- 1:20Okay, so I wanted to this video for a while.
- 1:22I wanted to talk about like super interesting, facts about
- 1:24awesome, that every must see because it's such a fascinating
- 1:27subject of such a vast subject. I thought, hey, wouldn't it be
- 1:29interesting to talk about facts that nobody else is talking
- 1:31about and nobody's doing these videos?
- 1:33So I thought I'm going to do them, that's going to be a
- 1:35Saving Grace, get yourself, you know, a couple water gets
- 1:39awesome, at World, merge links in description below on the
- 1:41carousel. Down below, chill out but it's a
- 1:45lie on put me on and watch these seven inches and fat.
- 1:48All right, let's go. Okay, number one, autism wasn't
- 1:52always called autism. So the condition autism was
- 1:56initially called Canada syndrome and later early, infantile
- 2:00autism and then just became autism.
- 2:02Now, the reason for this is because Leo Kanner, he was a
- 2:06scientist or a psychologist, who are studying in the 1940s All
- 2:10About Auto still the His have a kind of a curb that burst of Leo
- 2:14Kanner and Hans Asperger kind of coming up with these terms and
- 2:18the the basically the early adopted ideas of autism in their
- 2:25case studies. And so obviously you have
- 2:27Asperger syndrome which in the enough to hands Asperger and he
- 2:29had the cancer syndrome, which they became infantile autism.
- 2:32And then just autism, super interesting, right?
- 2:34I thought was interesting, right?
- 2:36So a number two is boys versus girls now, autism is five times.
- 2:41Likely in males than females, although the statistics don't
- 2:45really match up when you think about the fact that like
- 2:49misdiagnosis masking and the weird thing that there's more
- 2:54females in the world than males in the world.
- 2:55How are they are five times more males diagnosing autism females
- 2:59super really, I don't know. I confuses me.
- 3:01It's super really interesting and it's something I want to put
- 3:03in here because the factor five times as many males and females
- 3:06are diagnosed. It's just mind-blowing.
- 3:09That's super cool as a fact. It's been So much stand alone,
- 3:13okay? Number three hidden,
- 3:15disabilities autism is classed as a hidden disability.
- 3:19Now, hidden disability means something that you can't really
- 3:21see of the bat, but it's still disabled like, if you have a
- 3:24mental health condition, if you have a neurological disorder
- 3:26and, well, there's a bunch of other, you know, you could be
- 3:29something internally that's disabling you.
- 3:31But in terms of autism, it's classified as a hidden
- 3:34disability. I think I quite interesting.
- 3:36So, they actually made this a lanyard, which I don't have only
- 3:39now because I've by my keys but it's basically a line.
- 3:41With sunflowers around it. So that if you wear that people
- 3:45it of you know, inflict store managers store shop owners and
- 3:49people in airports and staff of authority will see that and go.
- 3:54Oh yeah, yeah, that's a hidden disability line.
- 3:57Yard Beacon for people of authorities realized, oh this
- 3:59person's got hidden disability. I need to help make sure that
- 4:02they're okay. Because a lot of the time, it
- 4:04doesn't really help that you're having a hidden disabilities and
- 4:07help. You know, if you see some of the
- 4:08wheelchair struggling to get upstairs, then it's obvious,
- 4:11isn't it? But if you got Some with autism
- 4:12kind of walk around an airport freaking out, it's less obvious.
- 4:15But hidden disability is nomenclature which is been given
- 4:19to people in the office inspection which I feel is super
- 4:21interesting. So number four is the mental
- 4:24health issues, right? So every one in three adults on
- 4:29the autism spectrum has an impact by a severe mental
- 4:33health, condition and need support for that.
- 4:35That's crazy, right? So one in every three adults on
- 4:38the autism spectrum has a severe mental health And they do need
- 4:42support for that. So, autism comes with comorbid
- 4:45issues. Like it could come with
- 4:47depression or anxiety or on the whole host of different things.
- 4:50And the most interesting thing about that is that the rate is
- 4:53really high one in three. So, like 1003, like a third of
- 4:57people on the autism spectrum have mental health issues.
