side. I have no hate against the government, left and right parties alike. I am smart, but not a gifted prodigy. I am rather be choosing The First Amendment. Me, and many young people. I am considered a part of Basic Rights. I am politically apathetic and apolitical as a whole. I'm not selfish, arrogant, or obsessed with judging others viewpoints. I am only a volunteer, and cooperative person. I view things as rose tinted, childish escapism, and simple minded opinions. That's how I view the world through my eyes. But for me, I am legal of age. I'm afraid to grow up. Because I can't be independent. I struggle with pressure. I am no minority. I'm still like a kid. A child to my parents and family alike. I like being treated as a pampered baby boy child. I am no political idealist, not a judge, not a soldier, and not a professional. I am just a volunteering and cooperative youngster adult. People may mention me, that I'm just a kid. Viewing the world through childish escapism and imagination. I am only basic rights, and have simplistic ideal views. That's my philosophy and point of view.
