7 Aspergers In Childhood signs (YOU need to KNOW!)

Рет қаралды 100,039

Күн бұрын

Aspergers in childhood is the easiest way to spot the condition. what are the characteristics of a person with aspergers? These are the most common.
1. Lining up toys in a straight line
2. Difficulty keeping / making friends
3. Issues with textures with foods
4. Issues with deviating from routine
5. Zoning out
6. Stimming (hand flapping)
7. Obsessing Interest
8. Could have an interesting accent / vocabulary (copied off TV echolalia)
Aspergers which is now called Autism Spectrum Disorder or (ASD) is an autism spectrum condition that allows for lower support needs for the autistic individual.
There are numerous aspergers test and one I did recently here: ( • AUTISM TEST: How to TE... ) to see if you or your child may be on the spectrum.
It is easier to see aspergers in teenage males that it is to see aspergers in teenage girl. This is because autism presents itself slightly differently in females that it does in males.
But for school or education life aspergers in college can be difficult for young adolescents and a person having aspergers in the classroom can find the entire school environment challenging.
Aspergers syndrome in children is diagnosable roughly around the age of 3 years old, then some aspergers treatment can be supported through a mental health board.
There is no separate childhood asperger syndrome test to that of testing for asperger’s in adults.
These specific autism traits in young people are the best way to indicate early on if the child has an autism spectrum condition.
The earlier you can spot signs of autism the earlier you can implement understanding and help / support to make their life the best quality you can.

I had no idea back then but it's blindingly obvious now! I had piles of different colours of duplo/Lego and was really into designing houses and hotels with them at 6yrs old. I always played with the same handful of boys in primary school - avoided girls and all their drama. I speak with an Australian accent thanks to watching Neighbours every day as a kid. I spent all my spare time at the library (reading) or walking over the park (swings soothe me) and fields. My passion is being eco friendly, and extremely politically (protest marches) active the last 4years. I started seeking (classic Asperger's style) ASD diagnosis almost 2 years ago, before I turned 30. I have an almost 3yr old boy who behaves very similarly to me. It's so hard being a spectrum mum that I don't intend to have any more kids when hubby and I initially intended to have 2 or 3 (there's twin genes in both our families). I don't know whether to start my boy's diagnosis journey now or wait til he's a couple of years older. Any ideas people?

Loved the bonus #8. I had my kinder teacher call in my parents for conference because my accent did not match the area I was from. I watched a lot to public broadcasting and had developed an Northern America accent while always living in the Southern US. I still have to be careful when around people, because my speech patterns and dialects will change to match who I am conversing with even at 50.

@shannonsmith924 5 жыл бұрын

I’m very curious about the whole zoning out thing. Being hyper focused on something you almost like turn off your hearing to your surroundings it’s like ultra sound. Autism is a super power. But with every super power people have misunderstandings about. Example of my expirence zoning is reading books in a noisy classroom. Minute I’m super focused on the book, myhearing turns off to my surroundings. I don’t hear what anyone says until I turn back my focus to them. It’s really strange to think of it from a different point of view. Best way to explain it is like having the ability to turn off hearing at will.

At 28 my mom passed wile going threw her thing I discovered a medical file on me. I knew I had ADD & dyslexia but wile going threw the file It also said I had autism. In shock I spiraled. So many questions the big one was why didn’t my mom tell me. Why hide it, she was gone so these questions went unanswered. I got myself tested as an adult & was dx with Asperger‘s. It changed my life for the better I don’t feel like an alien in my own body anymore. Now my son who’s 2 1/2 shows definite signs and traits. Your channel has helped me to understand and accept myself as well as given me the tools to recognize my sons need for extra help. So thank you very much. The information you have taught me in a way that I can easily comprehend helped me love myself again and be proud of who I am and feel like like a better mom to my son.

It’s not so bad to have this Condition if you know how to work it. It’s hard when your black and I have no black friends because they can’t wrap their heads around it and I feel sorry for any of their kids who have the condition because I know how they might treat them. But I like that I think differently from others and act differently because it means I can do differently and bring new things to the plate that others can not think of. So go my people out there go and rock this world. You got it going on.

