These signs of Aspergers Syndrome will help you identify autism in someone FAST:
1. Stimming.
This is a self stimulatory behaviour behaviour that is presented like patterns of flapping hands, rocking back and forth.
2. Strict Routine.
People with Aspergers syndrome, stick to a very rigid daily routine, and they love to stick to routines.
3. Repetitive Eating (small food selection).
Eating the same foods day in day out is a very common sign of Aspergers. Having a very small selection of foods that they enjoy is very common.
4. Echolalia.
Repeating words from overs, or from TV or from movies is a form of what is called echolalia.
5. Issues With Socialising.
Socialising is very difficult for people with Aspergers as the unspoken rules of social communication.
6. Sensory Sensitivity.
Hyper or Hypo sensitivity to sensory input is a huge sign of Aspergers syndrome.
7. Not Getting Jokes.
Taking things literally is a massive sign of Aspergers this makes it difficult for a person with Aspergers to identify when someone is telling a joke or being sarcastic.

ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
Signs of Aspergers in adults can present itself in more than one way. In fact when you are wanting to know what are the characteristics of Aspergers and what are the signs of autism, there are a huge host of these types of sings and traits.
i have tried to show some Aspergers symptoms of the most common ones associated with Aspergers syndrome so that you can maybe answer the questions like how do i know if i have autism or what are some common Aspergers traits.
Is there a difference in sings of Aspergers in toddlers compared to that of Aspergers in adults? There is not a massive difference but there are some notable changes as an adult with Aspergers will have created work arounds to some issues that autism presents in their life.
These common signs of Aspergers syndrome will help you identify all the main symptoms and traits so you can really identify if a person (or yourself) have an autism spectrum condition.

I DO NOT socialize for these types of reasons. I feel like I'm being rude, or in the direction to hurting ppl and when I do notice that I have it's like wiping the slate and ultimately I'm in the black. It's really hard to make friends let alone keep them. I feel like the guy working at the gas station is flirting or trying to pull her away from me and I get these constant thoughts of her in these inappropriate settings. When these dark thoughts pop up, even for a second I'm in the black. In that darkness if fond myself either trying to calm down or I lose myself in deep thought. I hate that I do these things and cannot control them. I feel absolutely alone choking on the irreparable damages I've caused

I had an issue with my university's HR department when they heard through the grape-vine that I had Asperger's. They called me in so I could explain why I lied about having an autistic disorder, on my employee profile. I told them the question asked if I wished to declare autism as a disability, and I answered no because I don't consider it a disability. As my parents told me....I'm different, not disabled.

@Sspratz Год назад

I probably would’ve checked on autism/disability, but you’re absolutely right, it’s not a disability, it’s a condition.

@@runcycleskixc you are right on. Unfortunately most people who work in HR are focused more on covering the company legally. It is so important to make an employee feel understood and comfortable but they miss that part. A good friend works in HR and she said this happens because HR people are scared of saying the wrong thing and constantly worry of making the company mad. They are scared of legally saying the wrong thing. There’s a lot of grey area. That was mean of that company to summon you and say you weren’t honest. What assholes that’s unnerving.

@Andy-1234 Год назад

@@runcycleskixc I wouldn’t mention it to a new employer. You could always inform them after you’re there for a while if you think it will benefit you. The employer can’t hold it against you either way. A guy at my company is on the spectrum and has ADD. He didnt tell anyone when he was hired. Another old guy we work with complained to the manager that the kid was unfocused and not serious about his job. It was not true and the manager said the kid gets his work done. The kid was upset obviously so he went to HR and told them he had ADD and spectrum disorder but he did good work and didn’t appreciate the old guy making comments about him. HR called the old guy in and told him not only is it mean,it’s illegal to harass another employee. So the kid brought up his personal stuff because it benefitted him to do so.

My son has just been diagnosed with Aspergers. It's such a relief to finally have answers for him. He is 9 and I have been fighting to have him looked at for this since he was 4. It took him starting to really struggle in the classroom at school, for the doctors and teachers to actually take me seriously. So frustrating, because I have always known, and nobody would listen. Now I can finally get him the resources he needs, and the tools I need to help him. Everyone talks about autism and how to cope, but there isn't much information out there as to how to effectively parent a child with these issues. I felt completely lost and alone, with no clue as to how to help him for so long. I'm praying that this diagnosis provides us both with what we need to help him thrive.

