As an autist I don’t experiment sounds like non autists because they can filter and I can’t.

The video is a perfect example of how I AM experiencing sounds, and I’m sure it’s the same for many others of us. (However, some sounds mentioned in it, the sounds of the street, are missing).

The video is also a perfect example on how music in background (only at the beginning) makes difficult for me to focus on what someone is saying.

Be careful fellow autistic if you watch it with sound on.
(The video has closed captions).
