Autism is classed as a hidden or invisible disability, which means that it isn’t always easy to see as it isn’t presented in any physical attributes... well any that you don’t automatically notice.

Autism can present visual clues as to if someone is on the spectrum, so here are 5 simple always you can identify Autism easily.

Use these physical attributes to notice autism in a person, so you know how to help them

1.Rocking (stims)
People on the autism spectrum will sometimes rock from side to side or back and forth. This is a process called stimming which is a calming self soothing repetitive behaviour that the autistic person will find comfortable.

2.Hand Flapping (stims)
Autistic people will potentially flap their hands up and down. This is a process called stimming which is a calming self soothing repetitive behaviour that the autistic person will find comfortable.

3.Eye Contact
Eye contact is extremely difficult for people on the autism spectrum to create and maintain. It is probably the no.1 giveaway to notice that someone is autistic.

4.Anxiety
With autism comes Anxiety, not just general anxiety or GAD, it has a bulk of social anxiety that comes co-occurring with the condition and is noticeable, as if it is agoraphobia.

5.Zoning Out
Autistic individuals will have a extreme hyper focus on things that are informs of them that take their interest. This from an outside viewpoint looks like the person is zoning out of reality. However, in fact they are zoning into something on a focused level.

My mother was good at making me stop rocking or fidgeting in any way she could see. I had a meltdown a few months back and when I let him my husband snuggled me and started rocking us. Omg it was dual stimming and oxytocin is awesome. It feels natural to rock when I'm getting stressed. I still look to see if people notice.

5 signs (list starts at 4:30);
1) rocking/stemming
2) hand flapping/flopping
3) eye contact
4) anxiety
5) zoning out

I am not autistic, but my best friend is. I enjoy watching these so i can be a better friend and understand. Been best friends for nearly 15 years and she is just finding out she is autistic. I picked up on most of this without knowing she was on the spectrum. Understanding in this way has really helped our friendship and I love that she feels comfortable to remove her mask around me.

[delilahhart]

I had two co-workers who guessed I was autistic before I was even diagnosed, because I have a tendency to zone out A LOT. One of them had an autistic son and the other had an autistic nephew, and they recognized some of the traits.

[Triciatly]

One type of anxiety that is often overlooked is sensory anxiety. It’s anxiety caused by the pain of sensory overload that we experience a lot.

[KetsuekiRose]

I like to say that we flap because we lack tails to wag, and if someone mentions my lack of eye contact I say I'd rather listen to their words than their eyes. Also sensory discrepancy: harder to define but we each have some senses which are hyper- and some that are hypo. We'll both at once, but for each of us it'll be different senses which are strong/weak.

I was diagnosed autistic six days ago (after a two and a half years waiting list) at 47 years old. My understanding of what autism is was so off I didn’t know who I was until I started to research.
I’m incredibly good at building rapport with people because I parrot them! Something I can’t keep up indefinitely so never ends well. But mirroring and masking are a huge part of being female and autistic. And why we fall through the net when it comes to being diagnosed.

[boog.]

My son was diagnosed as severely autistic 27 years ago. He never did rock or hand-flap. He does eye contact but not as much as some of us. He might zone out a bit & certain things cause a bit of anxiety but rarely. He has a great sense of humor and loves being around people, but doesn't always understand social clues. I feel so blessed & wouldn't trade him for the world. God bless you all

[priscillacriscitelli]

Rocking back and forth is actually backed up by neuroscience as well. The motion causes cerebrospinal fluid to wash over the brain, which has a calming effect.

I love your channel! I have Asperger's and the anxiety is tough. But, most specifically, the social anxiety is extremely hard for me to cope with. I was different as a child and I was bullied and teased mercilessly because of it. Unfortunately, that stuff can often follow a person for the rest of their lives and I can say that from experience. The fear of being bullied, the low self-esteem, the hyper vigilance is all still with me as an adult. When I'm in a social setting and the anxiety starts it grows in intensity until I'm out of the situation. The signs become painfully obvious and are almost impossible to cover up. I tremble - not just my hands but my entire body will tremble to the point where my legs are noticably shaking. I have a hard time breathing so it's hard to get the words out when I try to talk. My eyes have always been expressive of whatever I'm feeling and I know that people can see the fear in my eyes despite my efforts to hide it. People can be cruel. Even adults treat people who are different poorly.
Thank you for mentioning it. I don't feel so alone.

