Do you see the days of the week in colour? Do you see sound as colour? So synethesia is a neurological condition that can be diagnosed as part of an autism spectrum disorder or as a independent condition. Synethesia is characterised by the ability for a person to experience flashes of colour when hearing sound. Or a person may relate a certain colour to a certain word, phrase or set of words. I have this experience where I see the days of the week as certain colours and I also see the months as colours to. They all have different colours but they do have a relationship to each other, and a sort of feeling that accompanies each one of them. This condition is fascinating and also quite common in a person on the autism spectrum. Please leave a comment if you have anything to add, I read every single one.

Why is autism and music talent so common? I’m jumping in and talking about that right now. So music and autism have a huge relationship, and have done for many years but why? There are a number of autistic individuals who are musicians and are very talented in the music industry. I myself am a self taught multi musician on the autism spectrum and i think i know why. As I learned the structure of how instruments create music and chords i realised it was all mathematics and patterns. Autistic people are logical thinkers and love patterns. This is why autistic people love routines. So music is no exception, it is a pattern based mathematical sound, which is sensory stimulating to.

So what do you know about Tourette’s and Autism? Are they linked? Are they the same? I’m explain all that. So Tourette’s is such an interesting neurological condition that impacts about 1 in 163 people on average, and is a difficult condition to deal with at times. It creates impulses of tics, which are involuntary nosies, or sounds or movements that just occur in random succession. There is a link that exists between autism and Tourette’s and that is that they are both neurological conditions and that they both enable tics. I experience tics with autism, which are impulsive reactions to situations. For example if I am overwhelmed stressed, or nervous I have a tic that occurs where I hit my chest and cough. Tourette’s is sometimes co-occurring in autism to, so a person could be diagnosed with autism and also Tourette’s at the same time. But they are also diagnosable independent of each other, so you can be diagnosed with only autism and or only Tourette’s

Here is why aspergers and emotions have a difficult balance in every day life. People on the autism spectrum have a difficulty with all levels of communication. This can be in the form of social communication and or sensory processing disorder, but also it can be emotional communication. The ability to know ones emotions and feelings is a skill, but to then communicate those emotional feelings to other people is an acquired skill that autistic people have difficulty in. It is all down to how the autistic brain understands the way it communicates with the outside world. Everything about autism comes down to communication. Without efficient emotional communication an Autistc person will have stressful outbursts and in lots of cases meltdowns.

Here is the secret to autism and driving issues you NEED to see! So you are having issues with driving and being on the autism spectrum right? Lots of people believe that autistic people cannot drive and are un-able to learn to drive. This is simply not true, I’m autistic and I drive. Autistic people can drive but they just need a little bit of extra help when trying to learn to drive. When I was learning to drive I realise what one of the biggest issues was for me. Learning to drive in a car was so overwhelming as there was so many different parts to remember and memorise whilst sitting in a car with an instructor. Not only that you also had to make sure that you were sensory okay so the temperature and the smells and the sounds were okay for you to drive. But the main thing that came for me was that when I realised how the car worked logically looking at the engine knowing how the gearbox worth knowing how the clutch worked when I realised how this worked

Autism in Children. This is how I was, as a child with autism! Autism creates a lot of issues for children in the aspect of socialising and sensory processing. I myself was a very reserved kid, I never was able to make new friends and I had a hard time coping with the friends that I actually had. I would prefer to stay indoors and play with electronics and chemistry set than go and play out on the streets with my bike and the other kids. So much so that when I have my birthday party is my parents would have to allow me to go home and take a rest during the party because it was so. I never really enjoyed birthday parties because they were too loud and the children were too much to handle for me. But I created my own coping strategy by being able to go home and just lay down on the sofa when I needed to have a break from all the hustle and bustle from the party. Always listen to your kids once in regards to birthday parties and socialising with friends, as

This is the difference between autism meltdowns and tantrums! There is a lot of issues with the way in which people understand autism and it’s complex issues. People often will call a meltdown as a tantrum, but that is not the case and here is why. Am autism meltdown is caused by an overload of information, this could be sensory input or any kind of information flow to an autistic person. The autistic person cannot compute the communication request from the external stimuli that is happening and has an outburst of emotions, again from the miscommunication of emotional communication. This is an involuntary reaction to an involuntary situation that is out of the control of the autistic person. With a tantrum, this is a voluntary action happening in a situation where the want’s of a persons titration are not met. The person who is creating the tantrum is able to stop at any time and is in full control of the tantrum, which is not what happens during an autis

This is what depression feels like for an autistic person. Depression is very common for a lot of Autistc people to experience once in a while. As autism is a neurological condition that impacts a persons ability to communicate, it also hosts a bunch of mental health conditions. Many autistic people will experience depression and stress and anxiety in a very interesting way. Autistic people cannot express their emotions very well and have a hard time dong so in situations of heightened emotion. This is why depression can be even worse for people who are autistic due to the issues with communicating emotions and feelings.
