• 0:45
  You know, when I was a little kid growing up, a lot of people
• 0:47
  say I was overly shy. I was so shy, in fact, that
• 0:50
  there was that was the main thing.
• 0:51
  Which are we Daniel's too shy, use too many things going on.
• 0:54
  But that's not necessarily the case.
• 0:55
  I actually was diagnosed Asperger Syndrome, which is now
• 0:57
  called Autism Spectrum disorder. That kind of accounts for most
• 1:00
  of the issues. So I want to talk of some of the
• 1:03
  key differences between Asperges and shyness.
• 1:05
  Right. So asperges often involves lack
• 1:07
  of social skills, whereas shyness doesn't necessarily have
• 1:10
  this issue. You know you can be, have or
• 1:12
  have shyness but still be able to understand social protocol,
• 1:15
  right? Which is what people with
• 1:16
  Asperges. Aspergers can also involve
• 1:18
  repetitive behavior. You know, doing the same thing
• 1:21
  over over again. But again, you know, shyness
• 1:23
  won't have this. It's just shyness.
• 1:25
  At the end of the day, people with Aspergers will struggle to
• 1:27
  understand, read social cues from social conventions, how
• 1:30
  close to stand to somebody, how much of the conversation you
• 1:33
  have to put input before it's somebody else's turn.
• 1:36
  And all those kind of key areas which I think are so important
• 1:38
  for social cues. Asperger syndrome.
• 1:40
  People with that condition won't know that those those inherent
• 1:43
  issues with socializing. However, people with shyness
• 1:46
  definitely will. It's something that people who
• 1:48
  suffer from shyness will still understand the social protocol,
• 1:51
  which may be shy, you know, and it's more important really to
• 1:54
  understand some of the key actual elements is on with the
• 1:57
  term Asperger syndrome, which is now just called ASD for Autism
• 2:00
  Spectrum disorder, they would have difficulty with social
• 2:02
  interactions, right? They'll have limited interest in
• 2:04
  in anything. Want to have routines to have
• 2:07
  like very scheduled. Their days will be very much the
• 2:10
  same and even their food will be quite restricted and they will
• 2:13
  have repetitive behavior that they get enjoyment out of.
• 2:16
  That's someone with an awesome fashion sorted enjoys.
• 2:19
  They'll have sensory processing issues.
• 2:20
  I mean maybe the lights, sound smell, these may be quite
• 2:23
  overwhelmed somebody with Aspergers and and then there'll
• 2:26
  be a difficulty with communication and it could be
• 2:29
  written communication, it could be non verbal communication, it
• 2:32
  could be any type of communication that that person
• 2:34
  may find difficult. Now if you somebody else knows
• 2:37
  that these are something that impacts your life and you
• 2:39
