Pop it in the comment down below.
I'd love to hear from you.
I read and respond to every single comment.
That'd be super awesome.
Okay.
So the first one I'm going to talk about here.
The first autism treatment is counseling.
Now one I'm on counseling or group therapy is an excellent way to overcome
certain condition anxieties and certain social anxieties, because I found that
counseling is highly effective for me personally, because it's a way of me.
Kind of like explaining my issues and it's self exploration.
And I think that's the most interesting thing about psychotherapy, but there
is a caveat here that are different types of counseling therapies.
You can have group therapies, which I wasn't really a massive fan of.
You can have one on one therapy, which I think worked really, really well.
My favorite one by far.
Is an internet therapy.
So you go, you do like a one on one session, but over the internet using,
uh, I use an app called better help.
And I have a link for that in description below.
If you wanna check it out, it's amazing because you can just schedule
your, um, counselor on, on the app.
And then you can just literally sit on your sofa for, or lay in bed and
talk to your counselor and just have a counseling session on the phone, on video,
on chat, whatever you feel good with.
And I think that that is really interesting.
And I believe that everybody can benefit from counseling, not just people on
the autism spectrum, but I feel like.
It is a rock solid way to move forward with confidence and awesomeness
within an autism spectrum condition.
So I highly recommend checking out a better help actually with the link
in the description below, but using counseling as like your number one
resource, like sign up for it asap, you'll be amazed at how good counseling is.
Okay.
So the next one is a treatment that I had, which was.
Put forward when I got my diagnosis, my psychiatrist put me on for this treatment
and this one is psychological intervention and it was quite an interesting way.
It was a really good way to learn things about yourself.
So basically I sat down with a, um, a psycho, a psychologist and a
psychologist kind of helped explore certain behaviors that I did.
So, yeah.
We were talking about the way that I interact with my, um, you know, my
girlfriend's family going around dinner table and a ways in etiquette of being
around a dinner table and ways and understanding how other people think,
because one of the issues that people on the autism spectrum do have is that
it's hard to put yourself in someone els's shoes and see something from their
perspective, because you have no relevance of reference to understand what they mean.
So the psychologist for a psychological intervention . Went through and, and
kind of had like a, uh, Almost like a mediation with myself about things that
I was doing, kind of, maybe not so good, but things that I could just improve
on and let me just small a little bit.
And those little bits were just super awesome.
And I think that psychological intervention was definitely one of the
main things that helped me kind of lift up my, um, my self esteem a little bit,
because you feel kind of a little bit like, you know, you're a bit of a loser
like, Oh, you know, I do all these things.
I do all these things wrong and blah, blah, blah.
And then you kind of.
You know, I can be a bit wow is me from time to time, but that's
psychological intervention.
And I think that, like, it has really good benefits for mental
health capabilities as well.
So definitely check that out.
Considering one out of every three people on the autism spectrum have
a mental health condition as well.
Uh, I think that psychological intervention can help all around the
board really, really interesting.
Okay, so number three, like the third one I'm gonna talk about
here is occupational therapy.
Oh my goodness, guys.
This is amazing.
Now I had occupational therapy for sensory processing disorder,
sensory processing disorder or SPD is something that comes comorbid.
or co occurring with autism and it's where you have issues with sensory input.
It could be, um, issues with, uh, heat sound, smell, touch, um,
lights can be anything, right?
Yeah.
And I have occupational therapy specifically for that.
So occupational therapy is for specific areas and you see an occupational
therapist for specific areas of issues.
Now I went through a, an autism organization to go and see an
autism therapy, uh, occupational therapist, specifically for ASD.
SPD, we're going to sell it as long things to say.
And it was amazing.
We did this thing called the sensory diet, which I am doing a video on where
I'm going to be doing a week on the sensory diet to show you guys exactly
what I mean and do like a whole week.
And it's going to be a really great video.
But the most important part was the fascination they took away from it.
It was almost, it was perfect.
It was the most fine detail.
Fine tuned specifics about one area of autism, which is amazing.
Cause people have like blanket therapies.
Oh, we'll just do all autism today.
