Viral Video Shows Service Dog Calming Human In Throes Of Asperger’s Meltdown

A video of a woman with Asperger’s having a meltdown and subsequently being comforted by a dog has gone viral.

Danielle Jacobs posted the video to YouTube, along with the following caption:

“This is what having aspergers is like. Please no negative comments this really happened and it’s not easy to open myself and share what it’s like on a daily basis. This is what’s considered a meltdown. Yes Samson is alerting. I trained him to alert to depressive episodes and self harm not both but he alerted. It appears the response is late but it’s actually supposed to be as I’m coming out of the meltdown as I tend to have a panic attack after.”
