11 Mar 2021

Description

DISCLAIMER: I am no medical doctor, I'm just your normal Jo Bloggs who's sharing her lived experiences with Autism that was called Aspergers. If you see any warning signs/symptoms that may be related to any of the topics I share as of in the future, please seek a second opinion or treatment with a  medical professional. What I share with you in how I go about managing my autism will vary from person to person and that what may work for me, may not work for you and what will work for you may not work for me and vice versa. So, please be considerate while I give you all my advice and/or tips. If you have ever read the Diagnostic Manual for various brain-related things including Autism, Aspergers Syndrome, PDD NOS, and many others underneath the Autism Spectrum Disorders, the DSM 5, – which I wouldn’t really recommend unless you need to. It’s not exactly light reading and for the faint-hearted as a lot of research is done for educators, medical professionals, and many others. Anyway one of the criteria for a diagnosis of Autism is in the statement to what I am about to share here right now. There are cuter qualifying statements that are related to it and this statement that has been stated is this:  *Persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts…  I talk about the diagnostics based around a statement along with what it entails with me as an Aspie for one to how it works and the importance on this along with many more thoughts to this. *ABOUT ME* Hello, I'm Aspie Answers from NZ.I have Aspergers Syndrome that is now clinically known in the DSM5 Manual of Diagnostics as Autism.  I make videos as an advocate on autism and mental health from the perspective of an autistic adult.
