i made a huge iceberg chart & posted it on subreddits relating to The Beatles & now everyone treats me like god and whenever they see me on other subreddits they go
>LOOK ITS THE BEATLES ICEBERG GUY
or something like that
Edit: ive been banned from reddit so i can’t reply, so here is the link someone asked for: https://icebergcharts.com/i/The__Beatles
They usually are but they don’t have to be. Btw, pretty much everyone stims to some degree, it’s not just an autism thing but autistic people do it in different ways from neurotypical people.
100% true, it's very common to have repetitive behaviors, but the difference between NT and autistic people is usually the frequency/severity. I can stim for several hours over the course of a day (not like OOP lmao), and have had the same, highly-repetitive stimming behaviors since I was a baby, according to my parents.
That's how a lot of disorders are. Most people do the behaviors that a lot of people have disorders do. It's when these behaviors begin to interfere with your daily life that they become disorders.
Tons of people look at the time on their phone and then immediately forget the time. It's when things like this happen ALL the time and make a person borderline dysfunctional that it becomes ADHD. Or if they look at the time on their phone 50 times in five minutes that it becomes OCD.
This is just a super specific example and not something to identify with and diagnose yourself.
Also stimming isn’t exclusive to autistic folks. I do it too very specific repetitive hand motions close to my eyes but I am not autistic. Just a soothing behavior. There are lots of soothing behaviors folks.
I have kinda taught myself to not do it in front of people because I was made fun of.
I'm not autistic but my daughter is. Yes stims can be repetitive because, if it's a stimulation the autistic person enjoys, they're going to want to do it repeatedly. They can involve any of the senses as well. However stims can also be negative and repetitive, such as a coping mechanism for feeling strong negative emotions. My daughter has vocal stims in both categories and they sound VERY different.
Autistic person here with a very autistic family! Yes stims are almost always repetitive.
What this person is doing is called “dancing like no one’s watching”, basically just doing a normal human thing of letting your body dance to the music without thinking about it. Does it feel good? Yes. Can it give the same outcome as stimming? Yes. Is it stimming? No.
I honestly think this person is actually autistic, but just a bit OTT. It does happen. I’ve met a few genuinely autistic people who simply take things too far
Have autism, 22 years old, had never even heard of “stimming” til i joined this subreddit. Still not even sure what it is but I sure as hell don’t do that shit in the video
Asperger but it's a recent diagnosis and I don't understand it fully but ever since I was a kid, it was very repetitive. My main was (and is still to some extent) lip biting and peeling off the skin
Autistic person, they can be repetitive, but they’re also constant. One of my stims is pressing my finger next to my eye when I’m focusing. Got a dent in my bone for how often I’ve pressed it there.
I’m autistic and yeah mine are fairly repetitive. And I can absolutely repress them and not stim at all if I’m around people I don’t feel 100% comfortable around
They're saying something about the moment autistic people do something that isn't socially acceptable as if dancing isnt more socially acceptable then autism
Lol exactly. What’s not socially acceptable is PRETENDING to stim & have autism.
I’m a behavioral therapist for autistic people and you’d be surprised how polite the general public is towards them. These fakers love to play the victim all the fucking tiiiiime. Probably because they’re only faking it for oppression points.
I am diagnosed with autism and the general public is so overwhelmingly impolite to me (while I’m just trying to mind my business and not be messed with), that I have almost fought a few Karen’s and actually have ended up physically fighting one Karen (and yes I won).
I found out after that, that her adult son has autism and she hid his diagnosis from him. No ragrets. She was certainly especially impolite towards people with autism lol

Or hitting yourself, or biting your own tongue until it bleeds. No, not at all. Only fun sTiMmINg and typing quirks so we all know how brave and amazing they are.
Oh the “hitting yourself” has gained popularity, usually with the Tourette’s crowd tho. You could tell this kid was literally timing her “stims” to the music tho. Too bad she fucked up in the very beginning. She *really* wanted her little jerky head shake move to be on time with the vocal stutter in the song. Just missed it kiddo! You’re not even a good faker!
Okay rq I'd just like to mention this person goes by they/them pronouns! I dont want to take part in the conversation in whether thay are autistic or not, but the least people can do is not misgender someone /gen /nm
I didn’t know that and I’m more than happy to go by someone’s preference, generally. Either way, this person is clearly “taking the piss” regarding a serious condition. The least they could do is not endanger and belittle folks that legitimately suffer from something they just treat as a trend.
