Top Comments of this video!! :3
I suffered trauma and severe depression since my teenage. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Spent my whole life fighting cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

13 years of bullying and rejection that happened in the public school system due to undiagnosed autism gave me CPTSD. But again, I also had enmeshment trauma from my mom who had high narcissistic traits, so it all blended together. But the mean people were at school. Lots of things can be worked through, but not everything. Loud voices or yelling still really jar my system.

At 76 years old, I have learned that I am aspergers and cptsd. I am relieved to still be alive so that I know the WHY of who I have been all my life. There is sorrow for who I might have been, and anger over abuse I should not have had in my life. But this late in life, to have an exultant affirmation of what I knew more than 70 years ago gives me great peace and strength.
I don't know when you put this video together, and I don't know how I happened to check your channel tonight, but the coincidence of it all is proof of connections which come to us as mysteries bringing wisdom and wonder.
Thank you...

As someone with C-PTSD and not autism, I think this misses the mark on the biggest difference I see between the two. I am hyper aware of peopleās facial expressions and am better than the average neurotypical person at reading body language and social situations. This is probably an adaptive skill from growing up in a very chaotic environment, where I needed to know how the adults around me were feeling at all times. There is a bit of discomfort in social situations, but itās from a fear of rejection, and not from a fear of misunderstanding something or being misunderstood.

I'm a 47 year old autistic woman with CPTSD. Thank you for helping me unravel all the various traits and aspects that come with this combination. I used to think of myself as very unusual and alone, and the more I learn, the more I see my experience as very typical and normal. It's so reassuring to not constantly feel like an outlier. Thank you again for putting this information out into the world.

I want to add that high sensitive people (HSP) also have some of these signs at the daily base line. For instance constantly being sensitive to stimuli or taking longer to regulate after a stressful event. So if someone is HSP and has early complex trauma, it is even more difficult to distinct it from ASD.

I found out I have CPTSD instead of Autism. Every piece of the puzzle felt in each other. I am abused on VERY young age.... What explained my fear, my amount of bladder infections and such. What explained why my mom always did the word for me instead of me. etc etc etc.
I am healing now ā¤. And found my true self - finally

"she's too social, but if she wasn't we'd diagnose her with ASD." That is the paraphrased assessment I got as a very young child. I had a significant speech delay. I have numerous learning disabilities. And as for social? I distinctly remember as a young child preferring to play independently. There was a tree on the playground at my elementary school. I would sit under it and play with toys I had brought from home. I remember teachers getting frustrated trying to get me to play with the other kids. But they didn't want to play how I wanted to play. And I didn't understand there were rules to their games. In preschool I brought in the huge bucket of worms for show and tell. And I kept trying to wonder off to play with it. To the point my otherwise empathetic preschool teacher snapped and threatened to dump it out in the yard. It was a sensory thing. I can go on and on. I had an eval as an adult because I wanted to see if I qualify for asd. My raad score was 165. Definitive diagnosis. My in person assessment was definitive neurotypical. "How can I have two starkly different results?" My psychologist couldn't explain it. I did also experience CPTSD. But it was recognized and documented very early on I wasn't neurotypical. I joke that I deserve an EGOT for my masking. Because when my mask does slip people struggle to understand what's happening.

This video is brilliant. There is so far to go in understanding the complexities of both ... yet we are already, yet again, in an arrogant medial/psychological mainstream/neurotypical/objective-not-experiential world / system that thinks we have already arrived at 'post autism'. Yeah, the know it all, right?! As someone with both, who has an incredible therapist in EMDR trauma therapy yet who also refuses to believe I am autistic (welcome to mainland Europe...) this video clanged the bells of Notre Dame.

Absolutely, once I saw it I couldn't unsee it. Autism in women didn't seem to exist the same as autism in men. I think in general AFAB people are late in getting diagnosed if at all. I really feel like we're at a near turning point in equality and diversity. I see so many similarities and thank you for sharing
