Ever since I was diagnosed with autism, I have always been frustrated with the fact that people never understood what it was like for me living with autism, and I have never truly felt accepted as my true self. This is common for a lot of people on the spectrum. I have only really just thought to myself that I can't complain about these things and then not do anything about it - mainly because I never really thought one small person would make a difference to a whole community of people. However, that changes today! This is video number 2 in my new series all about Autistic traits and how they might present themselves in autistic people, and how we can better accommodate for those needs. I hope that by doing this it will help spread more awareness and understanding of autism to neurotypical people and help start making positive changes to a more inclusive and accepting future.

Please share this with anyone you feel would benefit from watching this, and let me know in the comments of this video what autistic traits or topics in general you'd like me to talk about next!

    Hi Holly. Thank you for an excellent video. You are very informative and to the point. You have an excellent manner of presentation and are able to keep people interested in what you have to say. Top marks!! I am also autistic.

    I've known i was autistic for a decade and a half. I'm just now learning what all that entails. Sad but true. I'm not very able to articulate my experience, but if I've heard someone explain the exact thing i experience, in the right words, i can then tell others what I'm experiencing. I'm grateful to every autistic creator for the words to tell others what's going on and to also better understand myself. The irony is that I'm hyperlexic. Ik all the words when i read or hear them, but can't pull them out together if i haven't heard it before. If that makes sense.

    Yes, smells. Nts spray "air freshener" in the room so I have to ask them to 'please don't spray that stink.'

    I don't want to be mean,but literally all of these things are in no way exclusively autistic. I'm very sensitive to noises, lights, etc and I'm not autistic. These kinds of videos make everyone believe they're autistic because it's almost becoming a trend now 🙄
