Meeting with autism professionals and parents of autistic children in Kathmandu

0. Short point of view about autism


0.1. Summary by ChatGPT

The text discusses autism as a state of being in which individuals remain largely unaffected by the artificial and nonsensical aspects of modern society from the beginning of their lives.
They maintain their innate qualities such as innocence, sincerity, and kindness without distortion from societal norms.
Autistic individuals are not interested in societal conventions and feel that engaging with society further will compromise their authenticity.
Communication difficulties arise as a form of self-protection, and attempts to engage with society often involve emulation or simulation of normal behavior.
Autistic individuals experience sensory overload and aggression from societal inconsistencies, leading to frustration and isolation.
However, instead of addressing the root causes of their suffering, society often attempts to “cure” them, leading to further injustice and mistreatment.
The text highlights the lack of understanding and empathy from society, particularly from doctors who see autism as a psychological problem rather than a different way of experiencing the world.


0.2. Original text

This text was written as part of a preparatory reflection before a meeting with parents of autistic children in Kathmandu, Nepal, in May 2016.

What is called “autism” is the characteristic of the human beings strong enough to be, from the beginning of life, not influenced by the artificiality and nonsense of the current society.

They keep their potential unspoiled, especially at the neurological level, which allows them to keep a naturally high sensitivity, and the original qualities of every human being at the beginning of his life (innocence, sincerity, kindness …) without being distorted and perverted by the social environment and its stupid conventions.
They are, of course, not interested in the nonsense and concerns of today’s society, which is artificial and “lost”. And, secondly, they feel that the more they will be in contact with it, the more they will lose their authenticity and integrity, being “polluted” and “corrupt”, which is contrary to their essence.
That is why there is no desire to reach out to others, and that is why there are blockings in the communication, which are in fact a kind of “self-protection”.
When an autistic still communicates with this society, it is in an “emulation” mode, or “simulation of a normal person”, but keeping anyway their own personal referential and thought system, which explains misunderstandings and unsuitability.
We are constantly assaulted by all sorts of aggressions, that we feel through the neurological system (with the senses and the brain). These aggressions are coming almost always, from the others, from a society victim of its own system.
Consequently, we will be irritated, but not the other people, since, for them, the nonsense and inconsistencies are “normal” and since they are less sensitive, due to their formatting and their limitations, which makes that they don’t see anything of what we are seeing and which is aggressing us.
The irritation and the inability to communicate, to find solutions and a relief will inevitably, sooner or later, generate a nervous breakdown, and it is only at this time that the others will realize that there is a problem.
Given that they do not see the problems that we face, they think that the problem is internal to us, and they call it “troubles”.
Instead of providing solutions and accommodations to the things that make us suffer, and that they refuse to see because they are formatted by the “normalitaristic” majority system, they want to “cure” us, and then we suffer all kinds of injustices and nonsense treatments (such as forced hospitalization, medicines), not to mention, otherwise, bullying, exploitation, segregation, etc.
Then this makes us sad, depressed, embittered, desperate, sometimes suicidal, and more irritable and frustrated over the years.
Given that the doctors, who are formatted by the system to be doctors, do not understand anything in all that (apart from some rare exceptions), they see us as persons “having a psychological problem.”
And given that they see us as “sick”, and they consider themselves superior and allowed to take care of us, then they are not bothered by the fact that they do not understand us, and instead of questioning themselves and their inability to understand, they just think that they if do not understand us it’s simply because we have “a problem in the head”, which, in the best case, they call “autism”.

1. Meeting

1.0. Introduction

A banner in the AutismCare Nepal (ACN) building in Kathmandu.

Here is the audio recording of a discussion between parents of autistic children and Eric L. (autistic activist, founder of the Autistan Diplomatic Organization), at the headquarters of AutismCare Nepal Society, Kathmandu, on May 2nd 2016.
The meeting lasted more than 3h30.

The meeting room before it started

A sign-in sheet (“attendance sheet”) that began circulating around the table (there were at least twice as many people as listed)

The Autistan Diplomatic Organization was not mentioned in this meeting, as although the concept of Autistan already existed, the concept of a “Diplomatic Organization” only emerged a few months later in Kazakhstan.
However, explanatory meetings with parents of autistic children (and adults) around the world fall within the scope of our organization.