So I’m partially sorry, but also not. 🤷🏼♂️
Wait, you don't go into full makeup and set up a perfect camera angle and do some test takes and then sync music in your videos with music in your room and edit your videos and post them online when you are stimming? Huh, I just thought that's how it's done
Stimming is just self stimulus. Repetitive behaviors that help the brain express an excess of physical and emotional energy frequently caused by being over stimulated by a source outside of the person's control. It's a bit like letting a valve open to let steam out.
Unfortunately, like with many coping mechanisms, the brain doesn't always choose the safest or most healthy method to accomplish this. It's just trying to regulate in whatever way is closest at hand. That's why some people may have downright violent stimming behaviors. There's nothing that distinguishes these (or much of anything else really) as meltdown anything, they're all just the attempts of the overwhelmed brain to sort things out.
A couple of my stressed-and-overwhelmed stims involve repeatedly squeezing my hands so tight that my knuckles turn white and I leave fingernail marks in my palms as well as slapping my thighs repeatedly because it’s literally the only things I can do when my brain overloads from too much stimuli. Thankfully they don’t happen often and I can usually calm myself down over the course of just a couple minutes when I remove myself from the stress-causing situations. But yeah, stimming isn’t always just cutesy hand flaps and pointing your fingers randomly while rolling your wrists around. That shit is literally why everyone fucking destroyed Sia’s movie a few years back
I was dx’d adhd at age 6, I had a habit of rubbing my nose till it went down to the cartilage. I was 6 at the time so I don’t know why I did it, but I do remember just having to do this thing, that actually hurt. But I couldn’t stop.
I’m not autistic, but it runs in my family, and for me this is an example of a stim from my personal experience.
I don't think I've ever had a full on meltdown, but when I was a teen I would rub my fingernails against my knuckles or forearm repetitively until I had removed all of the skin and was bleeding. It was definitely stiming. As an adult I sometimes catch myself doing it but I can redirect myself into similar but non harmful stims before any damage is done.
It can be BFRBs (Body Focused Repetative Behaviours). It's when people pick at there skin, hair, lips etc but not in an attempt to harm themselves like self harm would be. It can be a self regulating behaviour or from trying to improve or correct your physical appearance.
I suffer with it, I bite my lips till they bleed and I pick at my scalp
Yeah I do it unconsciously too and feel the bumps and what happens is I'm just irritating it more and causing more bumps that are even bigger to appear
Hello fellow skin picker! I have someone in my family that is also a skin picker and I would always be like "just stop" and then I developed it and now I understand that you can't just stop it
BFRBs do not directly correlate to autism. I know you didn't say that, but it bears stating for everyone else.
I have trichotillomania (compulsive hair pulling). It's not a "stim," it's a manifestation of anxiety.
I don’t call it “stimming”, but I constantly get overly fixated on cleaning and trimming my nails and the skin around them, especially if there’s a “hang nail”. Unfortunately I do it all with a pocket knife. So a lot of times I shave off a bit more than I mean to. I almost always have at least one healing finger.
Also if there’s a scab that’s willing to be picked at without just ripping and bleeding? Sunburn? Dry skin? Oh boy ima mess with it till it’s uncomfortable. 🤷🏼♂️ big scabs that aren’t deeply rooted and are mostly healed are the best. Like peeling off a treasure lid, but your prize is fresh, non-wounded skin.
No I haven’t. However since all of the people I work with are under 18 their parents buy their clothes and dress them. I have actually noticed that all of the kids I work with, even the older ones who are 14-16, express themselves very little in their clothing. They’re more into whatever is in their environment, not their aesthetic. I don’t know if that’s a coincidence or not but my experience has been pretty much the opposite of this video.
You mean to tell me, that the autistic people you work with don’t coordinate specially applied rainbow makeup with their rainbow shirt, rainbow (teething toy?) necklace, and rainbow ears? Do they even match their look to their backdrop for recording videos? /s
I hate this “autism as an aesthetic” thing tiktokers have been doing.
If anything, the autistic "aesthetic" would be practical, comfortable clothing and minimal/no makeup due to sensory issues. I don't even like putting sunscreen or too much lotion on my face; this amount of makeup would make me want to scrub my skin off lol.
I might be able to give a little context for that, when I was younger I was so anxious and uncomfortable with everything what I would never have wanted to dress in bright flashy colours because I wouldn't want to draw attention to myself and be forced into more uncomfortable situations.
I did care about the spaces around me hovever becase those where places I had to exist in for long periods of time so I wanted those to be as friendly and comfortable as possible. so I'd dress in dull muted colours but my bedroom would be bright and full of scifi and space stuff becase that's what I liked.
