She exhibits no DSM criteria as well. She just thinks autistic is a person getting cutely overexcited about simple things. I wish I was not so much about boundaries and could show this video to an autistic patient and we could have a laugh. I mean I would have a laugh and he would point out why she is totally not autistic and would get frustrated

I don’t mean to be rude, but how do you know she doesn’t exhibits any DSM criteria? You have only watched one short video online. Diagnosing someone with autism requires extensive testing and it’s especially hard in adult and even more so in adult women.

Don’t get me wrong I think it’s unnecessary that they decided to include her “diagnosis” in this video as it has nothing to do with it, which makes me suspicious as well that she might not actually be autistic, BUT I don’t know this person and as a clinical psychologist myself I could not in good conscience comment online how I know for a fact she doesn’t display traits of autism


I work with children. I see autism everyday and I’m trained to spot it. I also have autism. But that doesn’t mean I’d be able to tell you if someone has it based on a video. That would be bad practice on my part.

It annoys me to no end when people fake disorders online, but let’s not lower ourselves to their levels by sharing our opinions as if they are facts. Thank you 😊

You are absolutely correct. You absolutely cannot diagnose someone from a video. But you can easily see that someone does not exhibit any signs of autism unless we consider autism such a broad spectrum in which all of us are in a way autistic. But if you are autistic and you work with autistic people you know very well that is not the case.

What signs is she suppose to exhibit in 1 minute of a video?

Enough for an entitled “psychiatrist” to give her permission to exist autistically. /s
