#autism #autistic #aspergers #autisticfemale • Autistic women are underdiagnosed due to a lack of research and testing in the female/AFAB population. This video is designed to give you a better understanding of commonly overlooked traits in autistic women in the hopes that we can better understand autism and create a better support network for the people who need it. • In this video, I discuss commonly overlooked traits in the autistic women/AFAB population. Unfortunately, autistic women are often misdiagnosed and under-diagnosed because research has heavily biased the male presentation. • Please be mindful that this video is to provide a better understanding of autism and how it can present. • The traits listed are from personal experience, anecdotal evidence, and that read in peer-reviewed research articles and should not be used to diagnose oneself in isolation. • But, if you find yourself relating to several or all of these, it might be worth looking further into Autism Spectrum Disorder and a diagnosis. • _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ • Welcome to my channel (which, in a sense, is me, Rebecca). • So hey...👋🏻 • If you are an ADHDer or Autistic or think you or someone you love may be, this channel (is most probably) for you! So, Why Am I Here? (glad you asked...) I discovered my Autism and ADHD in my early 20's. After years of invisible struggles that no one around me seemed to experience, my diagnoses helped articulate them. • I hope my channel will give you a sense of validation, connection and support. To create a space of acceptance and value. Or maybe my idiosyncrasies will somewhat entertain you (she says proudly). Although Autism and ADHD are commonly co-morbid, there seems to be a large gap of anecdotal evidence currently missing in society. And yes, I may not ‘look’ Autistic or ADHD. But that's the whole point of this. I want to show and talk about my experience's to stop the misconceptions, misnomers, schemas and stereotypes that perpetually hurt neurodiverse indivduals . • If you find any value in my channel, feel free to 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐁𝐄 ‼ 👍🏻