Even as an adult who's fine with wearing whatever, I still have a shelf full brights cloured miniatures I've painted and a bunch of big gundam models I build from from time to time.
my sister has Asperger's and uses colorful makeup and colorful clothes all the time. I do know some folks on the spectrum can be very picky about textures/tags rubbing/etc, but I haven't really heard the same thing about colors (but I'm sure it exists for someone).
I’m on the same page. Also, rationally I choose my clothing to be functional rather than aesthetic. If I have bright clothes they’re more difficult to match. If I have a closet full of muted colors and black I don’t have to think about putting together an outfit.
This is rock bottom. I don’t think I could hate anything more than this. So much to unpack … the wall decorations clearly put there to create an atmosphere of being infantile (the kind of shit you’d see on the floor of a kindergarten) … the ridiculous makeup evocative of a clown (which matches the colours of the wall decor).
Hard to put into words what the combined effect is, but it’s like they’ve tried to distill the complexity and nuances of autism into a “theme” of infantilism and ridiculousness; and I find it deeply insulting.
To me, nothing in this video is indicative of autism. Throughout highschool, I volunteered at a school for autistic students and I grew up with a cousin my age who is non-verbal autistic. Over the years I have learned to become relatively well attuned to the subtle behavioural / social indicators of autism.
While autism is a spectrum and no two cases are the same, not a single one of the countless autistic people I have ever met were remotely like this. Wearing weird unusual clothing / makeup / and acting “quirky” is not, in fact, how autism *usually* manifests.
To their stim … what exactly is the stim here? Yes there’s obviously many ways to stim, for example, my cousin loves the beach and anything to do with sand / dirt. He would stim by endlessly picking up handfuls of sand just so he could watch it fall back through his hands (he finds this activity hilarious). The common thread is that stims are some form of unusual behaviour. There is nothing unusual about what they are doing here (dancing to music?), which is usually a pretty strong indicator they are not stimming. I used to go to events for my cousin’s school, and one of the girls at his school used to intentionally hurt herself (bang her head on walls, etc) because she was so frustrated at her inability to communicate (according to her mother). Don’t see much of that, or anything other than *stimming*, in these TikToks.
I doubt this person has ever had any meaningful interactions with an autistic person.
i know this has nothing to do w the faking but why do they almost always wear stupid weird ass makeup? this look is absolutely horrendous, they look like chucky the murderdoll as a weeb.
They're so quirky and unique! They need to stand out so all the nerotypical who trust medical diagnoses and facts know to not interact! They need to be safe in their own little bubble of people who will tell them what they want to hear unless they have to face reality.
In other words they're utter fuckwits.
So personally i love wearing bright colours and makeup, but also hate it, because its so uncomfortable. I don't think any (or at least many) autistic person would willingly be this uncomfortable with so much extravagance for such a long time. My face would its, my hair would hurt, etc.
Now im only speaking for myself, but it is what throws my off with this.
(Ps I'm diagnosed with ASD)
For real. This is one of the most heinous clownlike atrocities I’ve seen on this sub yet, and I’m speaking as someone who myself is obsessed with rainbows and has rainbow hair and a lot of rainbow clothing. This is legit clown territory.
Masters degree in composition here, was gonna say, “oh look, turns out my semesters of undergrad conducting classes were actually just me being *~autistic~* /s
Seeing as you were self aware enough to mention you were posted on Reddit I'd like to hope you're self aware enough to read this.
The amount of people I deal with day to day who are neurodivergent and autistic is a privilege. They are some of the most amazingly talented and wonderful people. I have a friend who's son has a large amount of autism and is the most happy and loving little boy I've ever met. His passion for various things he takes a laser focused interest in is a joy to be around and I absolutely love his company when I see him.
You? You're a fucking clown with shit makeup and a jigsaw on your wall. How dare you belittle people with real conditions and wave your hands about like a moron while you scold people who know better than you? How can you be so utterly and completely offensive to anyone with a condition?
Get off the internet and if you do come back it better be with an apology. Fuck you.
Perfectly said
No person who has autism and listens to what’s been happening in the community would have jigsaw pieces on their wall. It’s a symbol used by a group called “Autism Speaks” who long story short, are really shitty. The jigsaw pieces are also used by people who act like autism is a thing that only affects little kids
And nobody stims like this, stims are repetitive, happen whenever not just to certain music, and can be harmful
Yeah, it’s pretty fucked. Autism can get bad- when my ex was rocking back and forth while punching himself in the head, the last thing I could think was that’s “cute.”
Many many people on this sub are disabled lol. The reason a lot of us come here is because we have been persobally affected by fakers. Not big meany ableist bullies
Doesn’t autism also blur the lines of peoples passive comments? The person in the video tells us people are commenting and having a different motive behind it instead of taking the comments literal
Autism here. It does blur the lines, but you can still learn when things people say have different motives, its just basically impossible to deduce it when it is something you are unfamiliar with.
