The face of autism Here's the story -- well, the first five years -- in the life of Quinn: a wonderful, exuberant, mostly non-verbal boy with autism. You can see how the signs appeared over time, even before his diagnosis was made at 21 months. *** Teachers/schools/community service groups: You may use this video as part of autism awareness or positive educational training. No additional permission is required. (I can provide a higher-resolution version if needed.) NOTE: Unfortunately, I no longer have the faceautism.org domain name mentioned in the video -- so I have no idea what might end up on there. Sorry.

Robert Kennedy on the Vaccine Autism Coverup Robert Kennedy talks about the cover up regarding vaccines and Autism. In June 2000, a group of top government scientists and health officials gathered for a meeting at the isolated Simpsonwood conference center in Norcross, Georgia. Convened by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the meeting was held at this Methodist retreat center, nestled in wooded farmland next to the Chattahoochee River, to ensure complete secrecy. The agency had issued no public announcement of the session -- only private invitations to fifty-two attendees. There were high-level officials from the CDC and the Food and Drug Administration, the top vaccine specialist from the World Health Organization in Geneva and representatives of every major vaccine manufacturer, including GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, Wyeth and Aventis Pasteur. All of the scientific data under discussion, CDC officials repeatedly reminded the participants, was strictly "embargoed." There would be no making photocopies of documents, no taking papers with them when they left. The federal officials and industry representatives had assembled to discuss a disturbing new study that raised alarming questions about the safety of a host of common childhood vaccines administered to infants and young children. According to a CDC epidemiologist named Tom Verstraeten, who had analyzed the agency's massive database containing the medical records of 100,000 children, a mercury-based preservative in the vaccines -- thimerosal -- appeared to be responsible for a dramatic increase in autism and a host of other neurological disorders among children. "I was actually stunned by what I saw," Verstraeten told those assembled at Simpsonwood, citing the staggering number of earlier studies that indicate a link between thimerosal and speech delays, attention-deficit disorder, hyperactivity and autism. Since 1991, when the CDC and the FDA had recommended that three additional vaccines laced with the preservative be given to extremely young infants -- in one case, within hours of birth -- the estimated number of cases of autism had increased fifteenfold, from one in every 2,500 children to one in 166 children.

Autism - Repetitive Behaviors Like Rocking and Flapping Video featured in Wired Magazine Stress and how we as humans deal with it is the subject of this video. I believe neurotypical people can sometimes misinterpret an emotion such as stress when viewing the behaviors of autistic people like me and others. Every human experiences stress. Part of our shared experience is the emotion of stress (fight or flight). Whenever we feel we are being judged, we feel stress. Have you ever experienced the stress to perform or live up to an "image" in your life? If so, you have something in common with autistic people. Most people experience stress in their lives to perform under pressure, whether it is in your job or with your spouse or family. Both autistic people and "normal" people experience stress and pressure. However, stress can manifest itself in autistic people in ways that are misunderstood by so called "normal" people. When both autistic and "normal" people experience stress, it often manifests itself physcially in what is psychiatrically called "repetitive behaviors". So called "normal" people exhibit stress with repetitive behaviors just like autistic people. However, their repetitive behaviors are considereed socially "appropriate" and are not subject to judgement. Neurotypical repetitive behaviors are considered "normal" or in the mainstream. No one would consider that they need to be modified or "cured". However, for autistic people, because our stress coping mechanisms are different, such as rocking and flapping, have very different consequences than a neurotypical's stress coping "behavior". Our stress coping mechanisms such as rocking and flapping can get us institutionalized, put in self contained classrooms as children and abused like lab monkeys by our own family because they believe they are being helpful to us and benevolent. We are subject to the same type of behavior modification used with animals such as those you see at Sea World. Our stress reducing mechanisms such as ROCKING, and flapping are medicalized and called stereotypical movement disorders. We are told that they are compulsive, repetitive and "non-functional" behavior. All because they are deemed so by people that are neurotypical. However, one of us (autistic) has been very successful despite being labled Rain man, wierd, asocial etc. by society (google Bill Gates and rocking to see what I mean). Bill is an autistic in hiding. Despite being the richest man in the world, he still must feel the stigma of being labeled as someone abnormal. I feel sorry for him in this respect, but along with great wealth comes great responsibility and it is about time that he step up to it.

Mother's view on Autism This video is my view on the world of autism and how we should accept autistics without wanting them to change. They deserve dignity within whom they are. There is NO cure for autism, so if you have an autistic loved one in your life, just enjoy them for who they are. Let them become the person that they are to be without trying to change or cure them. Trying to cure them is damaging to them and those in their lives. It doesn't work and is a waste of time. The only thing that you can do is give them love, support, and guidance. Just love them and don't get stressed with having them in your life. Tags: autism aspergers |
