What You Need to Know About Sensory Processing Disorder

Autism and ADHD - Talking about daily life organisation in this video. ADHD is often cooccurring with an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. I asked my friend Jess from How To ADHD to talk about organising daily life tasks with ADHD. Autism and ADHD comorbidity is very common with people on the autism spectrum. Children with autism may have issues in organising and organisation, this is all down to executive function. the ADHD Autism connection is such a strong one that this video is designed to help someone relate to some of the struggles. I personally have difficulties with with trying to stay organised and it is due to the issues autism presents. This impacts my daily life and my mental state. Mental health is also impacted due to bad organisation, and can lead to other issues like burn outs, meltdowns and panic attacks.

You need these autism apps to help you or someone you know who has an autism spectrum condition. As I am an apple iPad user, most of these apps I am showing will not be autism apps for android, instead will be based around autism apps for iPad. Lots of people want to find autism apps free of cost but sometimes the better ones are paid for or a subscription based app. So I have laid out 7 of the best autism apps I actually use and I can recommend to people to use to help with their condition. Note that not all of the autism apps will be relevant to everyone. Most of these are apps for autism communication, but I have included one or tow that I sue for organisation and life management. There are a few autism speech apps available on the market but I tried to go off ones that I would recommend that would have most benefit to a user. Most of these are communication apps for autism, apart from the mental health type apps, these are mainly for communication.

Aspergers in adults, are obsessive interests good or bad? Aspergers in adults is something that I find a lot of people miss as they never seem to consider Aspergers in adults, and only think of children when they are thinking about an autism spectrum disorder. I have done videos on how to spot aspergers in adults, like an aspergers in adults test but for this I wanted to talk more about obsessive interests as I know that this is a huge thing for people with autism and it is something I think is super interesting. I love the fact that people with asperger's have the ability to really focus in on a topic or genre and learn everything there is to know about that topic. And with aspergers in adults it is an amazing idea to make this focus on obsession a potential career pathway. I try to encourage anyone on the spectrum to follow their passion and obsession, as they can become an expert on that subject and maybe create a career out of it.

Autistic people, usually have issues with social and communication situations. This makes it difficult for them to find friends and keep relationships. The most interesting part about autistic people is the way in which they see the world, I made a podcast like an overview of how I see the world from an autistic person diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome. The autistic spectrum impacts autistic people differently on a large scale of their issues but there are some issues that all autistic people have in common. I try to go over in the video what issues impact me that also impact the daily lives of most autistic people. I hope you enjoy this video and leave a comment and thumbs up on the episode :).

Aspergers Symptoms - here are 7 you never knew! Super interesting list of autism traits. Whether it is Aspergers Symptoms female or male, these 7 un common traits are tell tale signs of an autism spectrum disorder. These 7 traits are also Aspergers Symptoms in adults and not just children or young people on the spectrum. As a person ages, their traits may differ slightly but usually they stay the same at the core of the issues. What is Aspergers Syndrome? It is a lifelong neurological condition that impacts the way in which a person interacts with the world around them. It is now referred to as Autism Spectrum Disorder as it is autism. What are the characteristics of a person with Aspergers? There are some very common signs, like lack of eye contact, issues with social situations and facial expressions. But there are a list of Asperger Symptoms that are not as common, that are listed here. What a lot of people forget is that Asperger syndrome in adulthood is just as impacting on a person's life as it is when they are children. This is why the Aspergers test is the same for everyone no matter their age. Science currently doesn't know what causes autism but they do know it is linked to genetics, and the genes of a person's ancestors. 1. Repetitive behaviour: People with Aspergers Syndrome will thrive off routine and repetitive patterns. These can be daily life routines, getting up having the same food for breakfast, sitting in the same spot, watching the same show at the same time etc. These are massive characteristics of Aspergers. 2. Tics: Tics are usually associated with tourettes syndrome but tics can also be found within people on the autism spectrum. Tics can range from physical jerks to sounds noises and grunts that a autistic person may do involuntary 3. Anti Social Behaviour: Not anti social in the criminal sense but anti social as in, the person will prefer to stay at home, research their favourite topic, or play video games that go out with friends and family. This may be a few reasons, social anxiety, social issues and communication issues all associated with autism, and these are all co-morbid conditions with an autist spectrum disorder. 4. Fussy Eating: Being picky at eating can be a use tell tail sign that a person is autistic. Fussy eating comes from a Sensory Processing Disorder or (SPD), where a person who is autistic may be under or over sensitive to certain textures, smells and temperatures of foods. Thus making them seem like they are fussy at eating, when in fact it is a sensory issues caused by SPD that is co-occurring within autism. 5. Depression: Depression is a huge co-occurring mental health issue that autistic people have a high risk of developing. Many autistic people will suffer from depression at some point in their life time. 6. Short Term Memory Issue: As an autistic person will have excellent long term memory, probably the best long term memory you will see in a person. Unfortunately their short term memory is not the same. People with Aspergers Syndrome tend to have really bad short term memory, like remembering to go to a certain place at a certain time in the future etc. 7. Stuttering: Although this isn't the majority of people on the autism spectrum, some people will have a stutter or a stammer, possibly when they are younger and it gets less and less as they grow older.