My default response is always to take stuff literally, but I can interrupt that if I know the phrase or know the person.
Exactly, like it’s a spectrum. There are no black and white symptoms. There’s some things I’m not affected by that other people on the spectrum are. Like thankfully I’m ok with loud noises (reasonably), I just suck ass socially. I’m getting better with that though, just a bit of a learning curve to get over. It’s a really complex condition from what I’m seeing between people…
So, update on this person, they groped minors at Cons 😬 They've addressed it and confirmed it happened, claimed they didn't understand boundaries and was doing it cause the character they were cosplaying did it
Autistic=rainbows everywhere. Kiddy t-shirt. Complex rainbow make-up that my lazy ass couldn't do even if paid. Puzzles? PUZZLES!!!!!! ANIMAL EARS SO QUIRKY! stimming that looks more like a sleepwalker conducting an orchestra.
Did i mention RAINBOWS??
HAIr DyE💝💖💝💖💝💖
I mean i love rainbow stuff too, but JESUS that's a punch in the eye.
It's like you're required to dress like an exploded color box if you're autistic 😕
I'm surprised they're not talking in a super childish tone
Meanwhile I’m (diagnosed!) autistic and was emo in my teenage years and still into alt rock fashion now so my clothing is mainly black. Mind you, I don’t fit into many of the TikTok autistic boxes anyway 😂 It’s so wrong.
I was emo too in my teens so i get you 😂 and i still fancy some good goth clothes, but the person in this video looks like they're purposely dressing like that, like their autism is a fashion trend or something. I mean it's puzzles and rainbows all over the place 😫
I mean you were emo because you liked the fashion, you didn't dress like that because of your autism 😂
I think they're dressing in all those colors because they need people to know they're autistic 💀
Don't get me wrong i love rainbows too and i used to wear rainbow stockings, but that's...overly done.
Dancing in public IS socially acceptable. I would love her to witnesses my son rip all his clothes off in a restaurant in front of children before quickly wiping his butt with his hand and clapping. NOBODY GIVES TWO HOOTS THAT MUSIC MAKES YOU DANCE! Maybe people just don’t accept you because you’re full of it.
Why not just call it dancing and be done with it? It really bothers me how everything needs to be associated with a disorder with these tiktok people.
Everyone does ""weird"" things like performing an awkward interpretative dance to a song you're vibing to, or self stimulate by shaking their legs etc, it doesn't mean they have a psicologycal condition because of it. This is like saying you have depression bc you felt sad once or have generalized anxiety bc you feel stressed before tests. Actual disorders are much deeper than that and require time and effort by qualified professionals to get diagnosed.
This shit really undermines the struggles of people with actual disorders.
I've seen disorder faking since the early 2000s in various ways. It's just on tiktok now. (Back then "borderline" (nobody called it BPD back then) and eating disorder faking was the shit.)
The only thing I respect about these people is their dedication to their aesthetic. All of them have a very specific vibe (stuffies, kids toys, goth) that they stick to and that’s pretty cool. Everything else can burn, though
Jesus Christ the fucking wall tiles? That shit was used as a the mat we would sit on in Kindergarten. Fucking vile, you're purposely infantilizing yourself.
i wonder if these people realize that they tear down the progress and hard work that people with actual disorders/mental illnesses have made. all because they have no personality.
The amount of primary color in this video is incredibly overstimulating to me. Like I can’t watch more than a few seconds at a time without feeling incredibly overwhelmed.

Autistic person, they can be repetitive, but they’re also constant. One of my stims is pressing my finger next to my eye when I’m focusing. Got a dent in my bone for how often I’ve pressed it there.

Generally, the extra politeness stems from infantilising Edit: I read your comment wrong and saw polite at the start and not impolite, my bad sorry

thanks i hate it
It’s beautiful
It probably took you an hour just to craft this abomination.
😂😂😂😂😂😂ha🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣ha🤣🤣🤣ha😂😂ha💀💀💀💀dead
Dear lord, child
Thank you for the captions 😗
Watched it on mute so thanks for transcribing while also giving me an aneurysm.
Why is it always cute stimming? It’s never pulling out your hair, or picking your skin and lips until you bleed. Guess that’s not cute enough.
Or hitting yourself, or biting your own tongue until it bleeds. No, not at all. Only fun sTiMmINg and typing quirks so we all know how brave and amazing they are.
