So I was thinking. I was told it may be a good idea to make some videos about autism. I have a lot of experience with being treated poorly or even mentally abused by people who didn't understand autism. I've even been "restrained" as they call it, or as I call it, physical abuse. So here is my thought. Would it help anyone if I talked about these things, how I handled it, and how people reacted to how I handled it? I think maybe, it would do some good. Even if it only helps one person, it would be worth it. So if I do this, the videos would likely go up on my personal channel, not my gaming channel. This of course would be the one with my real name on it. Because if I want to help people, I feel like using any other channel would hide who I am, and I don't want to do that. So what do you think? Should I at least try? Would you watch such videos? Honestly, I've tossed this idea around in the past. But I never did it. Not yet, but maybe I will sometime soon. I know at least one person I my life who may like this idea, but I have not asked him about it yet. So I guess I will try it. Just want to see if anyone else has any interest in this. I know I have a lot I could talk about. I suppose I could try to explain what I learned from my experiences. I think that may help at least a few people.

Go for it.

There are certainly other people who have Youtube channels that are autism related. Some I like and others I find annoying so I don't watch them.

I've daydreamed myself about making a Youtube channel and posting my experiences and thoughts to the world. If I did it, I would want to go "all in" and have a steady stream of content rather than a one off here or there. I'd want to be committed to it and I don't have the time for that right now.
