Omg we could be twins and then some.....😳 now I super like you and at my age I would be friends with you in real 3D life if that makes sense. I am in Canada and I’ll be dead before I get anywhere on a waiting list close to being tested where I live specifically. But you have made me understand so much. Plus, both my sons have ASD. Tourette’s in my youngest and they both asre diagnosed AdHD and I was diagnosed at age 4 with ADHD . I’m vibrating with info and confusion(NOT ANYTHING YOU DID WRONG STEPHANIE)💜 I’m just frustrated , for me. And for my boys. My girls don’t have these issues, other than depression and anxiety. My youngest daughter took her life 2.75 yrs ago. @ age 19. ♥️ you’re awesome Stephanie. I really adore you and everything I’ve learned from you, even though 1/2 my kids are older than yours and I think I have at least a decade on you lol(sorry I have a hard time remembering birthdates and ages.(ALL NUMBERS IN GENERAL. Oh Lord, the psoriasis things, gluten, lactose, skin picking, stiming(ironically THERES a certain stim that I found my own Mum used to do before she passed, that I found my eldest son does and I do too!! And I never put it all together until 2 yrs ago) Ok nuff said for now. Much love&prayers girl! 💜⭐️🙏 I’m so blessed for finding your channel a couple years ago. You may have no idea how much you’ve done for me through the videos and info you show and speak out on. Oh My Word!; The Executive functioning! 😫 I’m the most disorganized , confused person I know other than my sons, which I have a feeling you understand how there can be things we do and don’t do that cause hardships in our marriages (or is it just me????). ok done. I need to hush. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Thank you darlin.💜 P.s. I really pray you could possibly reply and let me know if I’m just over-reacting?!?! I’m sick in my heart that I’ve been labeled (wrong in my very intelligent hubby) severely mentally ill to the point of being abused y a handful of “professionals” in the psychiatric community in my city. Oh yeah, I’ve never held a job for more than 6-9 months, sometimes as short as 3 days. Feels awful and causes me depression you bet it does.💔 Omg you mentioned the foot rub and hand rubbing!!!!!! Ok overstimulated, self allowed as I was a bit apprehensive to watch but glad I did. Maybe I should (after covid is eradicated, fly down to Colorado and get an assessment, cuz like I said, where I live, I’m never going to be taken seriously. And things have become so bad over the past couple yrs and a bit that I just don’t want to exist it causes me so much upset. Ok now I’m done. I hope if anyone reads this they don’t take it in a terrible way. Again Steph~you ARE SO COURAGEOUS!!!!!!!💜⭐️💜 And a FABULOUS Feircely Loving and Caring Mum to your kids! They’re all BLESSED TO HAVE YOU IN THEIR LIVES! God has his plan together and it’s so clear to see from this side looking in! 💜 I hope the rest of your weekend is as wonderful as it can possibly be!!💜

It’s been a truly awful and stressful week and I feel I’m over-reacting and like should just go to bed. I’ll hopefully get help someday to be able to do these extra things. But for now, I hope it was a good session and if it isn’t time yet, I hope it is a good session when it starts! 💜

I just got diagnosed a few months ago and related to so much of this!!! The swinging, being bad at hair and makeup, special interests about movies and TV shows, interrupting people and not knowing what to say during conversations, backing out of social interactions and not making eye contact. Thanks so much for sharing all of this, I'm glad more women like us are getting diagnosed and understanding ourselves better. It's tough to walk that line of doing what's socially acceptable and doing what's best for you. Sending you love on this journey!

Dear Stephanie-I just want to say a Big Thank You 😊 Your honesty and vulnerability during this video took an awful lot of courage and I am sorry - NOT for the fact you’re autistic BUT for all the hard situations you’ve found yourself in and all the lessons you have had to and still are learning - I cannot begin to imagine how exhausting life has been and can be at times. I am so glad you are now able to realise the beauty of a true friendship and the give and take it will teach you along the way - the beauty of this friendship with Emily however is one that will benefit not just you but also Emily ,Will ,Lonny not to mention all the wonderful lessons the children will and are already learning (safely)- I am so happy and excited for you all - Thank you so so much once again for this very insightful video it’s very much appreciated- love from Southampton England xxx

This is so helpful, thank you so so much for going through everything you had to to be able to share this! It’s literally almost everything I’ve experienced my whole life, feeling so odd and out of place and misunderstood while also misunderstanding others and how to interact, the things that make me shut down, the way I understand most jokes but rarely ever think they’re actually funny while nobody else thinks I’m funny a lot of the time....I could go on and on. You put into words so many of my own (shared) experiences, and this video was also super helpful because it reminded me about a lot of things from my childhood that I always wondered about, very similar experiences to yours, actually, and it’s helpful to hear someone else break those kinds of experiences down because it helps me find what parts of my experiences actually were/meant in terms of my (awaiting diagnosis) ASD. Just, thank you so so much. I feel less crazy, less alone. I though everyone else struggled with this stuff but somehow had the answer key and I was the only “failure” who didn’t, but later learned that that’s not true but nonetheless didn’t stop struggling. So thanks for being someone like me who shares what our lives are like! (I’ve said thank you a lot, lol!)💕

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your opening up to your community is helping. I am looking into getting assessed, and into getting help with my mental health because of you. I have also always struggled and the more I meet or connect with other adult women with autism the more it connects with things I have struggled with. My biggest struggle currently being mentally exhausted after work because I have to mask so much to be "normal" and not get overwhelmed with constant sound, and change. Also I am currently having a really hard time with certain adult life functioning too, cause the anxiety of dealing with it is so overwhelming. So again thank you for sharing and inspiring to start my journey to better understand myself.