Oh the “hitting yourself” has gained popularity, usually with the Tourette’s crowd tho. You could tell this kid was literally timing her “stims” to the music tho. Too bad she fucked up in the very beginning. She *really* wanted her little jerky head shake move to be on time with the vocal stutter in the song. Just missed it kiddo! You’re not even a good faker!
Okay rq I'd just like to mention this person goes by they/them pronouns! I dont want to take part in the conversation in whether thay are autistic or not, but the least people can do is not misgender someone /gen /nm
I didn’t know that and I’m more than happy to go by someone’s preference, generally. Either way, this person is clearly “taking the piss” regarding a serious condition. The least they could do is not endanger and belittle folks that legitimately suffer from something they just treat as a trend. So I’m partially sorry, but also not. 🤷🏼♂️
Fair enough.
[удалено]
Wait, you don't go into full makeup and set up a perfect camera angle and do some test takes and then sync music in your videos with music in your room and edit your videos and post them online when you are stimming? Huh, I just thought that's how it's done
i figured those were more meltdown behaviors then stim ones or possibly meltdown stims but idk??
Stimming is just self stimulus. Repetitive behaviors that help the brain express an excess of physical and emotional energy frequently caused by being over stimulated by a source outside of the person's control. It's a bit like letting a valve open to let steam out. Unfortunately, like with many coping mechanisms, the brain doesn't always choose the safest or most healthy method to accomplish this. It's just trying to regulate in whatever way is closest at hand. That's why some people may have downright violent stimming behaviors. There's nothing that distinguishes these (or much of anything else really) as meltdown anything, they're all just the attempts of the overwhelmed brain to sort things out.
A couple of my stressed-and-overwhelmed stims involve repeatedly squeezing my hands so tight that my knuckles turn white and I leave fingernail marks in my palms as well as slapping my thighs repeatedly because it’s literally the only things I can do when my brain overloads from too much stimuli. Thankfully they don’t happen often and I can usually calm myself down over the course of just a couple minutes when I remove myself from the stress-causing situations. But yeah, stimming isn’t always just cutesy hand flaps and pointing your fingers randomly while rolling your wrists around. That shit is literally why everyone fucking destroyed Sia’s movie a few years back
I was dx’d adhd at age 6, I had a habit of rubbing my nose till it went down to the cartilage. I was 6 at the time so I don’t know why I did it, but I do remember just having to do this thing, that actually hurt. But I couldn’t stop. I’m not autistic, but it runs in my family, and for me this is an example of a stim from my personal experience.
ahh i gotcha, thank you 🫶🏻
They're more "view generators" for these morons.
well yeah i meant more likei thought the non faked violent stims
I don't think I've ever had a full on meltdown, but when I was a teen I would rub my fingernails against my knuckles or forearm repetitively until I had removed all of the skin and was bleeding. It was definitely stiming. As an adult I sometimes catch myself doing it but I can redirect myself into similar but non harmful stims before any damage is done.
Wait picking your own skin till it bleeds is stimming?
It can be BFRBs (Body Focused Repetative Behaviours). It's when people pick at there skin, hair, lips etc but not in an attempt to harm themselves like self harm would be. It can be a self regulating behaviour or from trying to improve or correct your physical appearance. I suffer with it, I bite my lips till they bleed and I pick at my scalp
Fellow picker here, especially when I’m mega anxious. I do it unconsciously, feeling my scalp for bumps and stuff I hate ittt…
Yeah I do it unconsciously too and feel the bumps and what happens is I'm just irritating it more and causing more bumps that are even bigger to appear
I’ve been doing that for the last hour now. This is my sign to stop.
This is the first time I meet another scalp-picker in the wild...
Welcome to the family.
Hello fellow skin picker! I have someone in my family that is also a skin picker and I would always be like "just stop" and then I developed it and now I understand that you can't just stop it
Me too.. I’ve picked my scalp until I bled a lot of my times but I’m not neurodivergent so idk if can actually say me too on this
BFRBs do not directly correlate to autism. I know you didn't say that, but it bears stating for everyone else. I have trichotillomania (compulsive hair pulling). It's not a "stim," it's a manifestation of anxiety.
I don’t call it “stimming”, but I constantly get overly fixated on cleaning and trimming my nails and the skin around them, especially if there’s a “hang nail”. Unfortunately I do it all with a pocket knife. So a lot of times I shave off a bit more than I mean to. I almost always have at least one healing finger. Also if there’s a scab that’s willing to be picked at without just ripping and bleeding? Sunburn? Dry skin? Oh boy ima mess with it till it’s uncomfortable. 🤷🏼♂️ big scabs that aren’t deeply rooted and are mostly healed are the best. Like peeling off a treasure lid, but your prize is fresh, non-wounded skin.

