Step into the shoes of Ashley Smith: an Asperger syndrome perspective 

Apologies for not knowing about these comments, I'm always happy to answer any questions in the near future :)

I have a hard time believing that most don't notice stares, looks, temperature changes, or wind. There's a decent chance i'm autistic myself, but even so, i never thought noticing that stuff was abnormal. It makes walking around alone without anything to redirect my attention an absolute nightmare though, so who knows.

Most incredible human I've ever met ❤️

As an Aspie myself. This is amazing. 💯 Thank you for creating this. Hits the nail on the head.

I relate to this video a lot! I hear smell and see so much… like him. And often I come back home exhausted but still next time I do go outside. The good thing is that I love listening to the birds singing and there are a lot of birds in the park. Bad thing is that I have to wear earplugs to be able to play with my little daughter without getting dizzy after few minutes. I had no idea I perceive the world differently, I had no Idea I could be an aspie till very recently. I thought it’s “normal” to catch on everything, even a rustle of a plastic bag that is being carried on the other side of a busy street… names on the doorbells… car plates, all pieces of other information. Someone passing zebra, talking, bike coming from afar, tram taking turn with awful squeak on the rails. I’m always the first one to catch the sound and get interested by that, I’m the one who hears the buzzz of a bulb. Great video, I love it!

Aspie here. I deal with this too. Even at home where I can actually control things to a degree. I love to knit but I can't have the tv on when I do so or else I can't concentrate on what I'm working on and make mistakes that I have to undo and start again. If I have just gone through a shopping trip especially for groceries since that takes the longest, all that sensory stimulation overload will have an argument with my mom end with near yelling on my part, overly extreme frustration on my part, and sometimes leaves me near tears. Because I just can't deal with the argument rationally during or after such a sensory overload...

I can totally relate with it. Very well described.

He'd be excellent as an investigator, analyst or maybe something for ASIO (no joke).

I hate hate hate going to the supermarket! It‘s so very loud there. I get bombarded with nonstop loud music and even louder advertisements. Mostly I get really upset and aggressive internally. Spending time at the grocery‘s cost me my energy for the whole day.

My biggest pick up is lights and loud noises.

he smiles back? he enjoys going to supermarket? what a lucky man

Point is ppl with this condition get stressed with normal experiences .... Because most people notice everything... And some just have there heads up in the clouds

Nicely done video!!

Did... I hear the Wilhelm scream at 2:35?

Pretty accurate. Aspie here.

Ok well. I have this apparently. I know them feels Ashley.

I love this

The Internet is full of suprises. I know a lot of Aspie-Documentations, but this Documentation shows how I feel too, although it´s on the other side of the Planet. This Camera-Ego-Perspective makes it easy to imagine to be an Aspie . This shows more than 1000 words! It would be more suprising if the Diagnosis-Testing sessions by my Psychiatrist finals into an non-Aspie-Disgnosis.

Relatable (autistic here)

2:37 wilhelm scream? 😂

I thought this is normal for people

So he's a regular guy then?

uh this is just sensory integration disorder, a small part of aspbergers, which is high functioning asd

dont label people
