I don't have any autistic friends

Hi :)

I'm autistic too, and I sympathise entirely- I've encountered so many people over the years who wanted to hurt me that sometimes I periodically gave up and stopped talking to everyone. 

I'm not good at meeting new people at all, despite trying really hard. Currently I have just 4 friends, all of the opposite gender, but only 2 really close ones. One of them is possibly autistic (though never told me if she is), and the other is most certainly not. 

Let me know if I can help with anything :)

My 5-year-old nephew, who is on the autism spectrum, has been struggling with severe sleep issues. Nights are difficult for him—he often lies awake for hours, restless and overwhelmed by the world around him. It’s heartbreaking to see him exhausted yet unable to find peace.

I wanted to do something, anything, to help. I started researching ways to create a calming environment, and that’s when I discovered the power of ASMR and soft, soothing visuals. Since I’ve always loved watercolor painting, I decided to combine the two and create something gentle and peaceful. I began making ASMR watercolor videos, hoping they could bring him a sense of calm.

To my surprise, it worked—at least a little. He started watching the videos before bed, and while it hasn’t completely solved his sleep problems, it helps him relax. That small improvement means the world to me. It made me realize that if these videos could bring even a little relief to him, maybe they could help others too.

That’s why I created my ASMR watercolor channel. My main goal is to provide a calming and supportive space, especially for people with special needs, including those on the spectrum. This mission is very important to me, and I truly want my videos to be as helpful as possible.

I really need to know if these videos are actually helpful for autistic individuals. Please check them out through this link: https://youtube.com/@whisperingpallette?si=DeTVuOtkB6ehrHvt and let me know what I can do to improve them to better support people on the spectrum. Your feedback would mean so much to me!