@callousHeart 4 года назад

I have been diagnosed with high functioning asperger's when I was 11, but the doctors, school, and psychologists werent in agreement of their versions of the diagnosis. I was placed in social therapy, which helped me how to "act" altruistic and how to understand social cues. It also helped me with the routine issue that aspies have, cuz I had strict schedules and hated being interrupted. Along with learning how to cope with the stress of changes in my routines, I also learned how to have alternative routines, instead of just the one single routine, for when common interruptions happen. Like lunch break at work, I always buy it at work. My main routine is get a turkey wrap, grab a red bull zero (or iced green tea, if I didnt need the caffeine) and a choco mousse (I like a sweet treat with lunch), then go sit at the back of the cafe where is dark. Sometimes they are out of one of the foods I get, or the line is too long, cutting into my precious 15mins of lunch, or my spot is taken. So I have alternatives. No turkey wrap? Shrimp nigiri. No red bull zero? monster zero. No sweet treat? Green apple. Spot taken? I have two other preferred spots. It's like a weird compromise in my head. We cant do main routine, and I know that fucking sucks, but here are acceptable other routines that we can still do. I'm still bjm hurt, but in not panicking or angry about it like when I was 12. Early therapy can help.

While this may not be quite as easy for others, I will intentionally disrupt an otherwise set schedule of mine as to break comfort with routines. Adds more of a dynamic to the day so it doesn’t feel like I’m falling into patterns. I was fortunate enough to have a brother that would not allow me to retreat into my shell and would force me into social interactions and different situations, a practice that has stuck and serves me well, so I’ll help others out like us in finding their own groove to prevent isolation and depression

@ThePokeShapeshifter 2 года назад

Good to see someone spreading the word, as people being able to recognize these things would make us Aspie's a bit easier to understand for others. On that point about routines, i've found that it's better to change incrementally, rather then all at once, since it allows you time to adjust to it. It also helps if you can come up with a mindset that allows for a bit of flexibility. Thinking of parts of your routine as "main quest" and "side quest" kinda works for me, though that could be because i've been a gamer nearly all of my life.

@zappedguy 3 года назад

I stumbled across your channel by accident after watching some videos on your fellow ausie's channel "Aspergers from the Inside". I was looking up autism because I have a grandson that I suspect is on the spectrum from his behavior issues. I was stunned when I was hearing stories of older people who have lived with Aspergers for many years that sounded like me when I was young. I never fit, felt like an alien, couldn't tolerate loud sudden noises like a balloon popping etc. "Still feel "different" and still don't like loud sudden noises, but I like certain music loud since it drowns out other sounds as well as emotions. I discovered this past month as an old man that I also had been living with Aspergers. I have had many years to compensate so I am highly functional. About 4 years ago, I finally could look someone in the eyes while talking to them. Like you mentioned in the video, I can talk forever about a favorite passion and can be oblivious to the poor listener. My stimming is usually jiggling my leg while sitting or when in a school classroom, I would constantly click my retractable ball pen or roll my pencil in my hand. Unlike some, I am very empathetic and can relate to nearly anyone. I think I learned that from the serious challenges I suffered when in my younger years. I have been highly anxious all my life, meeting new people, talking in a group, being in large crowds, driving in heavy traffic etc. I could go on forever. This discovery of ME has been eye opening and mind boggling but I now understand the why of all the challenges I suffered especially in my youth. I am really big on root cause analysis, so knowing why I was/am so f' d up has brought me a sense of peace.

Now my daughter has a 9-yr old son who has most of the traits you have explained, but she does not want a diagnosis.

i've been showing these symptoms my whole life, and yet i've never been able to get a diagnosis because mother dearest said i don't have anything wrong with me.... i'm 18 now and i'm going to go try and get some kind of diagnosis, both as a "i told you" and so that i could potentially get help for some things im struggling with. all the help i've been given may work for neurotypical kids, but i'm not neurotypical

Very interesting video. It's really hard because sometimes I feel so different to other people, and listening to these things is like a revelation. I've spent years developing coping mechanisms and desperately trying to be more like other people and understand social conventions, plus my job calls for a lot of communication, sometimes challenging people on poor performance, which I find completely draining. I really appreciate the effort you have put into making this video, it's nice to know im not alone.

@emj3677 Год назад

This totally helps me. I was diagnosed with ADHD years ago. I do a lot of the signs. I am laughing because all this time I just thought I was the only one who is like this. Especially taking everything literally. I have been confused about this stuff my whole life, like knowing when someone is kidding me. Thank you for these videos. 😊

sometimes when speaking to people i don’t know when they’re joking so I don’t know if i should react or not. sometimes i do understand that it’s a joke but i don’t react at all and the other person’s says something like “uGH it’s a JOKE” and get super angry. this seems to happen everyday. nice video!

