/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

[Anonymous No.]

Three questions:
1. Are you autistic, or do you have good reason to believe you are autistic?
2. Do you think a significant amount of people in the VTuber community are autistic?
3. Do you think a significant amount of VTubers themselves are autistic?

Reminder that about 1% of the world population is estimated to have autism, so by "significant" I mean "more than 1%".

I think my social development is stunted. I am not retarded, I am normal. I tell people I am autistic and have trouble but they find out that im just a nervous shy disgusting piece of shit.

[Anonymous No.]

autism does not exist

[Anonymous No.]

1. No, because I have never been formally tested for autism. No, because again, I have never been formally tested for autism.
2. Significant? No. Maybe a higher percentage than many other communities? Possible.
3. No. Mainly because autism is almost completely nonexistent in women and they make up a grand majority of Vtubers.

I did the test and it shows I'm either a sociopath or very autistic. I like to think I'm the former.

Sometimes I wonder how many people who were diagnosed as autistic as adults just had their brains fucked by depression and poor recovery.

>Yes, ADHD as well
>Yeah
>Maybe a lot more than the normal amount idk

[Anonymous No.]

>Nah, I'm just a lazy POS I'm actually functioning
>Try niche JP culture, it's easier for loud voices to influence smaller audiences and that might inflate the perceived amount
>Nah, half of the job involves interaction with people

This is more autistic than saying you think you have autism.

[Anonymous No.]

>>13222692
Probably, and actually diagnosed ADHD
Probably more than average
Seems like a good motivation to be a vtuber instead of a regular streamer, so probably

Haruka confirmed she is autistic, to the point of being nonverbal at age 5

I would only call myself autistic if a licensed professional diagnosed me with autism.

[Anonymous No.]

how do I know if I'm actually autistic

[Anonymous No.]

>>13225751
I diagnose you with audism

[Anonymous No.]

>>13222692
More than 1%? Easy yes to 2 and 3 then. I think they're over 10% easily.

I myself have never been diagnosed with autism, but I suspect I have a mild case of it...

Been tested for autism and it's a no
Currently being diagnosed with ADHD instead but being labelled retarded as an adult is impossible in the UK
Despise the fact my parents thought i was just stupid instead of getting me tested

Unironically Kiara seems like a high functioning autist, most of the time normal but some cracks show themselves.

[Anonymous No.]

i think the entire fandom has fail AIDS, I definitely have fail AIDS, and every vtuber i don't like, which is all of them, has fail AIDS

[Anonymous No.]

I can totally see that being the case honestly

[Anonymous No.]

1. Yes and diagnosed (even went through stuff like speech therapy when I was younger)
2. No, maybe on twitter but I'd say those are a minority and don't make up the larger whole of the community.
3. Yes, at least most of the popular ones/holos. It's kind of obvious if you know the symptoms well enough, being a vtuber in the first place is unconventional so I'd say it's more likely among those who are actually one.

I would be surprised if she wasn't, literally shows textbook signs of autism sometimes

No; my brother seem to act autistically to the point of baffling me how his brain "functions" to the point that I think he's slightly on the spectrum and just undiagnosed, and my friends typically wonder what the hell is wrong with the rest of my family; but I'm completely fine, just have extreme depression and insanely obsessive tendencies over my oshi.
2. No. More than average but not a significant amount. Look at the speedrunning community if you want actual examples of a lot of autism.
3. No. More than average but not a significant amount. Afterall, they are entertainers who have to be adept at social interactions to actually, you know, be entertaining for the most part. Once again, look at the speedrunning community if you want lots of autism.

1- Yes
2- Yes
3- Yes but not as much as most think there are

[Anonymous No.]

1. No
2. Probably the same amount as the anime community
3. Probably

[Anonymous No.]

1. Probably, a lot of symptoms match but I already have some serious mental health problems so it has a higher chance to be one of those.
2. Yes.
3. Some might have like Kiara for example but it might be around 20% of them if we stretch it alot.
