What everyone who is on the Autism Spectrum faces Anxiety and Depression one way or another, which isn't only in people with Autism but other problems too, and maybe those who face mental health who just face Anxiety and Depression or and Mental - ill health.

I have just found a site not only you will be learning from but me as well, in fact, you may or may not know more than me about this. In fact, this was unexcepted but could come useless for those who may or even may not have come across it.
You may wonder what is Flat affect?
It's very understandable you may wonder what I am on about, it is such an odd name but as crazy as it sounds it is a condition. Even I was puzzled when I first saw the site. It is a condition that people may struggle to express their emotions.
They are not able to express whether they are happy, sad, etc and they show no facial expression.
They have no reaction to verbal communication.
Signs
No or low emotional expressions on their face.
No or low emotional reaction to verbal or nonverbal ways.
- appearance of apathy
- a monotone speaking voice
- avoidance of eye contact with others
- little to no change in facial expressions
