What is Autism to you?

Amy

Hello

I have High Functioning ASD and I am trying to write information about autism to use when I go on courses with cadets. As a part of this I need to explain what autism is-which is a lot harder to do than it sounds! Even just on this website their is a lot of information and I am really struggling to work out what is important? and what is most relevent and needs to be included? all while trying to make sure it is not too long so the people I show acually read it.

So, I want to ask. What is Autism to you?
Could you imagine you are talking (or typing online because you are and that is easier than talking) to a stranger who has neve heard of Autism. Ignoring any issues about beeing to scared of saying something what would you say?  They ask 
1)What is Autism?
2)How does it affect you?
Please can you write all this in a paragraph of 4-6 sentances (about the length of these paragraphs the exact lenght is not important though so do not worry about length) that answes these questions.  I am insterested in what information you think is important and that you include. 

Many Thanks
Amy

  • Autism is Sheldon of the big bang theory,, autism is social barriers, autism is thinking about thinking on subjects that no one is mainly interested in. Autism is a social innocence and wonderment of nature. Autism is a gift to the few for the few. Autism is pain. Autism is a cist in the heart which is too open. I am too alive. Autism is introverted and socially restricted. With Autism you never emotionally grow up, to cope fully. Autism is emotional hyper sensitive and hyper sensitive to the environment and less adaptable. Autism has loving eyes.