But yeah.
autism comes with a whole host of stuff, social anxiety, anxiety.
So sensory processing disorder, selective mutism, sleep issues, you know, and
to have some focus just on like, um, uh, one area like sensory processing
disorder was just to me, something, I just, it was just incredible.
So either recommend checking out occupational therapy.
I know those people actually have occupational therapy and
get great benefit from it.
So I would highly recommend.
Checking occupational therapy as I go to source.
Okay.
So number four is sensory therapy.
Now there are different types of essentially therapy that you can use,
like fidget gadgets, or you can actually create sensory rooms with like bubble
lights and lava lamps and good lighting and fiber optic lights and things like
that because it calms you down and it kind of relaxes and comes, calms the
minds of people on the autism spectrum.
Now relaxation therapy is basically what sensory therapy
is and it's creating a sensory.
Therapeutic environment that you can then relax and escape into like a
comfy chair, a comfy bed and, uh, you know, fidget stuff and sensory pleasing
things like, uh, sensory toys and such.
We catch it's all those kinds of things because like fish
tanks are sensory therapy.
A big fan sensory therapy tanks.
If you think about it in that way, it's because those things are
relaxing and relaxing to watch and the calming, and there's no noise.
It's not distractions.
It's just you relaxing and it's needed people in the autism spectrum
definitely need to have more relaxed minds because our minds
are going a thousand miles an hour.
Nobody knows what on earth is going on.
And we never take time to go, okay, I need to breathe.
I need to breathe from my mind.
So.
That is something I highly, highly recommend.
And I highly recommend checking out because it was
one thing that I did recently.
And it's something that I've never done before that.
And I was just like, wow.
You know, that is just doing something amazing things.
So I highly recommend checking that out.
Yeah.
Definitely do it sensory therapy.
Super dope.
Okay.
So number five is a really interesting one.
It's kind of like a new wave thing.
Um, and yeah, it's bizarre.
I actually got accustomed to this one because I went to do a
keynote talk at an expo for autism and autism business industry.
Um, there was a therapist from this specific therapy then, which
I'll talk about in a second.
And then they said, Hey, you wanna test out the equipment?
I said, okay.
So I tested it out.
And I was like, well, This is dope.
So this one is acoustic vibration therapy, right?
And the acoustic sound vibration therapy.
And what they do is they have like this bed, which the pump sounds
into, and the sounds kind of vibrate the bed in a certain way.
So it's kind of almost like, um, it's like a wave rather than just something.
Vibrating, you know, this thing is like a wave that kind of
vibrate and it pulses and stuff.
And then they set it up in a room which has got like really cool lighting and
like cool, something cool and tally.
Like it could be the sea or like bubbles and stuff.
And it will really cool.
This thing is so relaxing that I was fell asleep when I did it.
But it kind of vibrates your whole body.
I can't, there's no way of explaining it until you actually sit on these beds
and they actually do chairs as well.
I sat in an armchair one recently and they, Oh, I did the same thing.
. And you have like a controller in your hand and you kind of like,
just like turn the controller up to whatever setting you want, if you want
like a wave or a pulse or whatever.
And I found it really, really helpful now that a bunch of different ones
thought about, of this vibroacoustic therapy, um, that, that exists.
But I found one that was Chester and Wrexham here in the UK but I know for a
fact that it's an American thing because the woman who was showing me around said
that she has to do a training in United States of America because that's where the
beds come from and that's who started it.
So definitely check it out.
Vibroacoustic sound wave therapy for autism because they almost
specifically just cater for people on the spectrum, like the therapy rooms
or the literally just there forpeople on the specturm, I mean, anybody
can use it at the end of the day.
But it seems to be people who are on the autism spectrum of an autism
spectrum disorder who are getting the most benefit out of that.
therapy, because it's very interesting.
I'll try and leave a link for the calmer one, which camera's on K
a R a M a karma, K a R M a comma.
Uh, because they were the ones that I tried out and I, you
know, it's tried and tested.
I know that they were good.
And so I'll try and leave a link for their Facebook page in the comments
down below on the description, just so that you guys can definitely
check that out because I feel like it's a really good one to check out.
