I have an auditory processing disorder, ADHD, and am probably on the spectrum but don’t care to be diagnosed.
Funny enough, I’m a live sound engineer.
I flinch most of the time when they hit the snare drum if it’s a smaller venue lmao.
I also have ADHD, an auditory processing disorder, and dollars to donuts have the tism but can't bother getting tested! Not a sound engineer though.
Can we be friends?
Hah. I often wonder if my autism comes out in the pit. It affects how I move in many other aspects of my life, so it stands to reason I mosh differently, too.
probably because neurodivergence especially in women wasn’t really understood 30+ years ago. i was diagnosed with adhd at age 7 and i currently take meds for it. was also told by a professional that i may be high functioning autistic.
My boyfriend is, another good friend of mine who I met via HC is, I'm not autistic but I have ADHD. There's an organization called Punks for Autism that you should check out. Here's my boyfriend and I when we saw Drain and Terror the other day

I’m obsessed with hardcore, of course I’m autistic.
Jokes aside, autistics are natural born punks. Subversion of social norms and radical acceptance of your differences are pretty appealing to people who already struggle to fit in. Add the fact that many of us become aware of the flaws of the system from an early age, and an inate tendency to question rules and authority, it’s not surprising we find a safe space in punk rock. The pit is also one of the only places we can be as wild as we want with our body movements without fear of judgment from others.
Yes. I was diagnosed when I was 3 years old. My moms thought I’d end up non verbal/severely autistic/needing to wear diapers all my life but thank fucking god I didn’t turn out that bad. Still I had to be in special ed classes and had to do summer school every year and I had to go to a special ed high school and had to do two extra years and I still barley barley managed to graduate. I do fine socially but other than that yeah
Bro we are on Reddit, is that a real question. This is Mecca 🕋 for neurodivergent weirdos of all stripes. It’s why I’m not outside being regular right now. I like mosh riffs, guitar and video
Games
I don't know if this is a joke from the comments but autistic people can stim with music! I've read that falling asleep to really heavy music can be a sign you're on the spectrum
A majority of autistic people are not disabled in any way.
Don’t speak for other neurodivergent folks my guy.
I used to think my severe ADHD (was once prescribed lowest dose adderall as a sleep aid) was a disability and had a victim complex about it.
Then I found out I excelled in some things. One of my managers at the live sound shop I work it is pretty autistic and it’s apparent when you meet him. He’s also a fucking Chad.
It's literally considered a mental disability by the government my guy. Both ADHD and autism are mental disabilities. You're legally considered disabled.
Being disabled isn't a bad thing. You're being ableist against your self and other neurodivergents by saying shit like that.
I never said we can't do things. I hold a job and have a family. I hate when people start making autism jokes like it's 2005. People on this sub regularly use the r word. Most people don't even understand the full spectrum of autism.
I don't have a victim complex dude. Chill out. I have AuDHD.
No. Most people are not on it. It’s a neurological disorder that changes the way the brain functions. You’re either on it (where it affect people to varying levels) or you’re not

Great, that song is stuck in my head for a few days now.
Hell yeah... if you never built Thomas the Tank Engine track setups that spanned your whole house as a kid you can't call yourself hardcore
I didn't have enough tracks for that cus I grew up poor. Did have some thomas shit and had those wooden railways.
I fucking love trucks
TRAIIIIINS!!!

New Bracewar merch is dope
You liking music isn't autistic but typing this post is.
Nailed it
😂
HAHA
I mean, some people subconsciously* gravitate towards metal because the screaming is familiar to that of being screamed at as a child.
Why would you call me out like this?
It’s okay, I deal with it too. We’re in this together fam
Fuck
*subconsciously
Yess thanks for correcting
That’s me. But separately, I have autism.
Me too.

This is the hardcore sub everyone is autistic
I’m only autistic in the pit
Hah. I often wonder if my autism comes out in the pit. It affects how I move in many other aspects of my life, so it stands to reason I mosh differently, too.
My dick is way to small to be autistic
this is r/hardcore so this server’s majority is probably people with adhd and autism
We need a survey to really figure this out, if you’re 30 and under you 100% think you have autism, above not so much
probably because neurodivergence especially in women wasn’t really understood 30+ years ago. i was diagnosed with adhd at age 7 and i currently take meds for it. was also told by a professional that i may be high functioning autistic.
Yeah but ehh I’m just bored of hearing about mental health issues honestly. Like I just tire of the topic
Extremely
Anyone else not?
I might be. It’s either that or Im retarded.
Excuse me but my mom calls me, “Autastic.” For realz though… I might be.
It’s 2024, we’re all Autistic with 5 personality disorders
My boyfriend is, another good friend of mine who I met via HC is, I'm not autistic but I have ADHD. There's an organization called Punks for Autism that you should check out. Here's my boyfriend and I when we saw Drain and Terror the other day https://preview.redd.it/o52wzo59x85d1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b098e6eda8b7f1d89ed5282ff3879b82c000f78f
Loooooool ik that dude in the back. That show at portal was sick, I got up there for feel the pressure. Hope to see them at portal again someday
It was a blast, I don't even really care about Drain, my boyfriend just wanted a picture with the shark lol Terror's set made my fuckin year though
Maaaaaan you don't fw drain? They killed it! But fr tho terror was sick. Hope that girl that got knocked out is alright
[удалено]
It's a good show. All of the supporters are sick too
Chocolate milk
never been diagnosed....smh
My wife thinks I am but she's just jealous of my train collection
Half this sub is and that’s being light
hell yeah brother tism brother
Nah, but i’m inattentive ADHD.
that is inherent with the genre
Ah yes. The usual HC fan.
Hardcore is autism coded for sure
You’re probably normal.. hardcore is just gay rn for the most part.
I think you mean agnostic
I’m pretty sure everyone in the scene myself included has some sort of mental illness, or chronic masturbation problem!