When you are explaing the list I'm like wow I do this this this this and this. It really surprised me . I don't consider myself having problems in many social situations but in some social situations I do have big issues . I have been treated separately for each issue . I am not saying I have Asperger's Syndrome but I do have many of the symptoms you mentioned . When I was working as an R.N . In a hospital I would noticed certain things about my self that others did not have an issue with . Like talking with doctors . I did not have issues with my patient's but I was meticulous about things. Actually most things.

I’ve never been to other countries outside of the US. But yet sometimes after watching Doctor who. I’d easily pick up a British accent. Perfect too. I loved it too because I obsessed over Doctor who. So it’s funny cause it’s like switched around for me.

That's when it became clear I had been struggling with school for a long time and it was too late to do anything about it. With all the recent research into women with asperger's, it's very clear I've been misdiagnosed and been on the spectrum since birth.

@Mp Autism can not be cured, but I know a few parents of autistic children who insist that certain diets can help their severe autistic children. Although, those claims can be used for a lot of things kids go through. Studies show that there are conditions that are caused by diet, although I am not sure if these children have these conditions on top of their autism or if they were misdiagnosed as autistic. It is possible that creating a set schedule did help your child as well. I am worried about your "respond to orders and act right" comment. Applied to any child it seems wrong. I think I can understand what you mean by it, but it has a chilling undertone to it. You may want to reword it in the future. It makes it sound like you abuse your child and take advantage of them.

But as we share it, i just do things naturally for him to feel good and he doesnt get to have a meltdown almost never. I always try to regulate his food, noises, textures, clothing but because i know how he feels about all of those things bc i feel them too. I know its not funny and for neurotypical parents it must be annoying or hard to learn to navegate all this information. The last one about the accent is spot on lol great video

Thank you SOOOOO much for this video and all of them. I’ve always suspected my son was on the spectrum… but very high functioning… now that he’s 8, it’s all becoming more Parents, and now the school is getting involved I’m gonna start testing him to see if he’s on the spectrum. After watching this video there’s not a doubt in my mind that he has Asperger’s. Thank you so much again

I forgot all about lining up my toys when I was kid. I did it all the time. It drove me nuts when my brother would take one to play with and I would have to readjust everything. I still have this thing about lining things up on shelves. Everything has to be in a certain order. When I was in my thirties my mother actually convinced me to see a hearing specialist because she was convinced I was going deaf. Turns out I had and have near perfect hearing but I just like to zone out a lot.

My son (22 years old) was diagnosed with Asperger less than 1 year ago. Since that moment I am learning so much about this. And it seems that my ex-husband is an Aspie too. It all makes sense now. Sometimes that's a good thing (regarding my son) and sometimes it's a sad thing (remembering struggeling during my marriage). Your videos help to understand what Asperger is about. My son used to line up his toy cars, created his own fantasy world while playing and has/had almost no friends, hates places like concerts with a lot of people and noises..

I wish that I had seen this video when my 20 year old son was a toddler. He is definitely on the spectrum. He never played with toys, he lined them up. Lines and lines of Hot Wheels toys and he knew which one belonged where. His special interest is automobiles. It always has been and now he is in school for automotive. He had issues with food textures and sounds. He does not notice certain social things such as peer pressure (this is totally his super power in my opinion. To be a teen and not care what other teens think of you? Nice!). He had a speech delay as well. He was diagnosed with ADHD but I really think that they missed something important!

Hi, I find your videos super helpful as I’m trying to understand ASD a bit more. I’m just being assessed for ADHD but I know that some of my traits go further than that and I started looking into ASD. I’m so glad you have mentioned accents in this video as I’ve heard of echolalia before but nobody has exactly described what I tend to do - I tend to adapt my accent/tone of voice depending on who I am speaking to…so I speak differently with different people. I’ve always found it so weird and also embarrassing and I always wonder if people notice. When I notice it while having a conversation I have to refocus to speak my own way, but I have to do this consciously otherwise I’d continue copying their tone without even trying. I’ve never fully understood it but now I think it must be falling into the same group.

