MY YOU TUBE CHANNEL (MADAM LAILA'S CHANNEL)

 To my dear followers,

It has been a long time since I last jotted down something on my blog. I was so busy with my career as a lecturer and juggling between my work-life balance and as a caregiver for both my Autism children Iman and Irfan. 

Iman is already 18 this year and Irfan is already 15. Life becomes more challenging nowadays. I am already 50 this year, with my health complications along the way. Besides all this challenges,  I finally found myself being diagnosed with ADULT ADHD. Now I understand why God is sending these 2 boys to me. To tell me that I myself am actually an adult ADHD. No wonder both my boys is ADHD too.

Throughout my life, there were a series of stress and depressions, I always experience Angina (chest pain) and difficulty in breathing when I was so stressed or upset. I didn't know that these were among the criteria of anxiety. Forgetfulness, no focus, couldn't cope with job tasks, and having problems with my social interactions with people around me brings me to some "inquiries".  I went to see a few counselors and psychologists. Eventually, I was diagnosed with adult ADHD at the age of 49 which was last year.

Over my concern to adult ADHD issues and how they are struggling to cope up with their life, I initiated my own YouTube Channel called MADAM LAILA'S CHANNEL to increase public awareness of ADHD and what happens to untreated ADHD people in their later lives. 

This is the link to my Channel. Please listen to my videos, but prior to that, I would like to apologize for having most videos in the Malay Language. This is because I'm targeting my audience from my own country and I use Malay to make sure they got the messages I want to deliver to them.

Please watch this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ya6old2lPFE&t=12s 

I do have some videos on my students' presentations. Also a few videos on my teaching on the subject of  Nutrition. Happy watching!

Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE my channel, like and share them with your acquaintances ya.

CABARAN SEBAGAI PENJAGA ANAK AUTISM SEMASA PKP

Kami ingin merakamkan setinggi-tinggi rasa penghargaan kepada Ketua Unit Perhubungan Korporat En. Saifulizan Sidek yang telah menjemput saya ke studio TV Al Hijrah pada 25 Jun 2020. Saya telah diundang ke studio TV114 ini untuk berkongsi pengalaman tentang cabaran menjaga anak-anak istimewa autism sepanjang tempoh PKP ini. Antara hasrat yang ingin saya sampaikan kepada pihak kerajaan dan individu yang prihatin terhadap anak-anak Autism semasa PKP ialah: 1. kelonggaran untuk keluar dari rumah sementelah anak-anak ini merasa "lemas" jika "dikurung" di rumah sepanjang masa. 2. pemakaian pelitup muka (mask) tidak perlulah diwajibkan untuk anak-anak istimewa terutama yang bukan hanya Autism malahan yang Hiperaktif (ADHD). Ini kerana anak saya Tajul Iman seringkali mencabutkan tali mask berkenaan. Ianya melibatkan kos juga buat orang seperti kami. Bagi yang ingin menyaksikan semula siaran tertunda bagi slot Assalammualaikum yang merupakan penampilan pertama saya ke stesen TV, anda boleh klik ke link ini ye: https://www.facebook.com/tvalhijrah114/videos/696819687550001/

Autistic needs to be understood & explored ..

Indeed .. these so-called autistic people need to be understood & explored .. there is a reason why God has brought them down among all of us ... their birth is not to be insulted, viewed as cynical or hurt ... thank you for being a true teacher, parents & the community ... be smart in the world of autism prudently .. InshaAllah is a great reward for all of us Sesungguhnya.. insan terpilih ini yg dipanggil autistic perlu difahami & diterokai.. ada sebab kenapa Allah turunkan mereka di kalangan kita semua..kelahiran mereka bukan untuk dihina, dipandang sinis atau disakiti... terima kasih tak terhingga kpd insan yg bernama guru sejati, ibu bapa & masyarakat..terokailah dunia autism dgn berhemah.. InsyaAllah ada ganjaran besar menanti kita semua

Tajul Iman cherishable memories at MAia UKM 2010

My son really enjoyed himself so much from the year 2009 - 2012. That was the time when the God let him to spend his sweet time at UKM Autism Lab until our Family's Tsunami took place in July, 9th 2012. That was his TERMINATION day from school. He regressed a lot. Until I had to say GOODBYE to my Phd in Food Science and Nutrition! I "redha" if the Phd is NOT mine but what I regret a lot is that I didn't do anything to FIGHT FOR HIS RIGHT for EDUCATION.

ANTTENDED JOHOR AUTISM INTERNATIONAL SUMMIT 2018