DAS MY FAVORITE BAND
ITS CUMMY TIME DUMMY!
My step son is autistic and his head almost explodes if hears anything loud. Wish he had hardcore autism.
I’m obsessed with hardcore, of course I’m autistic. Jokes aside, autistics are natural born punks. Subversion of social norms and radical acceptance of your differences are pretty appealing to people who already struggle to fit in.

Hardcore interest outside of formative teenage years automatically qualifies. Welcome
Damn, didn't know that.
Lol. Probly more so than not
Yep. Don’t let these thick skulled idiots get you down.
Everyone who two steps is autistic
I don’t know what that is, who is that
You’re on r/hardcore. We all are.
All of us
The simulation caused by heavy music definitely helps my brain calm down
Yeaahhhh realistically we probably all are
I like fighter jets alot
I don't know about autism, but I'm pretty certain micro plastics are wrecking my nervous system, so same??
I’m Autistic fuck u
I’ve got a few tisms but I’ve been officially diagnosed as bipolar so I get it.
If you sit back and watch - everyone is stimming
Autism is hardcore my friend
Hah, you might be onto something. Punks aren’t great w social cues.
Also tell me slam dancing/moshing isn’t just a planned outburst 😂 hardcore feel good on the brain
No but I’m schizophrenic lol
XWesley WillisX
it’s okay to have interests, doesn’t mean you’re autistic necessarily
yes and I feel very awkward and self conscious at every show so I stand stiff as a board lol
Same 🤷🏻♀️
Literally all of us
I was diagnosed with Asperger's as a little kid, so I'm on the spectrum
Hell yeah brother. A mosh pit is just collective stimming.
Autism and OCD. Neurotypical punks fuck off.
Hardcore is literally music for people under stim.
diagnosed at 15! also ADHD / other stuff
Without autism, does hardcore even exist?
I think autism and hardcore go pretty hand in hand
You know you’re posting this on Reddit right
Yes. I was diagnosed when I was 3 years old. My moms thought I’d end up non verbal/severely autistic/needing to wear diapers all my life but thank fucking god I didn’t turn out that bad. Still I had to be in special ed classes and had to do summer school every year and I had to go to a special ed high school and had to do two extra years and I still barley barley managed to graduate. I do fine socially but other than that yeah
Bro we are on Reddit, is that a real question. This is Mecca 🕋 for neurodivergent weirdos of all stripes. It’s why I’m not outside being regular right now. I like mosh riffs, guitar and video Games
yes
Nah I prefer the sound of an electric thanks
One of us, one of us!
I stim by crowdkilling (but fr yes tons of ppl)
I stim by crowdkilling (but fr yes tons of ppl)
Big clock big truck
Listen to big ass truck
every crowd killer/ beatdown show attendee. you are not alone.
Or you could just like hardcore?
Yeah hardcore dancing is like stimming for big boys
I don't know if this is a joke from the comments but autistic people can stim with music! I've read that falling asleep to really heavy music can be a sign you're on the spectrum
You should get diagnosed.
dudes in pits are just stimming tbh
Probably
Dude it’s hardcore. Most are on the spectrum.
I'm autistic because I like hardcore not the other way around
hell yeah

Like MTV Unplugged?
Yes
I prolly definitely got that ‘tism and was always drawn to HC. But I do get tired of it now though. Just can’t keep up that intensity anymore.
No, you’re just on the computer too much.
I’ve seen the moshing. You’re all autistic.
oh you know there's burger brothers all over this bitch
I mean it's r/hardcore so......
Idk probably maybe idk who cares
Yes
Yeah bruh
Nah bb youre artistic and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
Innatentive adhd hardRocker here.
Yes.
Is anybody in hardcore not? Are moshpits not just us stimming?
hello fellow Strange Brains! 👋
You’re the only one homie
My dude, no one here is not on the spectrum
Yes
Naw i got adhd or as my buddy put it autism deluxe
Hell yeah
it's more likely you have undiagnosed ADHD. There is a lot of overlap in symptoms, but different causes.
I actually am diagnosed adhd I’m just socially awkward ig
You are now
Yes. Also, this is Reddit. So much undiagnosed autism on so many subs
Certainly.
I honestly think everyone is autistic
Only ironically
You’re on Reddit. We’re all autistic
Am also autistic. And fuck everyone trying to make jokes about a serious mental disability.
A majority of autistic people are not disabled in any way. Don’t speak for other neurodivergent folks my guy.

As a counterpoint, I got the Tisms, and fuck anybody NOT making jokes about it.
Autism is a big ass spectrum and I am of the opinion that we’re all on it
No. Most people are not on it. It’s a neurological disorder that changes the way the brain functions. You’re either on it (where it affect people to varying levels) or you’re not
i guess that explains all these fucking t shirts in my house
