Autism & Aphasia

Atypical

I wondered whether anyone had a view on how autism affects your ability to process information, particularly in the written form? For instance, I tend to mix words up in a sentence when reading and do not like numbers.

  • What you're describing doesn't sound like aphasia but more like dyslexia. To be diagnosed with aphasia one's language abilities need to be severely impaired following acquired brain injury (e.g., stroke) or have significant decline over a short time period (progressive aphasia).
