Struggling with Autism 

Sometimes you need to say stuff even if may sound negative. It is okay to rant about what you think and how you feel. The problem with that is people are too busy focused on the good things and not the bad and ignore them completely. People know the bad things in the world and do not speak on it. They just hold their emotions in and do not express them when something bad happens. It is the old saying" be positive" and smile all the time grinning like the Joker from Batman. Some people wish only good things happen and do not expect the worst things to come. It is about be honest what you feel and be realistic.

Hello Micky, you come across to me as being a smart,grounded,and articulate guy judging by your video. I bet a lot of neurotypicals would think you didn't get a bad deal in life. Having said that it is obviously a bit of a shock to find out we are Autistic and gets a bit of time and lots of research on the subject to get comfortable in our skin. Also you are lucky to have been diagnosed early and at an age when there is so much info available online. Am 51 and only realised and diagnosed recently. I spent a good chunk of my life not knowing and just feeling like an outcast. The day I was diagnosed is like a second birth to me. I can now ,through the autism community learn to know myself, how I function and adjust. Knowing that I was born Autistic empowers me to create a user's manual which I wasn't born with. Looking forward to more videos from you. Your journey through life is unique and helpful for those who will find out they are Autistic.All our voices matter.

I repeat myself a lot too. It’s due to my A.D.D and also due to having Asperger’s (well, self-diagnosed) but I clarified on a previous video that I’m almost 100% sure I’m an Aspie. Anyway, don’t feel bad if you repeat yourself it’s okay. And don’t feel bad if you want to rant. And I think a lot of people on the Autism spectrum have a lot of negative self talk (that’s what a therapist of mine said once atleast) and I don’t think we do it to be deliberately negative.. I think we’re just trying to speak our chaotic thoughts out-loud cause I don’t know about you, but just talking helps me a ton. It’s something I tend to do too much of and not everyone can handle it. But people who are like me understand. And I feel like I understand you on such a deep level. I would love to be friends with you. ♥️ Also, I’m sure you’re really funny... a lot of my friends on the spectrum are hilarious as well as myself so I would definitely enjoy your comedic content. ♥️

I like your dog. Do you like dogs, Michelangelo?

Your dog is beautiful. I had a German Shepard before. They are supposed to be very smart but she was not smart but sweet and silly. There are Aspie comedians so I am interested if you do some funny videos. I think Aspies are the most honest people and sometimes that works against them in the social world.
