I'm trying to get help finding a specialist or research center in regards to reversing an execuitive function disorder I was diagnosed with ADHD, but skipped further testing for Autism My learning disability limits me in communication and comprehension, I also have NVLD with aphantasia I figured out how to reverse the learning disability and can access my intrapersonal communication that allows me to think to myself, learn, recall memories and communicate on a very deep level I can finally feel emotions, read people, and communicate at length I'm trying to find a specialist in the southern California area, Ive exhausted myself trying to do this on my own Comment from : @907-q7u

I appreciate this so much it feels like there is finally someone I can relate to Comment from : @congresscal8617

I'm in this kinda space People's true intentions, and being able to hide them or not Theory of Mind is everything Comment from : @zer0creative930

I can definitely relate to having this along with ADHD for me I never accepted it I don’t have issues with communication as Abby does but I do have issues with math and science, takes me longer to understand the formulas that Comment from : @mzshanti2012

Thus sounds a lot like she was ashamed of her diagnosis and needed a deferent one Comment from : @spookyandy1

Did you have therapy and what therapy helped you? Comment from : @brittjuh729

She looks exactly like her dad Comment from : @kleash

This is my daughter! It’s been a very emotional and frustrating journey! I’m hoping we can get her the help she needs! I also question myself if I have the same thing! I’m 39 now and may get tested too Comment from : @tabithatierney6512

I am a developer and i have nvld it is possible Comment from : @johannnefdt5474

I'm going to be 25, in first grade I was diagnosed with ADHD (Here in the US, it's called an IEP in math and science) which I believe they misdiagnosed me saying that I did not have NVLD, this shockingly opened my eyes to get re-evaluated Thank you so much for sharing your story Seriously ❤ Comment from : @austinholmes6951

My story exactly it’s very hard for me Comment from : @jillianlamontagne7167

Excellent story Abby I have nonverbal learning disability as well and know exactly how it is My vocational high school quizzes and tests were a challenge no matter how much I studied Had to retake things so many times and if I was lucky I'd pass by the skin of my teeth the first time Had an IEP and that gave me a little more time on quizzes and tests that's it Plugged away 4 school years and couldn't be more proud to be a vocational high school grad Comment from : @NewEnglandPatriotsfan

interesting, I was under the impression, as apparently even lots of professionals are, that problems with interpreting nonverbal language was necessarily linked to ASD Good to know it's not the only thing that can cause that Comment from : @dma93-ch

I have NVLD too, diagnosed at seven! Comment from : @Lexibellington

I just got diagnosed with both :( Comment from : @loreing4583

I’m diagnosed with NVLD, ADHD, Dyscalculia and good ole anxiety and depression 🤪 Comment from : @anniehoneycomb7105

Ah I love this girl story Comment from : @stephanieharrigle6430

Hello from Mississauga Ontario My son was diagnosed with speech delay and other learning disabilities at age of 3 as well He is 7 and with the Covid situation And opting for online learning im not sure how I can help him Comment from : @basmaalhussaini131

this explains why psychologists thought I was autistic because I did use to talk before but at a certain point I stopped talking completely from ages 3-7 for so many years and now I talk fine Maybe it wasn’t my right time to talk yet I still get annoyed that I kept telling my family its a misdiagnosis because growing up I didn’t “act” autistic not even now I act that way, I think maybe I had anxiety which made me stop talking or some sort of nonverbal thing I had The autism thing always felt like a misdiagnosis to me Comment from : @melanievallejo

I’m an introvert with nvld, imagine how that works brbrbrbrI also have Anxiety, Dyslexia, and depression brbrbrNo, I’m not self diagnosed I have gone through the proper testing and everything I could get diagnosed till 2 nd grade though so I just thought I was stupid Comment from : @kaitlynnorris4975

before i watch the rest of the video i gotta say she gorgie lol Comment from : @pokemongurlz

Oh my gosh! The texting thing hit the nail on the head for me I have so much trouble inferring tone through a text message! So there have been many times I can't figure out if people are being sarcastic, saying something jokingly or being genuine Comment from : @maggiet644

