People aren’t necessarily servants whom are on the spectrum, if that is what you are thinking. The spectrum is large.
I’ve see that mental health professionals like to lump Autism Spectrum with AdHD. I know a person with Adhd really well and they don’t have autism. I also know someone really well on the Autism Spectrum and they don’t have Adhd. I suppose that some people could deal with both.
I’ve heard it is more difficult to diagnose women and girls with Autism Spectrum Disorder do to what is called masking. Boys and men are not taught masking as is principally taught by mothers to their daughters.
A principal sign someone is autistic is less developed social skills. Another sign is being overwhelmed by social interaction, females commonly shut down for a time while males commonly get irritable and loud. Triggers can be smells, noises, touch, temperature, colors or a mix.
Educational psychology says ‘everyone eats’. Meaning therapy can address escapism, attention, tangibles and sensations. Autism spectrum people tend to love escape and hate sensations. Eye contact early on is something people with autism are poor at as well as focusing. However, focusing becomes something those on the autism spectrum are great at, and eye contact often improves with high functioning autism. Summoning the appropriate amount of sympathy and empathy is also difficult for most people whom are neurodivergent. Logic is easier most people on the spectrum.
Adhd people have a difficult time focusing And being still is difficult for people with ADHD. School tasks are difficult for
People with Adhd.