– (answer) “It is a very difficult part of life… (bad personal memories)”
– (precisions about the question) “When it is the time of puberty, what phases do they go through, and how can we help ?”
1:02:05 – (answer) “The teenager will be irritated mostly because he can’t be understood – usually we have explanations and justifications foe what we do, but it is ignored, blocked, not accepted by the others (“it is bad / it is wrong / you should not do that / you should do like everyone does…”) – they don’t believe us – even when they believe, they don’t care – there is the frustration about the primary problem, but also the frustration about the inability to communicate”
1:03:46 – (other questions from parents, rather similar – children unable to communicate – what are the problems that they face during adolescence – when the child gets aggressive, what should be done ?)
1:05:17 – (answer) Primary frustration (being blocked or annoyed), secondary frustration (unability to be understood) – the inconsistencies, things not logical, not fair – example of the irritation because a solar shower bag was not folded 3 times (to prevent leaks) – very important : the very high sensitivity to the injustices
1:08:11 – (जवाफ) प्राथमिक निराशाले (अवरुद्ध वा नाराज भइरहेको), माध्यमिक निराशाले (unability बुझेका गर्न) – को inconsistencies, कुरा तार्किक छैन, निष्पक्ष छैन – को जलन को उदाहरण एक सौर शवर झोला 3 पटक (को लिक रोक्न जोडेको थियो किनभने ) – धेरै महत्वपूर्ण: अन्याय गर्न धेरै उच्च संवेदनशीलता
1:09:47 – Things which are looking like very little details for you may be very important for us
1:10:03 – कुरा तपाईं को लागि धेरै सानो विवरण जस्तै देख रहे जो हाम्रो लागि धेरै महत्वपूर्ण हुन सक्छ
1:10:23 – The first inconsistency in this example
1:11:10 – यो उदाहरण पहिलो inconsistency
1:11:50 – The other inconsistency or unfair thing : the feeling of being not respected
1:12:47 – अन्य inconsistency वा अन्याय कुरा: सम्मान छैन भइरहेको को भावना
1:13:17 – There is also the question of the different referentials (the justifications, which are rarely analyzed or expressed)
1:14:49 – विभिन्न referentials (को justifications, शायद विश्लेषण वा व्यक्त जुन) को प्रश्न पनि छ
1:15:42 – Our irritations are always caused by neurological aggressions (sensory, or mental)
1:16:51 – हाम्रो irritations सधैं स्नायविक आक्रामकता कारण छन् (संवेदी, वा मानसिक)
1:17:15 – The different phases in what is called “troubles” : 1/ we receive an aggression (sensory or mental, or both)
1:18:21 – के भनिन्छ “समस्याहरूको” मा विभिन्न चरणहरु: 1 / हामी एक आक्रमण प्राप्त (संवेदी वा मानसिक, वा दुवै)
1:18:50 – (follow-up) We are the only ones seeing the problem, and of course we want to stop it, to find solutions
1:19:22 – (फलो-अप 1 / को) हामीले समस्या देखेर मात्र हुन्छन्, र पाठ्यक्रम हामी समाधान खोज्न, यसलाई बन्द गर्न चाहनुहुन्छ
1:19:58 – (live example with the door rarely closed) I can’t feel comfortable with the door open, because anyone can enter anytime, “in the middle of what I’m saying” and make me “lose the thread of my thought” – and many autistics would feel not respected or offended, with such situations (not being taken into account)
1:21:59 – “म भन्दै छु के को बीचमा” (शायद बन्द ढोका संग उदाहरण बाँच्न) म, खुला ढोका संग आराम महसुस गर्न सक्दैन कसैले कुनै पनि समयमा प्रविष्ट गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ किनभने, र मलाई “मेरो विचार को मुद्दा गुमाउन” बनाउन – र धेरै autistics महसुस सम्मान हुनेछ वा आहत, त्यस्तो परिस्थितिको (खातामा लिएको भइरहेको छैन)
1:23:01 – There is the “environmental problem” (uncomfortable open space), and the “social problem” (being not understood, feeling of being not respected, neglected…)
1:23:40 – त्यहाँ “पर्यावरण समस्या” (असहज खुला ठाउँ), र “सामाजिक समस्या” छ (भइरहेको बुझिएन, सम्मान छैन भइरहेको को भावना, उपेक्षित …)
1:24:10 – (this was the phase 1/)
– Phase 2/ : When you cannot fix the problem by yourself, then you have to ask to others, and then the problems are starting…
1:25:15 – (यो चरण 1 थियो /)
– चरण 2 /: जब तपाईं आफैलाई समस्या समाधान गर्न सक्दैन, त्यसपछि तपाईं अरूलाई सोध्नु छ, र त्यसपछि समस्या शुरू गर्दै छन् …
1:25:48 – The others (which can be the family) don’t understand the problem because they don’t FEEL it – if they were experiencing the problem themselves, they would already have taken measures to fix it
1:26:28 – तिनीहरूले पहिले नै यसलाई ठीक गर्न उपाय लिएको थियो, तिनीहरूले समस्या आफूलाई अनुभव थिए भने – अरूलाई (जो परिवार हुन सक्छ) समस्या बुझ्न तिनीहरूले महसुस किनभने गर्छन् छैन
