As usual, it's pretty upsetting to see mental health focusing on children and "young people". There are a huge amount of people who slipped under the radar of mental health help before it was available to young people. Many were told they could go on a children’s waiting list, but by the time they could see someone they would not be children, but could not go on the adult’s waiting list because they aren’t adults yet. There are the people who need representation. There are the people who have turned to drugs and those who need so much help

Good question. That’s a reason why the system is stupid. Autism isn’t even really a “disorder” in my opinion, it’s just a very common and evolutionarily beneficial neurotype and it’s inherent to your brain and the way you process stuff. Autistic people don’t inherently have bad mental health and have mental breakdowns a lot and are nonverbal, it’s just that most autistics go through a lot of trauma and abuse in society and it affects each of us differently. No diagnoses based on a biased neurotypical asking kids questions can always detect if you have the autist neurotype. I know it’s hard for some people to reject the system and accept the truth, but consider it. Also I understand if you need a diagnoses for personal validation and/or systemic support and stuff, but I still think the system for diagnosing people’s neurotypes is stupid and you’re valid af whether you’re diagnosed or not. ✌️

My daughter went for an assessment recently, but all of the activities they wanted her to play with were sensory seeking, and she is sensory avoidant. She was also far too aware that she was being watched, and she behaved differently because it was a stranger asking her to do things.. They didn't seem to take any of this into account, despite seeing how hyper the sensory toys made her, and said they didn't have enough evidence to diagnose her yet. Now we have to wait another couple of months at least for them to do another assessment at her school without her being made aware of their presence. We've already been waiting 4 years for this appointment! Feels like it's never ending and I'll be gutted if they say they can't diagnose her when they've already said girls are much better at masking.

My parents are kinda ableist so I worry that they'll purposefully make it seem like I'm making things up. Edit: My therapist is helping me get a diagnosis so hopefully that'll help! Edit 2: I had the final bit of the first part today, also I'm getting assessed for ADHD at the same time. Anyway, I've been officially moved to the second (and final) stage of the assessment which should be in a few months. Edit 3: The first part of the final stage is in 4 days and the final part ever is on the 29th september! I'm so excited and so nervous. Edit 4: I had the 3rd part out of 4 today (first part of final stage) but I only talked to the psychiatrist for 10-15mins. He told me a story and asked if I could guess what they thought. Edit 5: I had the final part like 2 weeks ago-ish. It was over an hour and the psychologist asked me lots of questions and got me to different activities. I still have to wait for my feedback meeting to find out if I'm actually getting diagnosed with anything. That's on the 18th October. Edit 6: I've just been told that I get the initial result tomorrow, and then the details in the feedback meeting. I'm so nervous. Edit 7: I haven't had the feedback meeting yet but... I'M OFFICIALLY DIAGNOSED AS AUTISTIC Edit 8: I've had the feedback meeting and they said that they'd reccommend me going to an OT and an educational psychologist. They said we'd have to go down a different route for an ADHD diagnosis though, because my school results were good, which is kinda ableist. The most important part of it though, is that I'm now officially diagnosed and my school is aware. Edit 9: I’ve now been officially diagnosed with ADHD aswell as of like 2 weeks ago and I start treatment soon. I’m finding it kinda hard to accept but I’m getting there. My parents are less ableist now because they’ve learnt lots during this, plus my dad got diagnosed with ADHD. Good luck to everyone else trying to get a diagnosis!

She said because he has good eye contact and back-and-forth she cannot make a diagnosis of autism and that it's up to us to be extremely firm in dealing with him (including yelling at him as she did many times I guess).

I can really see how different the process is (and I'm also probably older than the kid in the video, I'm turning 15 in two weeks.). However, it is much easier to talk to the evaluator than my own therapist. When I go to regular therapy, sometimes I can't talk because I can't figure out how to communicate my thoughts verbally. What I've gone through so far has mostly been a few questions to see if I have autistic traits, and I did a bunch of math and language questions. I don't know what's going to happen today.

Good luck, I hope you get to be diagnosed. My son just finished doing all the assessments in the U.S. though the online schooling. He was having too much trouble with concentration and trying to figure out his words and put his thoughts into words for English as well as trouble with algebra. He will be 17 in September, and was labeled with autistic tendencies at 18 months old. We had a zoom meeting with the school psychologist, an intervention specialist and some of his teachers. They said it seems like Asperger’s, but that isn’t a separate diagnosis anymore, plus autism. But his iq test was very high in some areas at 130 and lower on others. I pushed him to get tested as I could tell somethings he was struggling with and he wanted to give up and drop out of school. I know a diagnosis won’t change anything, but didn’t want him to not know and find out a lot later in life. We have another meeting on Thursday to get an IEP set up and hopefully he will go along with whatever can help him. Good luck to all of you and I hope everyone gets the diagnosis to at least know.

when my primary school told my parents to get me tested so they could kick me out, i played it out so well that the examiner found no clue at all. nowadays i hide it so well i almost forgot how i used to be.

i hate how its all about kids and young people aka the teachers at school picking it up first and recommending that the parents get their child tested because as an adult (i'm 20) i remember being at school and no one noticed anything but im still really behind compared to people my age so i think it is

Just finding out more since I'm supposed to be getting assessed soon.

