"Why is there no medication to treat autism?
Although at any given time there are hundreds of ongoing clinical trials testing drugs to treat autism, there are many reasons why none have been proven effective. Autism is a heterogeneous disorder. It isn’t caused by a single factor like a bacteria or even a single gene. It’s a complex condition that has been linked to myriad genetic changes, as well as a variety of environmental factors. In addition, symptoms and the degree of their impact vary widely, giving rise to the now-famous quote, “If you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism.” "

being glued to my routine prevents me from going out with someone, because it feels bad, it’s not something that I do everyday so it feels not only uncomfortable, but also causes me anxiety, especially if I don’t know where we gonna go etc. I also take everything too seriously and have issues understanding when someone speaks seriously and when playfully or ironically etc. long time ago when one therapist told me I have depression, I got meds. I thought, that these meds will help me stop feeling inferior to others. Then I realised that I was actually born with this depression and there is no cure for that. Some time ago the word depression got replaced by autism, the others symptoms stay as they were, I was just informed that I don’t need any meds. On one hand good- I’m tired of side effects, on another hand it means I can’t actually change who I am. But the biggest problem is that I don’t even know if and into who I would like to change.
