05.01.2022 Thanks to movies and the media we all think we know what Autism is. This is often stereotyped and not right! Not everyone with autism is the same. People with autism don’t all rock, or line things up, some can talk, others can’t, they have things they are good at, things they find difficult. They have different personalities, different likes and different dislikes. They have hopes and dreams and skills, just like everyone else. Autism is not the same for everyone or ever...y family. Someone with autism has differences in 3 key areas, but those differences can present in sooooo many different ways! Some examples can be: 1 Differences in Language: Can range from non speaking to highly verbose with an advanced vocabulary. It could be a child who speaks more similar to an adult than a child their age. It could be using words more repetitively than expected, or speaking in an unusual pitch or intonation patterns. It could be difficulty understanding jokes, idioms, or sarcasm. 2 Differences in socialization: Can range from preferring to be alone to being overly social. It could be oversharing of personal information or a lack of awareness or recognition of stranger danger. It could be avoiding eye contact or using intense eye contact. It could be needing people to say exactly what they mean rather than giving vague (socially accepted) hints. 3 Repetitive Thoughts/Actions: Can range from melting down with changes in routines to asking why? when unexpected changes occur. It could be having one area of intense interest to several areas of interest that could be considered age appropriate. Can look like a person has a large fact based knowledge. It may be a focus on details. It can be sensory differences of any kind. It could be flapping arms, lining up toys, finger or body posturing. It could be Sensory seeking: crashing into items, pushing heavy items, loves to be squeezed, enjoys weighted items, listening to sounds over and over, looking closely at items. Or Sensory avoidant: dislikes loud sounds, certain textures/foods, hair washing, teeth brushing, nails trimming, and so much more.