1:26:52 – The new problem is that the others don’t believe you, or they think that you are exaggerating – therefore, they don’t want to cooperate, they will not help you – then you continue to suffer from the original problem, but now you suffer also from the denial of help – it is very frustrating, irritating, and sometimes saddening
1:27:48 – तपाईं त तपाईं मूल समस्या ग्रस्त जारी, तर अब – तिनीहरूले मदत गर्नेछ तपाईं, यसकारण तिनीहरू सहयोग गर्न चाहँदैनन् – नयाँ समस्या अरूलाई विश्वास नगर्नुहोस्, वा तिनीहरूले तपाईं exaggerating भन्ठान्छन् मद्दत को इन्कार देखि पनि ग्रस्त – यो धेरै, निराशा रिस, र कहिले काँही saddening छ
1:28:31 – You have the two problems (the sensory / physical one, and the “social” / injustice one) – you focus on the problems, then you feel the problems deeper – you have bad thoughts and memories about such problems – and then all this makes an enormous problem in the head
1:30:31 – तपाईं दुई समस्या (संवेदी / शारीरिक एक, र “सामाजिक” / अन्याय एक) छ – तपाईं यस्तो समस्या बारेमा खराब विचार र सम्झनाहरु छन् – – र त्यसपछि यो सबै बनाउँछ तपाईं समस्या ध्यान केन्द्रित, त तपाईं समस्या गहिरो महसुस टाउको मा एक भारी समस्या
1:32:05 – It is a vicious circle – my neurological mental system will be irritated, then I will feel more acutely the initial problem (sensory), and so on, it will grow and grow until an “explosion” (a crisis) which will come sooner or later
1:33:08 – यो एक भीषण सर्कल छ – मेरो स्नायविक मानसिक सिस्टम रिसले हुनेछ, त्यसपछि म प्रारम्भिक समस्या (संवेदी) महसुस हुनेछ थप acutely, र यति मा, यो बढ्न र बढ्नेछ एक “विस्फोट” सम्म (एक संकट) ढिलो हुनेछ जो वा पछि
1:33:55 – The crisis will come, and then the people will start to notice you – they don’t understand all the problems described above, and they see only the crisis – they will just make a relation between “aggressivity” (or shouting etc) with autism
1:34:47 – संकट आउनेछ, र त्यसपछि मानिसहरू याद गर्न सुरु हुनेछ – तिनीहरूले माथि वर्णन सबै समस्या बुझ्न र तिनीहरूले मात्र संकट देख्न – तिनीहरूले केवल “aggressivity” बीच एक सम्बन्ध गर्नेछ (वा कराउन आदि) Autism संग
1:35:24 – It would be good if you could analyse the situations (like I do) with your children, not with the light of the “normal system”
1:36:09 – तपाईं छैन “सामान्य सिस्टम” ज्योति संग, छोराछोरीलाई संग परिस्थिति विश्लेषण भने (म के जस्तै) यो राम्रो हुनेछ
1:36:45 – Try to understand the thoughts of your child, and allow him to try to explain, instead of condemning or reproaching immediately, otherwise he will not even bother to try – you have to be open and humble, and you will see that the situation is not what you thought at first
1:37:57 – खुला र नम्र हुन तपाईं-छ, र que ला स्थिति छैन देख्नु हुनेछ – आफ्नो बच्चा को विचार _him_ बुझ्न, र अनुमति अन्यथा त्यो पनि प्रयास गर्न चिन्ता छैन, बरु आलोचना वा तुरुन्तै समय reproaching को, व्याख्या गर्न प्रयास गर्ने प्रयास गर्नुहोस् के पहिलो तपाईं लाग्यो
1:38:42 – (question) “Can you explain more deeply about these situations” – (answer) “Yes, I can”
1:39:05 – (problem of the children who don’t talk) – Try to analyze with ALL the details and the history of the problem, and detect (like a police work) the little inconsistencies – Example of the folded blanket
1:41:07 – (कुरा नगर्ने को बच्चाहरु को समस्या) – सबै विवरण र समस्या को इतिहास संग विश्लेषण गर्न प्रयास गर्नुहोस्, र पत्ता लगाउन (जस्तै एक प्रहरी काम) साना inconsistencies – यो जोडेको कम्बल उदाहरण
1:42:40 – You have to look for the “environmental details” (like label itching, temperatures, colors etc.) and also for the “social details” (things that could be seen as unfair) – try to change or correct many things, until you find
1:44:07 – के तपाईं “पर्यावरण विवरण” को हेर्नु र aussi को “सामाजिक विवरण” को लागि (त्यो कुरा अन्याय रूपमा देख्न सकिएन) (खुजली, तापमान, रंग, आदि जस्तै लेबल) – सम्म, तपाईं फेला, उचित धेरै कुराहरू आदान प्रदान गर्न वा प्रयास
(cut)
1:45:25 – Example about the things that I have to glue, in order to prevent people from moving them – the most important is to try to adapt, to reach the kid – the environment is very important : no aggressions
1:47:24 – कुराहरू उदाहरण एम सार्दा देखि रोकथाम मान्छे रोक्न क्रममा गोंद गर्न, म-छ त्यो – सबैभन्दा महत्वपूर्ण बच्चाहरु पुग्न भिज्न, प्रयास छ – वातावरण धेरै महत्त्वपूर्ण कुरा, कुनै आक्रामकता छ
1:49:16 –
(someone answers “yes” by doing a sign with his head meaning “no” in the european culture, and “yes” in the nepalese culture, and it is very difficult to get used to this…)
