interesting so by the end of the video you may actually be surprised coming
right up
hey what's good guys I'm Dan I have Asperger's ADHD OCD and dyslexia I make
weekly videos on autism and Asperger's so consider subscribing to learn more
about autism. In this video we're going to be covering some Asperger's symptoms
but are not so commonly known and that's super interesting hey guys what's going
on I'm so cold today it's freezing here will hence why I'm wearing this hoodie
um actually snowed yesterday and it doesn't normally snow here in Wales
especially not when we're living so close to the sea and I find that kind of
weird that actually snow but anyway regardless of that I hope you guys have a
great time wherever you guys are I'd love to know what the weather is like
because I find the weather's pretty crazy all over the world right now oh

link is in description below so you can get yourself your very own ASPIE WORLD
HAT at the beginning of every single video we read out or comment so this
week's comment is from 353 bandit and they said great update video
Dan still have an idea for a video for you how to talk to an autistic
person and that's a pretty dope idea if you guys would like to see a video on
how to communicate with autistic people from a neurotypical point of view please
give this video a big thumbs up and I will make that video also if you'd like
me to read out your comment make sure you hit that Bell icon on desktop and
mobile because I'll be picking from the first 30 commenters to pick one of those
through the beginning of every single video but please note I actually reply
to every single comment you guys post okay guys on the video so a few weeks
ago I did a video on 5 Asperger's symptoms sometimes with their hands or
their fingers or they rock back and forth and these are like more the common
ones that you may find if you googleing around or if you know maybe a
psychologist or a paediatrician who'll know exactly what you're talking about
but Asperger symptoms can very and and the Asperger's symptoms can be quite
different depending on who you speak to but there are some Asperger's symptoms
that's so unique and so uncommon that you may not have heard of all of them so
today we're gonna be covering five of these symptoms that you may not have
heard of just because it's an interesting concept and if you're
watching this channel to learn more about autism and Asperger's here are 5
Asperger's symptoms that you may see in somebody you know with Asperger syndrome or
autism okay guys so let's do it also I'd like to point out I really like
this minecraft touch how cool is this day ok still number one is a Palilalia
and Palilalia is when somebody repeats the words that they've spoken so for
instance I might be like hanging out with my girlfriend and I'll say
something like she might say how was your day I said yeah it's fine but then i'd be like
and you you kind of mimic the words under your breath almost not even
seeing them at all you kind of just move your mouth those words and this is a
very common symptom I'm not actually consciously aware that I'm doing this
when I do do it but this is actually a symptom it has an unusual name i I've
always just answered it as being like repeating words under your breath and a
lot of people comment on it I know that growing up my sister was like hey Dan
like why are you repeating the words that you say and do breath after you say
them and I'm like am I? and then like other people be like Dan you're repeating the
words under your breath and that's kind of crazy because I didn't even know I was
doing it but I've seen videos of me talking to people on an idea but I make
a conscious effort in these YouTube videos to not do because it helps with
the flow of the video now number two is one that is kind of comorbid but also in
Asperger's trait and it's actually tics and one of my tics are similar to how
Tourette's have tics where tourette's tactics we'll all say things involuntary but
this Asperger symptom in people with Asperger's syndrome is normally quite
relevant but you don't always see it and it'll be a tick where they may like jolt
their chest forward they may hit their body they may like grunt or they may cough in
a certain way they move their eyes some people I've known in the past were like
you know bend their necks to the side and these are all like these are called tics
and they're kind of almost like nervous impulses that you can't help but do
these are very common Asperger's symptoms that you will probably unaware
of and I find it quite fascinating because I'm actually way more caramel my
tics now but sometimes I do tick and the tics can vary from different things
since I was like I'll hit my chest and I like cough a little bit and sometimes I'll
like like shout out really weirdly and like
my face kind of stretches as though it weird I don't know I don't how to
explain it it's very do it's very very individual to the person but it'd be
cool if you guys let me know if that's something that you've encountered and
what types of tics you get and that would be super dope now this one again is another
comorbid condition with Asperger's syndrome and this Asperger symptom is
OCD now there is a fine difference between OCD and Asperger syndrome OCD
because OCD means that you have this overwhelming urge to do things in a
certain way or certain fashion or certain amount of times or you have to
touch something or do something and because then you'll have negative dark
thoughts and can it may be like people are gonna die or the world will explode
or something you know quite epic like that and you don't like to have to do
these things that I know people with OCD don't enjoy the routine but people with
Asperger's syndrome actually thrive from routine and thrive from organization and
structure and with that comes a form of OCD where they like to have things in
order and things in a certain place and I certainly know from my experience is
that I love having things organized when things out and organized it's like chaos
