Examples: of low functioning Autism.

 


As Autism is a big Spectrum it is uncertain that all if any is all correct as far as research is concerned.

 

People with all ages who face Autism face severe low functioning Autism and I guess high as well. People who face Autism Spectrum disorder are normally diagnosed if diagnosed as level 3 ASD. This means they are unable to live independent and they may need support but that just may or may not change, which may depend on the type of Autism they face.

 

Those who are able to live fairly independently may get a small amount of support in most areas, which brings them to level 2 high functioning Autism. People with low functioning Autism tend to face intellectual disabilities.

 

This form of Autism can make it hard for them to socialize and communicate nonverbal with others.  They tend to have certain treatments to try and help them to live a qualify of life but all the same still needing a fair amount of support. Therefore, they do not gain a lot of independents.

 

They can face other conditions such as Epilepsy, Tuberous Sclerosis, Fragile x Syndrome may other conditions or as well as.

 

According to my research, people facing low functioning lack social abilities, repetitive behaviours, and impairment communication skills.

It just gets is more confusing sorry to say as they face pronounced and severe to major problems on the Spectrum too, but this is probley not the case in everyone.

Those with low functioning have signs and stuffer from one or more forms of intelligence.

Research on Autism has increased in the last twenty years. They say there is 1 in 59 children in the U.S mostly face low functioning Autism. At least half are on the Autism Spectrum. Facing intellectual disabilities from mild to severe.

 

On the whole, it is hard to notice Autism in children until they are at least three. This could start from lack of social communication, interaction, the pattern of behaviours etc. They also include a limit of eye contact, lack of interests because they are mostly in their own world. Not forgetting lack of communication and understanding, not smiling a lot, hard to express empathy and emotion, upset by the change of route, OCD behaviour, lack of impulse control, not liking physical touch, self-injury, and headbanging.

Low functioning Autism is extraordinarily little signs of intellectual disability (ID) that doctors identify. This may include motor skills development, such as sitting up, crawling, walking difficulties etc; cleaning teeth, speaking, getting dressed etc as years go by.

 

From behaviour problems to having difficultly following rules etc.

According to the research I have found on the internet if you notice 2 or more signs of Autism in your child then it may be worth seeing your GP.  You may be asked a few questions about your child’s behaviour, on verbal and non-verbal communication.

Most people can be in between high and low functioning Autism, others may go from one to the other. There are so many questions to these researches, such as is one function for people’s strengths and other is people’s weaknesses? Who knows.

For example; who may have Asperger Syndrome who comes under high functioning because they go to college, and works, unknown to the difference whether they can only do a limit of things to a certain amount of hours or they could be in full-time study and employment with or without support on less hours or more, but they may face low functioning Autism where they don’t get any or enough support in-home skills such as cooking, cleaning and shopping, where they could be struggling.

 They are also facing major Anxiety and Depression. All this is because they are facing hidden disabilities and struggling to get the extra support they need. They could be facing high and low functioning. Doing well at work and college is high and struggling at home is low.

 

Autism is a spectrum, each person who faces it has degrees of AS which each person probley faces it in a different way.