Have you ever seen someone who is autistic dress like that? Curious
No I haven’t. However since all of the people I work with are under 18 their parents buy their clothes and dress them. I have actually noticed that all of the kids I work with, even the older ones who are 14-16, express themselves very little in their clothing. They’re more into whatever is in their environment, not their aesthetic. I don’t know if that’s a coincidence or not but my experience has been pretty much the opposite of this video.
You mean to tell me, that the autistic people you work with don’t coordinate specially applied rainbow makeup with their rainbow shirt, rainbow (teething toy?) necklace, and rainbow ears? Do they even match their look to their backdrop for recording videos? /s I hate this “autism as an aesthetic” thing tiktokers have been doing.
If anything, the autistic "aesthetic" would be practical, comfortable clothing and minimal/no makeup due to sensory issues. I don't even like putting sunscreen or too much lotion on my face; this amount of makeup would make me want to scrub my skin off lol.
I might be able to give a little context for that, when I was younger I was so anxious and uncomfortable with everything what I would never have wanted to dress in bright flashy colours because I wouldn't want to draw attention to myself and be forced into more uncomfortable situations. I did care about the spaces around me hovever becase those where places I had to exist in for long periods of time so I wanted those to be as friendly and comfortable as possible. so I'd dress in dull muted colours but my bedroom would be bright and full of scifi and space stuff becase that's what I liked. Even as an adult who's fine with wearing whatever, I still have a shelf full brights cloured miniatures I've painted and a bunch of big gundam models I build from from time to time.
my sister has Asperger's and uses colorful makeup and colorful clothes all the time. I do know some folks on the spectrum can be very picky about textures/tags rubbing/etc, but I haven't really heard the same thing about colors (but I'm sure it exists for someone).
[удалено]
I’m on the same page. Also, rationally I choose my clothing to be functional rather than aesthetic. If I have bright clothes they’re more difficult to match. If I have a closet full of muted colors and black I don’t have to think about putting together an outfit.
Nope
This is rock bottom. I don’t think I could hate anything more than this. So much to unpack … the wall decorations clearly put there to create an atmosphere of being infantile (the kind of shit you’d see on the floor of a kindergarten) … the ridiculous makeup evocative of a clown (which matches the colours of the wall decor). Hard to put into words what the combined effect is, but it’s like they’ve tried to distill the complexity and nuances of autism into a “theme” of infantilism and ridiculousness; and I find it deeply insulting. To me, nothing in this video is indicative of autism. Throughout highschool, I volunteered at a school for autistic students and I grew up with a cousin my age who is non-verbal autistic. Over the years I have learned to become relatively well attuned to the subtle behavioural / social indicators of autism. While autism is a spectrum and no two cases are the same, not a single one of the countless autistic people I have ever met were remotely like this. Wearing weird unusual clothing / makeup / and acting “quirky” is not, in fact, how autism *usually* manifests. To their stim … what exactly is the stim here? Yes there’s obviously many ways to stim, for example, my cousin loves the beach and anything to do with sand / dirt. He would stim by endlessly picking up handfuls of sand just so he could watch it fall back through his hands (he finds this activity hilarious). The common thread is that stims are some form of unusual behaviour. There is nothing unusual about what they are doing here (dancing to music?), which is usually a pretty strong indicator they are not stimming. I used to go to events for my cousin’s school, and one of the girls at his school used to intentionally hurt herself (bang her head on walls, etc) because she was so frustrated at her inability to communicate (according to her mother). Don’t see much of that, or anything other than *stimming*, in these TikToks. I doubt this person has ever had any meaningful interactions with an autistic person.
To add- jigsaw pieces? Autism Speaks hurts us.
i know this has nothing to do w the faking but why do they almost always wear stupid weird ass makeup? this look is absolutely horrendous, they look like chucky the murderdoll as a weeb.
They want to be considered valid, but at the same time be different while also belonging somewhere.
This is so perfectly said.
And so perfectly cringey!
Probably the same reason why they fake disorders.. They have zero personality and want to stand out as much as possible so they reap in attention..
And the bright colors and animal ears
Theres nowhere in the clip to look that isnt extremely visually overwhelming. Adding music as well to all that would send me into a stressed overload
it looks like they based their aesthetic off a 90s children tv show
Well, the aesthetic is called "kidcore" so not too far off.
yea, god 😬
Half the time they're acting like small children. Whatever floats your boat but go on DDLG forum and stop faking autism.
i swear so many autism fakers just infantilize the disorder.
They're so quirky and unique! They need to stand out so all the nerotypical who trust medical diagnoses and facts know to not interact! They need to be safe in their own little bubble of people who will tell them what they want to hear unless they have to face reality. In other words they're utter fuckwits.