I learned to make eye contact through being screamed at repeatedly to "look in my eyes when I talk to you" while simultaneously being slapped hard on my face and side of my head over and over and then over and over again. I learned to ALWAYS keep aware on some level of the voices of others or be smacked around for ignoring them. And each "undesired behavior" was severely punished. My autistic daughters tell me it's not like that anymore and I am allowed to unmask. Even if I believed that (which I don't) I wouldn't know how. I require MASSIVE amounts of alone time to recharge which is difficult for my wife I'm sure. I'm not looking for sympathy from anyone, I don't want it even if offered. I'm just telling my story to my people and maybe it will encourage someone struggling to know they are capable of more than they realize, are stronger than they realize.💪 I hope 🙏most of you never experienced anything like that but I highly doubt 😒 I was the only autistic to be "trained to behave properly" using this method. 😟 Anyway, stay strong, you got this.

Also, good video brother. Last video of yours I saw was 10 signs you might be autistic or something similar. In that video you said wearing the same rotation of clothes but your gf was helping to mix it up and eating a sandwich without sauces. Yeah, just like me. That was a long time ago. You have developed a much better stage presence. Well done 👍😊 I'm still working on mine. Great video. 😀

I am 68 and just forced into retirement as a nurse because of falls. As I was filing away that paperwork, I reviewed a “write-up”, one of the issues that I was required to correct was “consistently make eye contact”. Although I blamed my life long history of falls with the need to constantly look at the floor, I am starting to suspect it may have also been an excuse to not HAVE to make eye contact.

[innerstorm]

One characteristic that I've noticed are flushed cheeks, as if the person looks like they're blushing all the time. It happens to me when I have anxiety attacks, or when I'm talking about something I'm really passionate about.
And it has to do with blood sugar levels that tends to be an effect for people on the spectrum, as well as gastrointestinal issues

[anncat]

I started out with all of these but was punished for them at school, so taught myself to stop or mask everything at just age 3. Now I'm in my 30s, I rock all the time at home, music or not, I rock when I meditate too, it's a really nice experience. I'm not diagnosed but most of my friends are, and we have mutual understanding of our needs and behaviuors, subtle or not, and enjoy our shared experiences and shared understanding of them. It's a much safer space to live in than how I grew up. Awareness is everything <3

[ShadoeLandman]

As a woman, if I don't mask, people treat me like I'm insane. If I mask a little, I'm just rude, lazy, and weird. If I mask a lot, I'm uncanny and people will actively avoid me like I might be a serial killer or about to abduct their children. So I've learned not to try too hard 🥲😐 Either way, there are people who don't want to be anywhere near me long enough to even find out who I am.

Also, all visible triggers here are me except for the hand flapping. I stem a whole lot, but not that way.

[DaveTexas]

I think I had my "stimming" behavior trained out of me when I was little. I have vague memories of being told very often to sit still. I cannot sit still if I hear music, however. I physically can’t stop myself from moving in time with the music. I was born in the 1960s when most people knew very little about autism and I wasn’t diagnosed as being on the spectrum until I was 53, so my parents had no idea why I behaved the way I did. Other than the stimming thing, I fit the other three behaviors on your list completely.

Is an aversion to being touched a universal thing among people with ASD? I hate being touched. Always have. Hugs are extremely uncomfortable and I actually get anxious if I know I’m going to have to hug someone or even shake hands. Maybe that’s not true for everyone on the spectrum and therefore not a good indicator of whether someone has ASD, but it feels to me like it would be a good way to spot someone.

[Jen-CelticWarrior]

I rock back and forth, especially when I’m in church and standing. I used to wiggle my foot or bounce my leg, but that wasn’t so cool to do in a professional setting, so I learned to curl my toes repeatedly instead. And I HATE to do telephone calls. Because of my work, I had to train myself to maintain eye contact as a communication technique. By 3 pm, my brain was exhausted from working so hard on my social skills, and I wasn’t worth a hoot after that. Now, I just want to be a hermit.😄 Makes my extended family crazy!

[Trey_]

I force eye contact, and I hate it. The longest time I ever maintained eye contact was a good twelve seconds.
