Interesting YouTube video on autism

I came across this YouTube video on autism that seemed somewhat more considered than most, discussing the extremely complex nature of autism and potential factors affecting its occurrence. It certainly debunks muc of the nonsense coming out of politicians, particularly in the US.

  • Very interesting video and informative!

    It shows how our understanding of autism and mental health really changed. Looks like there are so many autistic people becauseof two reasons - we learned better to spot autism and there are more people with this condition,  which is underdiagnosed, because of economics and limited access to professional help. This is also the case with ADHD.

    I found other one, it helped me a lot to differentiate which of my symptoms come from autism, which one from trauma