Thank you for your honesty! I already have an ADHD diagnosis, sort of(?), but am pretty sure that I am on the spectrum as well. The thing, I think, that is stopping me is that I once mentioned it to a counselor, 7-9 years ago, I was seeing and they told me "I wouldn't be surprised if you did have it but you have learned coping strategies so I can't diagnosis you." I was so confused because even if you do have autism and have coping strategies in place, you still have autism. It is still a part of you.

Thank you for sharing ❤️ I work with children with autism I’m a pediatric OT and I love learning more from adults diagnosed because you can truly explain it from your side. I love working with this population - some things that I always wonder about are some of the visual perceptual differences like you said you struggle to see something with a busy background And it’s actually a struggle for eye contact like a physical struggle - it helps me explain better to parents because once the parent understands better I feel it truly helps them feel closer to their child which of course we always want ❤️

Reading the room and seeing how everyone else is acting is one of them, as is not knowing how friendships work. I've been accused of "coming in hot and heavy". Basically, if someone was nice to me I just assumed they wanted to be besties. I've lost a TON of friendships/acquaintances over that. To the point that I really don't try anymore.

1:55 THANK YOU ❤❤❤ Thank you so much for filming this video, it's highly relatable for me. I live in Illinois and insurance doesn't cover autism evaluation for adults here, but after my psych team worked with me for a couple of years they've confirmed that I meet all the criteria for diagnosis. I just haven't had the testing, so I don't qualify for any type of support services or disability benefits or things that could potentially help me. I've really been struggling the past few years. My mom used to help me with everything and she died almost 4 years ago now, and I don't have any other family so I'm completely on my own. I really wish I knew you in real life, most people don't understand me very well.

Wow, you described so much of me!! 🤔 I've only ever been diagnosed with ADD. I will say that I do love going out and such and don't enjoy being alone. But, I do not have many friends to hang with and that I'm okay with because I feel like having too many friends is too much work for someone with social issues.

Thank you so much for everything you shared! I am getting ready to have my autism evaluation (hopefully in July, in about 2 months), at age 59. I related so much to a lot of the traits you shared. I am looking forward to finally getting diagnosed, even though I know it will be emotional. It will put all the pieces together for me, and validate the struggles I have had my whole life.

Thank you so much for this video. Stephanie you are a freaking warrior and I respect you so much for putting this video out. One of my nieces was diagnosed as autistic about 2 years ago. So watching these seriously help to see what is possible for her life. My daughter is 12 years old. She has adhd/add and Auditory Processing Disorder. She has never been tested to see if she is on the spectrum but its definitely something I have often thought about. So truly.. thank you for this video.

I am so proud of you. I know this had to be difficult to share. I love how at the end you talk about getting to a place where you love yourself for who you are. That is a great message! My family used to give me a hard time because I twirl my hair. I had teachers tell me I was going to be bald because of it. I once had someone tell me it made me look insecure so I tried sooo hard to stop. The only time I was able to stop it compleltly in public was when I was in Air Force basic traning. Otherwise there are so many times that I do it without realizing it. It actually helps me process what I'm thinking about. I'm so over people making me feel bad about something that helps me. I've gotten to a place in my life if they aren't ok with it, I don't really care. It's not about them! I can't wait to see the stemming video. I was just talking to somoeone the other day that a school evaluator told me my son wasn't Autistic because he didn't stem. She just didn't see how he stems because it wasn't allowed in school.

so much of this video is me!!! the sensory stuff! and the doing things because society says but not understanding why. not knowing why is so frustrating! so, so many things to relate too. I've thought for years that I might be on the spectrum but everyone I've told, admitedly not very many people, have told me they don't think I am. But I'm sure I am. also the super emotional and when someone yells at you the automatic response is to cry yeeessss!! and food textures!!! and friendships have always been hard and somewhat of a mystery to me at times. relating to people in general really. just so much here!! thank you for making this video!!

The swinging makes a lot of sense! They say swinging in one of the best ways to get vestibular input. And 15 minutes of vestibular input can regulate you for up to 8 hours.

My husband and I are looking at places to rent and there's a place with a swing set in a large backyard - fur children only, want a yard for them to play in. He looked at me and said "if we get this place, I'll come home to you outside... on the swing... going "weeeee"." (It was said without judgment too. Which is beautiful.) Now, thinking about it more, I swung a lot as a kid/teenager and was ticked when the schools I went to didn't have swings. (Lived in one city with swings at almost every school but went to school in another city, mom taught there, that took out all their swings due to injuries and lawsuits.) Someone also mentioned on here having an imaginary friend and I did... well past an acceptable age. Her name was Cookie, she looked like me but had an insane desire to eat cookies. SO many things resonate with me and I know it's why I'm good with helping others on the spectrum and others with disabilities. I understand and relate it to help them. I want a swing inside my house. And a slide.....

No wonder why i loveee lovee swings. Even got stuck in a baby one as i was growing up because i thought it was still acceptable for me to swing in that one.. my favorite memory is at school with this circular swings like tired swings but not tires and you could spin super fast, you could go around in BIG circles while spinning.