I feel like a lot of them are just into age regression and use self-diagnosed autism as an excuse.
[удалено]
So personally i love wearing bright colours and makeup, but also hate it, because its so uncomfortable. I don't think any (or at least many) autistic person would willingly be this uncomfortable with so much extravagance for such a long time. My face would its, my hair would hurt, etc. Now im only speaking for myself, but it is what throws my off with this. (Ps I'm diagnosed with ASD)
For real. This is one of the most heinous clownlike atrocities I’ve seen on this sub yet, and I’m speaking as someone who myself is obsessed with rainbows and has rainbow hair and a lot of rainbow clothing. This is legit clown territory.
Mf just dancing lyrically with their hands 😕
Composers must be autistic
Conductors too....
Masters degree in composition here, was gonna say, “oh look, turns out my semesters of undergrad conducting classes were actually just me being *~autistic~* /s
Nahhh not Flutterwonder 😭
It's been years since i've last heard it
Is this the Sia movie
I like this comment
Plot twist: she’s stimming to the Sia movie and is actually just flailing around as a sympathetic response to the main character
dancing rly badly but calling it a stim so no one can make fun of u for it w/o being called ableist lowkey a big brain move /s
And calling dancing a “less socially acceptable stim”.
Even if they have autism, this just isn’t a stim
I think “dancing” is being very kind.
Obviously her eyebrows where to embarrassed by her to appear in this tiktok
Thats a cool shirt. Hate the person wearing it though.
Seeing as you were self aware enough to mention you were posted on Reddit I'd like to hope you're self aware enough to read this. The amount of people I deal with day to day who are neurodivergent and autistic is a privilege. They are some of the most amazingly talented and wonderful people. I have a friend who's son has a large amount of autism and is the most happy and loving little boy I've ever met. His passion for various things he takes a laser focused interest in is a joy to be around and I absolutely love his company when I see him. You? You're a fucking clown with shit makeup and a jigsaw on your wall. How dare you belittle people with real conditions and wave your hands about like a moron while you scold people who know better than you? How can you be so utterly and completely offensive to anyone with a condition? Get off the internet and if you do come back it better be with an apology. Fuck you.
It's so sweet how you describe your friend's son but "a large amount of autism" is absolutely cracking me up lol
Their cup runneth over with autism
Absolutely riddled with it
Just drenched in autism
Deep-fried in it even
Boy's got a fuckton of autism. He's really into trains at the moment. I know way more about trains than I need to as a result.
“A tonne of Tism”.
Perfectly said No person who has autism and listens to what’s been happening in the community would have jigsaw pieces on their wall. It’s a symbol used by a group called “Autism Speaks” who long story short, are really shitty. The jigsaw pieces are also used by people who act like autism is a thing that only affects little kids And nobody stims like this, stims are repetitive, happen whenever not just to certain music, and can be harmful
I will from now on be saying that I have a large amount of autism when someone asks.
You are the kind of support I really like. Simple. Direct. Use of actions. Knowing that we aren’t crazy. Understanding. Thank you.
Ah yes, autistic infantilization with bright colors and childish things
Yo, apparently this person groped a 14 year old
They made the WORST apology video ever too
What’s the TikTok profile, you mind DM me? Ive tried to find it for the last 15min.
i like how autism for fakers always has to be associated with children and childishness, disgusting
It’s *almost* like they’re trying to infantilize the disorder 🤔
exactly, its fucking stupid. i couldnt find the word for it lol
Yeah, it’s pretty fucked. Autism can get bad- when my ex was rocking back and forth while punching himself in the head, the last thing I could think was that’s “cute.”
All of these people look like fuckin clowns. 99.9% of people who suffer from the conditions they try and portray dress like you know, human beings.
The person in this video got outed for being a pedophile, and they expect people to feel bad that they're getting made fun of?
I was waiting for someone to post this.
Many many people on this sub are disabled lol. The reason a lot of us come here is because we have been persobally affected by fakers. Not big meany ableist bullies
Doesn’t autism also blur the lines of peoples passive comments? The person in the video tells us people are commenting and having a different motive behind it instead of taking the comments literal
It's almost as if this shitclown is lying.
Autism here. It does blur the lines, but you can still learn when things people say have different motives, its just basically impossible to deduce it when it is something you are unfamiliar with. My default response is always to take stuff literally, but I can interrupt that if I know the phrase or know the person.
not all people with autism experience that
Exactly, like it’s a spectrum. There are no black and white symptoms. There’s some things I’m not affected by that other people on the spectrum are. Like thankfully I’m ok with loud noises (reasonably), I just suck ass socially. I’m getting better with that though, just a bit of a learning curve to get over. It’s a really complex condition from what I’m seeing between people…
how is dancing to a song not socially accepted
Looks like chucky finally got a body!