As a kid (and to this day) I obsessed over animals. I only watched animal planet as a kid. I exhibited all of these, and a lot of them still today but one was really bad as a kid. I didn't communicate properly as a kid, I communicated in animal noises. I would hiss at other kids and bite them, teachers feared me, kids feared me, I felt so alone. I didn't start making actual friends until high school, and they're almost all two years younger than me. But my primary hyper fixation since I was a kid was with dogs. I know basically every single dog breed & I can break down mixed dogs into every breed it makes up. I get down to the muscle formation, eye shape, coat colouring, coat texture, body shape, head shape, bone formation, ears, tails & etc. Anytime I go to a dog park my mood just instantly gets happy. I still would choose to spend time dogs than humans. With knowing all this now, it frustrated me a lot that I had to fight so long for my diagnosis. Also, a friend of mine has a British accent, nobody immigrated to Canada from Britain so his parents were really confused but he was later diagnosed with ASD. It's actually really cool.

Oh my gosh, echolalia! When i was growing up, when i would say words with certain consonant sounds at the end of the last word, I couldn't stop saying that sound ie 'cat t t t t t'. I do repeat greetings often. I do repeat things but not all the time. Food texture, yes. I hate mushy cold cereal. I hate slimy textures. I hate velvet and apricot and peach fuzz (especially in my mouth 😝. Feels like a mouth full of cotton swabs!). I hate apple skin touching my teeth and then chewing on it (it's like nails on a chalkboard). I can't tolerate intense bitter flavours and i only enjoy mildly bitter in deserts ie. coffee with cream and sugar and chocolate. I always lined up my cars and coin money. I guess my way of lining other things up isn't noticable. I don't sound like I am from the state or town I was born and raised. Always been told that I sound like a northerner. When I try to sound southern, it sounds really odd and my son does the same odd "southern" imitation I do 😂 when trying to imitate a southern drawl!

I had a huge issue with food as a child (still do, to a degree, but it's not as severe). My parents took me me countless "experts"... none of which even considered aspergers/autism, apparently. I also chewed on my hair obsessively, to the point where my parents would threaten to cut it. And then I "moved on" to chewing on my nails instead. I had a huge interest in animals, read about them, watched any nature/animal related documentaries I could catch, etc. My parents, and other adults, were (apparently) also baffled at my vocabulary. My mother read a lot to me, and apparently I picked up words and phrases effortlessly and used them in conversation. Apparently some health professionals told my mum that "this kid shouldn't have that advanced of a vocabulary at this age". As movies are a special interest now, I still catch myself picking up phrases and quoting them regularly. Having my pre-assessment conversation next week! It's fascinating to see how so many of my "quirks" make sense, at last.

Creative as a kid… yep! I remember when I was a small kid, I’d used to pretend I was a director and my toys were actors and props in the movie. Super fast brain -> -> speech issue develops. So naturally I had speech therapy (which I resisted strongly) and occupational therapy. Yet no one suspected autism - most likely cuz I didn’t act like Sheldon Cooper and cuz girls weren’t considered for autism. I also enjoyed art in school and so the teacher helped me to get good grades by advising me to experiment with different textures and to record what worked for me and what didn’t. Got an A for that. Loved literature as well and was fairly good at maths through school. In fact my maths grades only dropped down when I moved to the UK 3 months into my GCSEs where the math problems were wrapped in weird worded situations, so I needed to decode the message and then extract the math equation before I could solve the problem - ended up needing extra time for that nonsense lol 😂 however, by the time it clicked for me it was already too late to go up to the highest level, capping my grades at B 🤦🏻‍♀️ Stimming: well when I was 10 years old I had to have plastic surgery to remove a bubble I had on my lip, from sucking on it so often. After researching (aka obsessing) about autism in recent months and reviewing my own behaviours I’ve been able to start spotting my stimms. They’ve been very hidden: grinding teeth, wrapping my toes over each other in the socks, and clenching my feet. They seem to happen when I’m stressed or uncomfortable. If it weren’t for KZfaq channels like yours, I would never have realised I could be on the spectrum, thank you!

Not as bad as it was when he was younger, which happened a ton. Doesn’t do this too much anymore. I’d say not more so than a mainstream child. 6. He doesn’t really do the flapping, but he’ll do other things like fidgeting around it jumping around. 7. Yes but I’d say he’s getting better at this as well, he’s developing more interests. 8. My son is HUGE on echolalia. He has such a good memory. He does have a unique tone sometimes, and lately he’s been saying stuff in a funny way. It’s cute.