- 4:59I find that super interesting, super fascinating and kind of
- 5:03like, it's just, it's just interesting to know because if
- 5:06you know someone who is on the autism spectrum, having this
- 5:09information, makes it more like Like you can, you can understand
- 5:14if they're having like a depression day because you like,
- 5:16okay, well, it comes come obviously with the condition,
- 5:17right? And so, it's really interesting
- 5:19in the only blue stops and thinks about mental, health
- 5:21conditions. And I think about autism because
- 5:23they already primary program to think about the neurological
- 5:26implications and like, like, oh, it's neurological.
- 5:29It's this, that neither, it's not, I don't know.
- 5:32It's just interesting. That people don't think about
- 5:34autism from a mental health perspective, okay?
- 5:37So number five, the origin of the name, autism.
- 5:39This is really interesting. Okay, so the Autism stems from
- 5:43the Greek word autist, meaning self, and Autumn literally means
- 5:50alone. So autism.
- 5:53So self autism itself alone, I guess, is that, that will
- 5:56eternity here. So, awesome literally means
- 5:58alone by itself. So, it's the auto scan of alone,
- 6:03which is, again, like itself kind of isolating thing, which
- 6:06is like a self alone, autism, which is really weird.
- 6:09I find that really bizarre that they called it that But it comes
- 6:12from Greek word, autos, and that's really, really
- 6:16interesting. And it is we that lead named
- 6:18that and I want to know how they came from canners syndrome to to
- 6:24autism or really infantile autism, which is really
- 6:26interesting. And that's another fascinating
- 6:27concept. That like autism was was said to
- 6:31be like this thing. Only kids could get for years
- 6:34and years and people, some people still even believe that
- 6:35some people who have no idea what they're talking about,
- 6:39okay? Number 6, autism, Seizures.
- 6:42Now, up to a third of people on the autism spectrum have
- 6:45developed seizure disorders with a rate of seizures in people
- 6:48with ASD is 10 times higher than a neurotypical person.
- 6:51Meaning that if you're on the autism spectrum, you're more
- 6:53likely, get 10 times more likely to have seizures of things like
- 6:57epilepsy. Because, you know, at the end of
- 6:59the day, it kind of comes come morbidly.
- 7:02And, you know, it's funny. I know a lot of autistic people
- 7:04who have epileptic seizures, which is just fascinating that
- 7:08the whole concept of, you know, things that come Come up with
- 7:12Lee with autism. It's just fascinating.
- 7:14Okay, so number seven and also some and other conditions about
- 7:1810% of people with Autism Spectrum, disorders, also have
- 7:22another genetic neurological or metabolic disorder.
- 7:26Now, gastrointestinal issues are very, very common with people on
- 7:30the autism spectrum. They may have like celiacs
- 7:32disease as well. They may have IBS all kinds of
- 7:36stuff which is like, super, really interesting.
- 7:38Like I did a video on this before where I am?
- 7:41I said that one I don't have that some GI issues that come
- 7:43with with autism and XML also comes with autism.
- 7:47It's just fascinating. Okay?
- 7:48So number eight, is autism in history.
- 7:51It is speculated that Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, Andy
- 7:54Warhol, and Bill Gates are also on the Autism Spectrum, which is
- 7:57super interesting because there's actually I read an
- 7:59article where Bill Gates would rock backwards and forwards in
- 8:03meetings and stuff like that in his office.
- 8:05And that's obviously a form of stimming and steaming obviously
- 8:08is a part of autism and so, Bill Gates is yeah.
- 8:11Yeah, I've been in said to be on the autism spectrum, but also,
- 8:13the behavior of Isaac. Newton was very erratic as well,
- 8:17and he even, I think it was Isaac Newton, actually had a
- 8:19stairwell built into the back of his apartment block, because he
- 8:23wanted to have an entrance when nobody would see him and they
- 8:26were just absolutely fantastic. Albert.
- 8:28Einstein again, very, very clever man.
- 8:30And they did like a retrospective, like, not taste
- 8:34like a retrospective autism assessment on our line Stein's
- 8:38behavior. And they said that he would have
- 8:39been the on the autism spectrum for sure.
- 8:41And That is really, really interesting.
- 8:43So I gave you a bonus from that number 8 because I'm just just
- 8:46awesome like that, you know, I just want a guy.