Wow crazy, from the impression and nonverbal cues I could figure in the first 55 seconds nope that woman cant be aspergers or on the spectrum Also the language sounded to lets say "normal" But real doctors misdiagnosed? Hmm the criteria must have been old or it was bad timing Comment from : @seitapril2023offline

This is so beautiful I couldn’t relate more if I wanted to Thanks for sharing, Abby Please keep sharing your story and being awesome Best of luck on your journey! Comment from : @christina5289

Seems 💯 percent normal!! 😂 unless we all have this i never know the emotion when people are texting or talking 😒 Sometimes home environments can create people feeling “off” or different But for reals tho hecka normal!!!!!!!!! ? Comment from : @CourtneySmithA

Women tell me I come off as not confident It’s all part of my NVLD I wish people would just except my very kind and caring side of me and except I’m just a little weird in other ways, but they can’t I sometime just say things I shouldn’t say Comment from : @kb3gjp123

People with NVLD can read a whole book,but can not explain the main detail of the book Comment from : @kb3gjp123

The biggest problem with me is controlling my mouth I’m actually very good at texting,but sometimes on dates I talk to much and or I can’t hold a interview like date Comment from : @kb3gjp123

Also people with NVLD are naturally more attractive I been told by many women I’m very attractive When I talk to women on the phone they run after my caring and kind self witch is part of NVLD, but when I go on dates my mouth destroys the date I dont stop complaining etc I speak my mind I ruined dates with people that I was so attracted too Comment from : @kb3gjp123

You don’t have ADHD I have NVLD and people with NVLD are naturally hyper like myself, but at the same time I’m very organized Sometime medicine does not work to keep me calm Comment from : @kb3gjp123

I just got diagnosed with this lol Comment from : @bleedinggetsuga9583

I have NVLD/ADHD too! I love this video It is a real diagnosis and a real struggle, I hate that it isnt recognized in the DSM Im now in school to work with people with disabilities! Comment from : @meredithm1352

I am not sure what the difference between autism spectrum and NVLD Comment from : @illigirl768

I have been in living hell 55 full years of this since attempting recital 1964 withbrDance Class four years old and just brUnable to follow the steps and humiliation was my Mother’s response and that was only the beginning of HellbrI diagnosed this past year by two non related burp psych tests My horror isbrKnowing not in DSM ever ! So WRONG Comment from : @Blyss1000

I also have nvld The first person who tested me told my parents that I was just bored in class I didn't get diagnosed till I was 9 I'm glad there are others besides me with it and I'm not alone Also I got held back in kindergarten because I couldn't understand what was going on Comment from : @Irishlassie6789

This is literally my story Comment from : @mothermovementa

Thank you for helping to bring awareness to nld I was diagnosed when I was little and I have trouble putting my experience into words This video made me cry Hang in there Comment from : @randy685

I have NVLD to, but for me texting feels like a welcome relief from having to read body language, filling in awkward spaces in conversationsbrI also find starting conversations vary tricky so for me it’s nice to start with a text Although I have had the “are they mad or not” problem with texting Comment from : @jaspercasella8643

Same Comment from : @mothermovementa

I have nld I struggle not with non verbal movements from other people Instead I struggle with my own non verbal movements I'm the introverted version and I don't mean to stand far away from people and jump in fear when they brush up against me Learning to drive take driving lessons from a old pro It will save your life Learn how not to get lost by using anchor visuals like stores and malls to find your way Being aware and preparing beforehand for your possible errors is key And another thing learn numerology it gives meaning to numbers Comment from : @micks336

WOW, My daughter is 18 now but very low IQ this video shed light on the way I was thinking about how to help her Comment from : @msbrightside_

Hi Abby, I've noticed you live in the same area as me I'm in my 30's and I'd like to get diagnosed properly What tips do you have? Comment from : @blackrose5559

I've lived with nvld my whole life and I've always felt misunderstood Comment from : @SuperAceshigh

They say that when you have this disorder, you have trouble reading body language But is it possible that in some people, this manifest as an unawareness of the body language signals you yourself are giving off, instead? Comment from : @Melissa0774

Thank you! I have this too Your story is so helpful and inspiring Keep on doing what your doing😄❤️🦋🦋🌸🌈🌈🌈 Comment from : @sunflowerskies-