I once watched this because I was genuinely interested. Now I’m watching because I’m preparing for one :)

I have just been referred for an ASD assessment by my therapist and I am hoping to have a diagnosis by this time next year.

i’m gonna have one of these soon so i’m glad that their is videos about this to make me less nervous😊

Had to learn this information, for an onboarding process. You learn a lot more about the stereotypes of neurotypical compared to atypical minds

My care nurse cathy who helps my mom and dad with questions about my health mentioned she thinks my sensory issues, problems with eating, and issue with doing anything im not interested in might mean i should get tested for autism, and i dont know that much about it so ive been watching videos to prepare incase it happens and i get overwhelmed. My dad says i dont show the major symptoms of it, but i show more minor symptoms like my problem with growing up mentally (im 14 but still cant get out of the state of being like 7 or 6), my issue with obsessing over mermaids (ive been obsessed with them for months and its insanely diffucult to do anything unrelated to them, which gets very overwhelming), and my issue with acting myself when meeting new people (like when i meet someone it goes like this; i observe them and their behaviors ALOT, i try not to speak too much, and then later on i start acting like them to match their energy, and when i get comfortable enough i eventually start acting myself again, but sometimes it resets if i get uncomfortable.) i wonder if its the reason i have issues talking too, idk, but im trying to learn about it. Does anyone know what usually happens during assessments? Im scared cuz i see alot of the videos the person questions you alot about things D:

Girls with autism often tend to mask their autistic traits rather than not from a very young age to fit into society's standards of how they should act whereas boys tend not to mask it as the society's standards of a boy is vastly different to a girls. That could be a reason as to why you tend to conceal your autistic traits and it doesn't mean your brother is 'worse' than you. It just means that you have developed an extremely unhealthy coping mechanism to mask your traits and that often leaves you at high risk of autistic burnout, depression, anxiety, e.t.c If your not a girl (or not biologically of a female sex) than know that you can still be masking your autism its just alot more common in girls. Im not sure what the situation is now since you posted this a year ago but if youve not been assesed yet just know that there are many like you who go through the same thing and slip through the cracks and not to lose hope of getting the care and support you need. If you are an adult, i know it might be difficult and a long process (depending on where you live) but it would definitly be worth it to go to a doctor and seek a diagnosis since i promise you its better late than never and just know you will have to have quite alot of evidence and thorough evaluations and assesments and they may also need to interview your parents and family members. If you are a child (under 18) then i suggest if you havent already to tell your parent/s or guardian/s your worries and attempt to get them on board to get you assesed. If they dont listen or agree then you could go to the staff member at your education facility responsible for this kind of stuff and tell them your worries. If none of that works, then dont lose hope and know that you will have a chance to be diagnosed as soon as u turn 18 😊 Hope all is well and things get better for you - a 16 yr old girl

Took an assignment almost half a month ago. Just got the results back and they said I don’t have autism or adhd. I genuinely feel like they didn’t ask enough questions or even be around me enough (the person I saw hardly talked to me besides telling me what to do). I’m so frustrated that it took all that time and that’s what I was told.

@@Krow_Kid it’s supposed to take a couple of hours. It’s just the fact that me and my brothers test was so different despite having the same person

Whoever chose this background music and chopped it up that way in a video meant for autistic people was nothing short of a cruel prankster lol

I really want a diagnosis but I'm too worried to ask my parents. :(

nah bro i had to fill out like 5 forms with 3 ppl bc i wanted to die & i show signs of autism, then my therapist left me 💀💀

My mother after calling her autistic child a the r slur: 😊 I’m such a amazing mother!

Mine was exactly like this

I'm from the uk and i am an adult how do i get a autism test like this? Thank you

Thanks!

What I remember from when I got tested was the guy tall had brown hair was holding a clipboard have glasses was wearing a plad shirt and jeans there were 18 tiles on the ceiling and 8 lights

Thanks this is helpful

whats the song in the background?

I’m going to get assessed soon and the main thing I got from this is that the UK has “Where’s Wally?” books and the USA has “Where’s Waldo?”

i’m very nervous for my screening, i have selective mutism. what if i can’t answer questions:(

I’ve been diagnosed with autism I reallyyyyy struggle with depression and sensory needs due to the autism and also with the bit when we get sperated from the parent we had ours during covid so me and my mum played snap and they noticed me going red not saying snap and fidgeting and zoning out

I am getting assessed tomorrow and I realized that I spent my entire childhood growing up confused because my mom dismissed my unnormal behaviour as normal but I would get teased and bullied for this “normal behaviour” so growing up I didn’t know what was considered normal and unnormal so now I’m terrified of how my mom will describe me and even how I describe myself

What's it's like for us in the US???