Wow another amazing video. I repeat lines and phrases from movies and TV sometimes all day. One of my major issues is eating noises. I am latterly screaming inside. After 50 years of living with it I usually can cope. My partner of 32 years knows this about me and is always apologizing but I tell him its not you its me. Thank goodness for noise cancelling head phones! It also took me years to understand sarcasm. The phone game Dots is a real life saver if I need to center myself😀

@MoMo-mo8bg Год назад

Thank you for your video. My son is 24 now but I’ve always questioned whether he had Asperger’s (always had issues with clothes, how they fit)……well since I discovered what it was. Thankful for the information, this information didn’t exist years ago and helps with understanding behaviors and working through it. My son is working through his anxiety, didn’t like counseling, back in college, online but it helps. As a mom it’s hard because of the challenge with sensory (no hugs), seeing social issues and taking things literally…..plus sarcasm is a coping mechanism for me. He is also very hard on himself, self critical. I just subscribed so I can share this with him and continue to learn myself. I have learned so much about video games because he loves talking about it. It’s a way to connect and keep the communication bridge open. Just so thankful for this, better late than never. Luck and love to all that struggle or have someone who does. ❤

So I've recently been diagnosed with ADHD and I've been wondering about Aspergers and talking to my therapist about it. Thanks for the pointers. I'm hypersensitive to smell, I cannot be around raw onions at all. The repetitive thing with food and repeating things are really familiar. Social situations and humor escape me sometimes. But I've worked on the humor, I have a dark sense of one. Great vid! I'll have to check the others out.

Thank you very much for this video, Dan! I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome in 2004. I am 47 years old now. Things would be very different for me had I been diagnosed at a much earlier age. I was 34 when I was diagnosed. It does get me down quite a bit because I have Asperger's Syndrome. My high school years were VERY rough because a LOT of people did not understand me and I still feel this way to this very day. It is a good thing that Asperger's is FINALLY out in the forefront and hopefully people will understand this is a serious condition that people, myself included go through on a daily basis.

I greatly appreciate your videos on this topic. For a long time in my life I didn’t know what was “wrong” with me or what was “different” about me. I went to see a psychologist about eval and treatment for ADHD and along with that issue she stated to me she felt I was pretty “Aspie”. I didn’t know much about it so I had to do my homework. Much of the symptoms hit me on the head textbook as a young child but maybe not too dysfunctional for school. The symptoms seem a little more subtle as an adult. Symptoms are hit and miss for me. Obsessive Interests is a big one. I can look people in the eyes though and I have a pretty good sense of humor along with capability of being very sarcastic. I just worry about an official diagnosis of Asperger’s (ASD) and possible consequences of that label as an adult in relation to my professional life. I’m too afraid to reveal an issue like that especially to women I am dating because I would be looked at differently and even “Problematic”. I feel you about these symptoms towards a diagnosis though and appreciate you sharing what you know because it is helpful for me understanding me.

@pennywhistle9060 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for explaining this. I find myself in so much of what you are saying. I do so many of the stimming coping mechanisms. I love spinners as well. Losing myself in the motion feels like giving my brain a rest. Being in social situations requires so much work to keep up. I have developed the habit of nodding and just letting the conversation flow on and hopefully find explanations further on. You are dead on with lighting. I actually taped a plastic garbage bag over a florescent light over my desk at work. So much more of what you say helps me makes sense of what I do. It's a bit late to get diagnosed (I'm almost 70) but it brings such comfort in helping me understand why I am the way I am. Thank you. You are helping so many people who don't understand themselves.

I don't have a diagnosis and I have a pretty strong aversion to self diagnosis but the more research I do on Aspergers, the more sure I get that I am on the spectrum. 90% of this video 100% applies to me.

@dajnor 10 месяцев назад

Honestly, I think it's because a lot of the symptoms or indicators are unique and can be masked. You really get an ah ha feeling hearing someone explain something you do, especially when you can't put it into words yourself to tell folks around you.

