Celebrities with Autism Spectrum Disorder!
As many know, autism is the develop function in age appropriate abilities in social interaction, communication, and repetitive, restricted, or stereotypic behavior (e.g. rocking back and forth).
On the other hand, autism spectrum is a milder form of autism, which is less severe than being autistic. ASD occurs in 1 in 68 children, which affects more boys than girls. Much like autism, many people with autism spectrum are sensitive to sensation, which means they usually dislike to be touch, even by friends and family. Autism spectrum has cases of it being comorbid with learning disabilities, depression, some levels of mental retardation, intellectual disabilities, ADHD, seizure, epilepsy, and anxiety disorders.
It is said babies born to older parents are more likely to develop ASD. Early diagnosis is key in helping children deal with their struggles with speech and communication. The sooner parents find out their children have ASD, the better it will be for them to address the issue a lot sooner. Doctors are usually able to diagnose toddlers who are four years old. However, parents are welcome to see doctors if they suspect their kids are displaying ASD traits before the age of 4.
Asperger syndrome is a form of autism spectrum disorder, which is characterized in difficulty in social interaction, nonverbal communication, and clumsiness. The difference between Asperger and autism are cognitive development and linguistic. However, Asperger syndrome was removed from the new DSM V manual, which was replaced with Autism Spectrum as the dominant disorder.