I want to get diagnosed but im so scared I literally do not wanna talk to somebody like that :(

my mum just said that i was just being checked up on, not being tested for asd

Went to get my autism diagnosed, turned out I just had a metal spike in my head.

I wish I had watched this video before being diagnosed so I’d know what not to do to come off as normal 😞

dont worry nothing can go wrong you wil stil be the same person aftwrwards regardless if you have autism or not. there is nothing wrong with outismt and ya dont need to cure it (also because there is not cure) dint be scared because either way you are gonna be fine and if it is positive see it as a good thing since you then know yourself a little better.

I’ve gotten this kind of test before a few years ago and they said I didn’t have autism, but I hope to be tested again soon because I don’t believe it was conducted properly

Hey, I'm pretty sure I am somewhere on the autism spectrum and my mum says that I'm autistic but I would like to get diagnosed. However, when I bring up diagnosis she says that she doesn't want me to be labeled etc which is annoying (and also makes no sense as she labelled me as autistic). Any advice?

@Mike Allen Autism is NOT a disease. It CANNOT be cured. I don't care if you gave him some herbal tea or spices. It isn't gonna cure him. Autism is a different way you're born. That's like saying you can give a person blind at birth some herbs and they can see again. That's BS.

If your in school talk to them

I think I’m autistic cause my “mum” said I had some of the symptoms to a nurse in Seaton and I was like what are the symptoms in girls!Anyway it was jus5 yo check my feet caus3 I have a weird habbit of doing something to my feet that Idk what’s called!

What about for adults???

What if I'm in college? Do they just contact them instead of the school?

Is this for adults too

Is tgis tge same for 18months old babies ?? And if not where can i go to get my child tested. I have sked my gp but he keeps telling me i should check my cholds red book for more information and i simply just dont know where to find it i also feel let down by the go too because ive been asking from when my child was 7months. However there are times i see my child do the norm things other infants will do but when my child gets tired i see a few of the signs for early autism and it makes me feel worried because as a first time mum i do not know what to do pertaining to anything of such.

If the person was non speaking what you will do then ??

Can you do this without parents

I had one of these and I got a diagnosis of Autism

how often are the people who get tested neurotypical?

How do I go to m parents about an autism assessment?

My sister told me my mom was going to make me go through an autism assessment and thanks for posting this so I know what to expect. I do have a question though. Are the questions simple yes/no questions or the ones where you give your own lengthy answers?

I really want to get tested but my mom won’t let me

i hope i can get an appointment soon. i am pretty sure i have high functioning autism.

My son just had a simple questionaire they said he isnt autistic can it be done that way im convinced hes autistic

I can not wait I am coming soon

i hope my assesment goes well,

I want to take an autism test tbh, because I feel like I have and have checked out for many “symptoms” for autism, I already know I have adhd so could be that, but I’m honestly rlly scared to tell my parents. They’d just laugh at me. They already didn’t tell me that I have adhd for a year, then now they make jokes about it every time I zone out or can’t focus. Like what?!

is this what it would be like for a teenager?

I’m having my autism assessment next week and I’m trying to find vids about it and this is the closest I can find, but I’m doing mine in the USA bc that’s where I live. But I’m getting 2 hours on one day and 2 hours on another day, and then getting my results

@Nikki Bentley Is My Angel do you know about DSM-V or forthcoming ICD-11 in the future (I know that right now ICD-10 is current)? It put together Asperger's and all Autism diagnosis into one Autism Spectrum Disorder. So yes, Asperger's is on the autism spectrum. I'm not sure if all Europe has the same criterias but according ICD-10 you'd be still diagnosed with Asperger's (while in USA you can get ASD diagnosis) but in about 2 years diagnosis is going to change.

What happens if it's a toddler if two years?

Hey, can you please start that again, my friend's been waiting 6 years (and has tried to kill himself) can't get help from school because his ADHD hasn't been confirmed.

This didn't happen when I went cahms.they won't even entertain my son, the school and myself are at our wits end. Now my gp has to get involved, but apparently the health association has got to do this not my gp as gp doesn't not give out referrals anymore., the Dr is always busy early morning so I can't get through to arrange to speak to a cliniction for a consultation, by the time I got through today they were far to busy. And the reception staff have passed my number to health association, my son is with the NHS minds because of his anxiety which actually, his anxiety is been brought on by whatever behaviour problem he has and no one is listening the school have referred him ten times from reception right up to junior school and cahms keep pushing him to the minds clinics

As an adult (70M) I have self-referred to Berkshire Talking Therapies to get some help with hyperempathy and phonephobia. An autism diagnosis would not be a surprise!

I’m getting an assessment for learning disability so I’m watching videos like this

1:26 - I assume thats the autism screening aka the first step on getting evaluated