I plan on asking my doctor about thisI have Turners Syndrome and have researched about it and found the girls tend to have NVLD I have a feeling I do have itI’m kinda nervous I want to be a nurse and I always feel like I’m clumsy and in the way I can’t drive yet and panic with vague instruction I hope I can get some help if I do and feel more confident in my future Comment from : @bugga179

damn that really opened my eyes Comment from : @DjRiches

It's a DISABILITY Most with NVLD are unemployed or under employed Comment from : @googleruinedyoutube5512

I meant like nvld is not just a social problems Wouldnt also impact understanding academics Especially with subjects that involve visual spatial concepts such as geography Language arts wich involve understanding the overall big picture of a literary work or reading between the lines ( skills that use the right part of brain) understanding the pragmatics of language such as metaphores etc ( versus grammer and rules which apparently would be nvlders strenth since it is more rule based) i am surprised no nvld videos on you tube have coommented about academic struggles Comment from : @roseb2105

when I tried to learn piano I found it helpful to lable the notes with letters cde… the teacher must half thought I was crazy Comment from : @roseb2105

what about geography like space? time zones? Comment from : @roseb2105

how do does the subject language arts in school not be impacted by nvld? I mean the grammar should not be an issue beacuse nvlders tend to be good at language vocabulary and rules but reading between the lines in story or literary work understanding metaphors poetry getting into the authors mind and answering questions like why do you think the author wrote this how do you handle that in school? Comment from : @roseb2105

Hi I’ve been struggling with this for years People don’t understand what it’s like i fight it everyday I have to work extra hard as I am A carpenter I get soo depressed and I’m even a married man and no one understands the daily battle I play video games to calm myself I forget all the time aa d can’t even remember to lock my doors in the house I need help and I can’t find it It’s almost like people don’t care So I pretend that I’m just normal all the time I don’t like it and I don’t like people because their all about themselves mostly Comment from : @c4pt_underp4nts

I have NLD I also have 205 iq at the age of 14 Comment from : @strategymusic

Thank you so much for making a video about this Comment from : @larasef6667

Have you ever thought maybe there is a wide range of variability on the spectrum of "normal" Comment from : @mikegipson847

Oh my gosh i have both too! I haven't watched past the intro yet but i wanna tell you i am soo excited to👏💓 I just found out about this with myself i am almost 40 and im realizing i dont know anyone like me, this is such a relief It makes me feel whole somehow, and hopeful 🙏ty ! Comment from : @mjade1673

She could still be very well on the spectrum Psychologists mostly focus on the stereotypical manifestations of Autism Autism is very vast and wide in itself, and everyone is different, meaning each person experiences varying degrees of symptoms,or not many of the traditional symptoms of Autism at all It also manifests differently in girls and women, I believe she is on the spectrum, as well as having the learning disability that she does Comment from : @chrissame

Hi, thank you for sharing your story, it helps a lot of people to see that they are not alone there is a cure for that? something scientific or something that doctor is checking right now? it's interesting me because of the technology of today Comment from : @Freedom53807

I also have nvld and capd and a form of math dylexia and a language processing disorder i absolutely loved hearing your story loved this video! Comment from : @camrynhauler3660

Hello, I would like to say that it is nice to read the commentary of those who share the same disability as me Our disability is an issue that is not well known, and there is no one in the limelight who can represent us and bring those of us together to share information Hopefully more videos like this one are made in the future Comment from : @seanmurray757

I have this, and it's not that bad Comment from : @intheskatepark

I have a 9 year old daughter who is diagnosed with non verbal learning disorder symptoms How can I help her with her social skills? I live in Dubai Comment from : @rasgeet

I have NVLD too I was diagnosed when I was 17 Looking back on many moments in my life I found many times to be very frustrating including school and social situations Having poor depth perception was a huge problem for me, it made me clumsy and I would have a difficult time walking I would bump into people at times or walk to closely catching someone's shoe in front of me It was embarrassing to say the least Also with being able to read body language I have found it tough though ad I have gotten older I have invested time in learning about emotional intelligence and I have scored high on my level of emotional intelligence I have also taken several IQ tests and I fell in the range of having an IQ between 140-150 So if you have NVLD like myself know that I and others are out there looking out for each other I would be happy to share my experiences with anyone Comment from : @robertpinto9217
