The way I think of Autism.

 This doesn't mean I am right or wrong, it's just what makes sense to me but it's not about my opinion either. It's about yours. 

Everyone who has Autism is on the Spectrum. Asperger Syndrome is a mild form of Autism on the Spectrum, let's not rule that out. Therefore we don't really need high functioning, they have a normal speech but they have social and communication difficulties. Yet they are just about to manage school, college, work, home live in certain limits and support in some areas, which can vary. Some areas of support needs may be high and others may be low. 


Severe Autism.  The research for this is rather confusing, I think it should be just under Severe Autism alone, which is on this site.  https://www.verywellhealth.com/what-are-the-different-types-of-autism-260611

Just wanted to say I may go over some things I have put on this website already so sorry about that. The reason for this is trying to make sense of why these sites are so confusing and in a strange way in a way it kind of makes sense but I may or not understood it right so sorry if I am wrong. I think that low and functioning is because Autism is a developmental disability where so people may change as the years go on. Don't get me wrong Autism is for life and it never goes away but it is possible for some people to overcome some areas in their lives but that can vary from person to person. For example, what they were when they were children will possibly change into adulthood. This may depend on if they have other disabilities or and other problems to their Autism what they are. This is pretty much like what I was saying when I was talking about careers other problems they may have either might affect from doing, things or improving their abilities or even both, which again depends on problems they face, which can vary from person to so excepted anything off anyone. 

Getting to the point that doesn't mean that the ways researchers etc have made Autism to be is confusing when we can everything that's mild in mild, everything in moderation in moderation, everything in severe in severe forms. Only that it may be possible that most people may change from one to the other. This could also depend on how high people's support needs are in those people who need a lot of support.

Low functioning should be classed as a severe form of Autism when it comes to those who need a lot of support to live independently.  These people struggle severely with socializing, being understood, and communicating with others one of the reasons could be some people may have little speech, unclear speech, or no speech at all. Some may even make loud brr noises etc that most mainstream speaking people are not likely to understand. This could be as noises get louder one could hear the frustration etc, in their tone because they just can't express themselves. By certain tones, one may be able to tell whether they are feeling happy, said, etc in some cases certain communication formats.  However' these things can work either way where some people may sadly take the pea of people to have severe difficulties, which no excuse whether they understand them or not. 

Sadly all treatments and support we could give will get them very little or no help to be safely alone independently and many could be most vuanble to others as I have just said. Therefore it may or may not be others may or may not be meaning to upset them, not saying all of them but most of them could be very sensitive people not really understanding whether or not someone is trying to upset them, which is very concerning and they could get into difficulty is no one they know is not harmful to them is not there to support them. Without being overprotective but just been honest and it might be some people they have no intentions of upsetting but it might feel like it to them, which causes meltdowns, Anxiety etc and it could affect how they behave where someone may need to calm them.
