Has the NAS carried out any research into what the most difficult and troublesome subjects are in secondary schools for students with ASD, and why?
I hated languages, literature and art.
Sports were an absolute nightmare. I did everything I could to avoid Sports. This caused me so many problems. Including, extreme stress and anxiety. Finally, at some point I was exempt from Sports. That was a huge relief.
My favorite subjects were Algebra, Geometry, History, IT, Geography, Chemistry, Astronomy and Biology.
Languages, Literature, Art and Sports caused me a lot of problems and headaches.
I was struggling so much with Literature, Art and Sports.
I have almost zero interest in sports now.
Then the horrors of school changing rooms... I only ever attended the rooms once and I refused ever to go to them.
