Meltdowns?

This might be a stupid question but do all people living with autism have meltdowns in some form or another?

  • My son who just got diagnosed today doesn't particularly have many meltdowns (than usual toddler tantrums) or any particularly repeatative behaviour (eventhough the specialist team said his pacing & exploring around the assessment room was a bit repeatative)... he doesn't yet speak (than few occasional words) at 3 & has issues with eye contact & social interaction