@AnneAndersonFoxiepaws Год назад

Dan you're a star, you helped me so much in getting my diagnosis, as it is I wonder how anyone thought of me as other than being on the spectrum because a lot of traits are so pronounced in me. Of course that's probably why the psychiatrist who got me diagnosed noticed it in the first place. There's so many thing that could have been different in my life if they had known it wasn't just boys. (I was born in 1958). I have never had the filter thing about how long to talk etc. I think its my most apparent trait. The whole talking too long and talking over everyone is not fun because in retrospect, I see it and I don't like knowing it but the trait is there and it's difficult when I am absorbed in a topic. I can't bear loud noises, lout staccato noises particularly and textures of food, more so than tastes can really upset me. Everything you say pertains to me in a greater or lesser way. I think females adapt their behaviour, without knowing the whys of it, they can train themselves to act in a more NT way so it can remain hidden, but when you watch a video like this, it really shows how many traits I have. I think scoring 47 out of the 50 on the Autism 50 really says a lot. I think the sarcasm one depends very much on your friend group when you're young. I don't think I understand sarcasm naturally but having a big circle of gay friends who love wordplay really helped me to get around this. I never have the quick retort but at least I have an understanding of it that many never get.

@steveneardley7541 10 месяцев назад

Not knowing when to stop talking and talking over other people are my most obvious Aspie traits. And I only became aware of it fairly recently. I come from an argumentative East coast family, so I just thought it was the way I was brought up. But it really isn't. And it's a problem. I've started to impose rather artificial limits on how long I talk. It's better than nothing, since whatever cues people give off are too subtle for me to notice.

Realized later in life when I was the boss that I could just fire rude people. Made everything way better for all.

Thanks for your videos. I had my diagnosis done and my psychiatrist stated I was borderline Asperger with general anxiety disorder caused by ptsd from childhood trauma.

Plus all the coping strategies are helping too. Keep up the great work!

@user-lz6ko8wj5u Год назад

May I ask whether you’re in the uk and how you went about getting a diagnosis?

@Gryphyn3 Год назад

@@user-lz6ko8wj5u I'm in Canada. And a diagnosis is done by a phyciatrist. They determine if you have asperbergers by the number of traits you display. In Canada they require you display 30 or more traits. I showed 29. Which I why i got the borderline asperbergers diagnosis. One of the most common traits shared by all asperbergers people is something called mind blindness. There is a test you can do online to find out if you have it. It's basically your brain can't figure out expressions on faces etc, like thinking someone is smiling when they are sneering for example. Or are disinterested when they are sad. There are over 300 different traits someone with asperbergers can have, and so it takes a shrink to determine which ones you display.

@patrickroberts1993 Год назад

My boy just went in for his first therapy appointment yesterday as he's been having some issues at school and the therapist mentioned aspergers syndrome to me as a possibility and the more I learn about it, the more similarities I see. He's always been sensitive to loud sounds; public toilets flushing especially. He does this thing with his eyes where they flutter and roll back in his head when he's uncomfortable and also makes this quiet rumbling noise with his throat. He almost never makes eye contact with strangers but definitely will with me or his other family members. He's HYPER sensitive to misunderstandings or mistakes he feels he's made. They'll cause him to shut down completely and bolt out of the room. He's extremely hard on himself and sets these impossible standards for how quickly he feels he should learn new things. He's a very very picky eater. He has maybe 7 or 8 things total that he will eat. He's also crazy intelligent. The kid effectively taught himself to read at around age 3 by linking the subtitles on the TV with the audio dialog. His reading skills were rated at grade 6 level when he was in 2nd grade, he corrects my spelling sometimes and can type way faster than I can using words I didn't learn until I was in my mid to late teens. (Hes 8). Not only that but he writes these genuinely funny, elaborate stories with adult level humor (not dirty but advanced). He's super sharp witted with exceptional communication skills provided he's comfortable with the person he's conversing with. He's warm and generous, empathetic and kind, brilliant and talented. There's absolutely nothing he couldn't accomplish if he just cut himself a break. I'm so grateful that I might finally have a road map for how to help him. I've felt so powerless in that regard. Thank you for posting this!

I’m a composer/ musician. I was diagnosed this year at age 53. We always thought I was a ‘quirky’ artist/eccentric type. I response w/ most of what you brought up in the video- but I get Jokes and sarcasm and facial expressions very well. The diagnosis has helped me a lot - primarily with important relationships - but I now also more patience / empathy for myself. Excited to keep learning and I bettering myself. And I wouldn’t trade this to be NT. Who wants to be like everyone else?

Hello! Thank you for your videos. The information that you give helps me out alot. My daughter is 2. My husband and I have noticed some things about her that she does. The things are hand and feet flapping, stimming, bouncing, spinning. We have noticed that she has issues with socialization with other children. I could go on and on. Lol! Here soon, she will diagnosed. We spoke to a nurse practitioner and she put in a referral for her. Once again, thank you so much. Looking forward to more videos. 😁

@eeddingt 5 лет назад

Excellent list. My son was diagnosed almost 10 years ago and has exhibited all of these except echolalia. The first thing we noticed years before other symptoms was involuntary stimming - until adolescence he would rapidly move his hands and fingers when mentally stimulated. Understanding these traits and tendencies is helpful. What I also like to point out is that we all exhibit traits and tendencies to various degrees and autism is a label for a collection of some common ones. Tolerance and understanding is important in enabling all of us to reach our full potential. Nice videos, thx!

