“It’s not
your fault,” explained Chelsea
What is autism? Autism is a development disorder
that some people are born with. It is not a disease that you can catch or
pass on to somebody. It affects the brain and social skills such as
communication and interacting with others.
As a result, autistic people are slow at developing
language, instead, preferring to spend time alone and not showing interest in
making friends. Another symptom of autism is what experts call “sensory
overload.” Sounds seem louder, lights, brighter and smells, stronger.
However, not all autistic people are retarded mentally. There are some with
average or high intelligence.
Autism is not
treated like a conventional disease even though medication may be prescribed
to control certain symptoms like aggressive behaviour or attention problems.
People with autism are taught skills that will help them do things that are
difficult for them. The best time to get treatment is when they are very young,
as soon as they are diagnosed. This is usually around the ages of one and a
half to four. The most effective form of treatment is however, special
educational programs that are tailored to the child’s individual needs. The
programs involve breaking down barriers to communication using pictures or
sign language. Basic language skills such as how to cross a street safely or
asking for directions are taught. Treatment might also be a combination of
therapies such as speech, physical, musical, occupational, hearing or visual
therapies. Sometimes, changes in diet and medication may be necessary.
By the time
they reach their teens, people with autism may be attending regular classes
with normal people or attending special classes because of behavioural
problems. As’ teenagers, they may interact with others quite differently
because their brains process information differently. As a result, they can
have trouble talking properly and use gestures instead of words. Some are
withdrawn; do not make friends easily and do not react to social cues like a
smile or scowl. They often do not make eye contact when you talk to them.
Hence, they may find it hard to join a group or an activity. Besides, they
might draw back when hugged or they may be startled by a sudden noise.
As teens,
they can also show extremes of behaviour. Some are passive and withdrawn
while others are overactive, show tantrums or act aggressively when they are
frustrated. This is part of the disorder. Many of them have intellectual
limitations and learning problems. They do not know how to express emotions
like anger or frustration in acceptable ways, so they are often
misunderstood. They have difficult coping with changes and get anxious if
their daily routine is changed. In some cases, they might show repetitive
motions like rocking or flapping their hands. Although they can feel
emotions, they do not express them in the same way as others. As a result,
they often come across as cold or unemotional.. Autistic people need a lot of
patience and understanding and support from the people around them. This is
because they cannot be expected to behave in the same way as normal people.
