There is so much information to share on Autism, that I could not fit it all in one post, so this is a continuation of yesterdays. If you missed it, please check that as well.
Treatment for Autism is not something I can go into great detail here. There is no known cure for Autism, but there are many many treatments that are designed into assisting those with the disorder. Each case is quite unique therefore not all treatments will work with all cases. Treatments are something that a Dr. will have to assess with each patient and range from dietary changes, medications, to behavioral training. Just a quick search on treatments returned over 52 million results, so there are quite a number of pages on the subject via the web.
What does Autism look like? Like everyone else.
As you can see, there are many faces to Autism.
What can you do to help? The best thing you can do to help is to get informed and then pass it on. Just last night I came across a woman who was all upset because she had heard from her sons school that he may be Autistic and she had no clue what that meant. Even if you do not feel comfortable educating others, simply by having the resources for someone can make a huge difference so I will add links to some great places to get even more information.