and I can't do much but I really do enjoy having things organized
especially in my office here and especially around my desk and in my desk
tidy I need everything in there perfectly well and this again is another
symptom of wanting things the exact same all the time
I don't like changing my room around that much and my girlfriend loves
changing the rooms and stuff around all the time we would examine it really bugs
me because I like to have things like certain place you know in a certain type
of way and I and I love that okay so number four is taking things literally
now and I got a funny story about this um this Asperger symptom is really
really fun to - this story that I'm about to tell you but it can be kind of
annoying to some people on it it can be difficult to overcome as well so people
with Asperger's syndrome may take things literally and by this if you said to
them like oh it's raining cats and dogs outside it's a possibility that the
person you said that to may actually believe it's raining cats and dogs I
know that the first time I heard that I actually thought it was raining cats and
dogs actually not just the first time I mean until I realized that they weren't
actually saying it's raining cats dogs I didn't understand what that meant I
didn't understand what that was was going on and he's an example of
people taking things literally so I retain in access to science course a few
years ago before I did my degree in chemistry and when I was doing the
access course there was a person on the course called Heather and she was like she's a
mother of a guy who has Asperger's syndrome as well just cool so he's to
hang out with Heather and one day that we were having lunch in the canteen and
she had finished a cup of tea put a banana and like crisp wrapper it inside
the you know the rubbish basically inside this cup and said to me hey Dan
can you go put this in the bin I said yeah okay cool so I threw the whole
thing in the bin cup went in the bin everything went in the bin and then she
was like you weren't supposed to throw the cup in a bin you were just supposed
to put the rubbish in the bin and put the cup on the side but she gave me
everything including the cup so I checked the whole thing in the bin and I
found this quite interesting because she said done you know it's obvious off the
cup we just got in the sink and I said yeah why don't we throw it in the bin
she goes well you know you have to kind of pick up on these things and again
people with Asperger syndrome have this relatability issue where they may not
get unspoken kind of rules and stuff so it's it's kind of you know if you're
gonna be talking somebody with Asperger's syndrome then make sure you
are very understanding of the literal process of their thinking so that you
don't kind of say something like that and then you end up throwing something
away which he didn't actually wanna throw away okay so number five this
one's an interesting one this Asperger's symptom is sometimes apparent because it
runs parallel with dyslexia so people with dyslexia have an issue with certain
motor skills and those motor skills could be hand writing as well as a bunch of
other things but with Asperger's syndrome these conditions do play a role
in in Asperger syndrome so this Asperger symptom is poor motor
skills for handwriting I know my handwriting is terrible it looks like a
spiders jumped in an ink tank and and walked across a page it just like this
scattering of lines and and letters that looked at you know disfigured and
morphed into each other and it's crazy and you know not I can't even understand
my own handwriting which is crazy so when I was in university doing my degree
I actually had a note-taker to actually take the notes and do those things for
me because I just couldn't do it but this is very common and a lot of people with
Asperger syndrome have this Asperger's symptom where they're bad reading and
writing and also bad their own handwriting and I find it
quite fun because in today's day and age handwriting is a kind of thing of the
past you don't really need it but I just find it fun because I don't expect you
to have this like super good handwriting you know when you're doing academia but
mine is terrible that's always good we're gonna not do just five we're gonna
do an extra one cuz you know you guys are my squad okay so this one is the
last one I talked about this is number six and number six is quite an
interesting one I got a personal story for this as well this Asperger's symptom
is quite interesting so people with Asperger's syndrome may be sensitive to
touch and you can see that sometimes that they'll talk about pressure and
stuff and so people Asperger syndrome don't like light touching or like soft
touching because that is really jumpy and overly sensitive so I know that like
I have hyper sensitivity with like the light sound and smells and also touch
because when my girlfriend like touches my leg if we're driving on account like
I jump on her my seat like "ahhh oh goh" and happens all time we've been together
like nine years and she'll touch my leg and I'll jump out of my skin and it's
crazy and one of the things is that it just makes me laugh every time for like
How do I like how do I not know that she was gonna do that you know she
always like just touching my leg you know or like touching me say hey you
okay or if I'm like sneezing and she'll like touch my back
to make sure I'm okay and I'm like "AHH" it's crazy but sensitive to touch is always is
always a fun thing to experience but I noticed that a lot of people kind of
like good pressure and I think weighted blankets help with this because I like
feeling like things tight against the oppression not like loose fit and stuff
so this is another Asperger's symptom which you may have not heard of before
that's all for this video guys and I'm pretty sure you have a bunch of things
to ask me so put it in the comment section below give this video a thumbs
up and let's roll the end screen