Hi, and thanks for all those videos! I love learning more about ASD, as I've been diagnosed with Asperger's recently (I'm a young adult... and a woman, which doesn't help although I clearly had a lot of "typical" Asperger's traits when I was a child/teenager). I was wondering: is there around here other people on the spectrum that, instead of having a strict routine, don't, like, at all? It's like the absence of a routine is my own routine, but it makes me curious =)

I came across your video because I am researching things that I'm concerned about with my foster son. He is 3 years old and expresses several of the things you listed. He's not old enough to express or experience some of those things, but he definitely exhibits the repetitive behavior and the repetitive eating. He's mildly obsessed with his favorite foods and wants to have them every day. And until I came across your video, I didn't know that was an aspect to Asperger's. I've been reading lots of articles and doing some amateur research about it as we wait for his appointment to be evaluated by an Autism specialist. He has some of the sensory issues, and definitely has meltdowns when something doesn't seem right to him. He has extreme attention to detail and an incredible memory. He's not quite old enough to get terribly focused on any particular subject. For now, he just wants to watch the same movie over and over, every single day. We have the same conversations as we drive down the road. He asks the same questions over and over. He also, is extremely self-centered, more than the typical 3-year-old, and talks over people at his own high volume all the time. He also jumps all the time. He doesn't really do any hand flapping, but he jumps all the time, and often times on his tiptoes. He eats the same thing for breakfast and doesn't like it when I won't let him have the same thing for dinner every day, and he begins asking me about his dinner the moment I pick him up from daycare. I appreciate your insight and your explanations of the different issues and what it's like from your own perspective. That is so incredibly helpful. I have a friend whose son is autistic, and when I was discussing my concerns with her, she is the one who mentioned Asperger's. And so began my search and found your video. Thanks so much! I look forward to watching more of your videos!

Thanks for making these videos! I am confident I have Asperger's (my AQ score is 41 out of 50) but as a 26 year-old female, diagnosis is so intimidating and I feel alone. I chew to stim. I get extremely anxious if anything in my life changes or routine is altered. Everyone thinks I'm a pretentious jerk because I wear sunglasses inside and insult everyone. I avoid the perfume section of department stores. The smell and brightness make me nauseous and everyone wants to talk to me to convince me to buy makeup. I avoid going out in general, especially during the day, due to agoraphobia and sensory processing issues, but my service dog is helping me gain my freedom. Clothes that include spandex are painful and I don't like shoes or socks, but also hate the feeling of walking barefoot! Life is a battle.

Since you love reading these comments haha So I looked up Aspergers Syndrome not because I suspect I have it, (even though I have different mental disorders I’ve been diagnosed with before) but because a guest from overseas is staying with my parents for the next year, married to my cousins daughter. And there was a few things I wanted to look up because he was diagnosed in Iran for ASD but when I looked that up it didn’t seem quite right so I looked up Aspergers Syndrome and this seems much more relatable to his symptoms and I really really want to be supportive to the best of my abilities but I need to understand more so I’m doing some research

This list is very helpful. I grew up with an Aspie sibling and am really good at picking out folks on the spectrum from their behaviors. I couldn't put a finger on how I knew, but I just knew, mostly from lifelong exposure. I work in a special education classroom now, and one of the things we do to help with the "routine" issue is when we know that days are coming that are going to have a different routine, we talk about it for weeks ahead of time so it's not a surprise, and we make it sound like it's going to be an exciting change.

Love your videos. Have a question for you, from one aspie to another...So I'm paying attention to my mind more, and what my triggers are and such. Do you ever find yourself (for whatever reason or other), just...for lack of better words, being sucked into the negativity of everything going on? Would that be considered a meltdown? I guess after 7 years of knowing I'm an Aspie and knowing basically how the syndrome works...never really paid attention as to what constitutes a meltdown, and your last video on meltdowns really spoke to me as I'd really like to start trying to avoid them. Sometimes though I just find myself not melting down per se, but just being consumed by negativity...if that makes any sense. Any insight you've got is much appreciated, or even if you want to work that into a new video that'd be cool too. Thanks in advance!