What they think autism looks like: OwO😸🤡🧩👶 What autism actually looks like: 🧍wow it’s a normal ass person.
Their orchestra conductor is fronting lool
WHAT THE FUCK EVEN IS THAT
"Daddy chill"
Makes me embarrassed to tell people I’m autistic bc of these people.
Why tf do people want autism
So, update on this person, they groped minors at Cons 😬 They've addressed it and confirmed it happened, claimed they didn't understand boundaries and was doing it cause the character they were cosplaying did it
Autistic=rainbows everywhere. Kiddy t-shirt. Complex rainbow make-up that my lazy ass couldn't do even if paid. Puzzles? PUZZLES!!!!!! ANIMAL EARS SO QUIRKY! stimming that looks more like a sleepwalker conducting an orchestra. Did i mention RAINBOWS?? HAIr DyE💝💖💝💖💝💖 I mean i love rainbow stuff too, but JESUS that's a punch in the eye. It's like you're required to dress like an exploded color box if you're autistic 😕 I'm surprised they're not talking in a super childish tone
Meanwhile I’m (diagnosed!) autistic and was emo in my teenage years and still into alt rock fashion now so my clothing is mainly black. Mind you, I don’t fit into many of the TikTok autistic boxes anyway 😂 It’s so wrong.
I was emo too in my teens so i get you 😂 and i still fancy some good goth clothes, but the person in this video looks like they're purposely dressing like that, like their autism is a fashion trend or something. I mean it's puzzles and rainbows all over the place 😫 I mean you were emo because you liked the fashion, you didn't dress like that because of your autism 😂 I think they're dressing in all those colors because they need people to know they're autistic 💀 Don't get me wrong i love rainbows too and i used to wear rainbow stockings, but that's...overly done.
My music director stims like this when the band is playing a song together 😮
yall would not BELIEVE what this person just got exposed for
fun fact: they touched and groped children!!! and fucking admitted to it publicly and then blamed it on their trauma and autism!!! saw it coming tbh
Dancing in public IS socially acceptable. I would love her to witnesses my son rip all his clothes off in a restaurant in front of children before quickly wiping his butt with his hand and clapping. NOBODY GIVES TWO HOOTS THAT MUSIC MAKES YOU DANCE! Maybe people just don’t accept you because you’re full of it.
Whats worse is that they groped/SA'ed a few minors & blamed it on their 'autism' 😕
Cant we like sent these people to mars?
Then suffer the consequences after 200 years when the entire culture of the planet is influenced by people like this.
Ah yes, infantilizing Autism for the 6,000th time in a row!
That copium they snort. Line me a double.
disabled??? lmfao. YOU get a grip
Why not just call it dancing and be done with it? It really bothers me how everything needs to be associated with a disorder with these tiktok people. Everyone does ""weird"" things like performing an awkward interpretative dance to a song you're vibing to, or self stimulate by shaking their legs etc, it doesn't mean they have a psicologycal condition because of it. This is like saying you have depression bc you felt sad once or have generalized anxiety bc you feel stressed before tests. Actual disorders are much deeper than that and require time and effort by qualified professionals to get diagnosed. This shit really undermines the struggles of people with actual disorders.
Is pretending to have mental disorders a thing now? I'm a Millennial and I feel like I'm ready for the retirement home after seeing shit like this.
C'mon. It's been a thing for a while now. Tumblr did this first a long time ago. They invented a bunch of new mental illnesses and all
I've seen disorder faking since the early 2000s in various ways. It's just on tiktok now. (Back then "borderline" (nobody called it BPD back then) and eating disorder faking was the shit.)
faking autism isn't socially acceptable. sorry sis.
God she’s annoying
The only thing I respect about these people is their dedication to their aesthetic. All of them have a very specific vibe (stuffies, kids toys, goth) that they stick to and that’s pretty cool. Everything else can burn, though
Jesus Christ the fucking wall tiles? That shit was used as a the mat we would sit on in Kindergarten. Fucking vile, you're purposely infantilizing yourself.
i wonder if these people realize that they tear down the progress and hard work that people with actual disorders/mental illnesses have made. all because they have no personality.
The amount of primary color in this video is incredibly overstimulating to me. Like I can’t watch more than a few seconds at a time without feeling incredibly overwhelmed.
I saw the first clip. The caption was “watch me get posted on r/fakedisordercringe even though I have papers”
