WHAT IS AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER?
Autism Spectrum Disorder is a complex neurological disorder. “Imagine the radio is not tuned into a station properly. Other radio stations are interfering in a distorted cacophony of sound. Everything you look at is grossly distorted in movement and color. Faces, objects and sounds make up a nightmare world and leave you with fear and confusion. Your outside world becomes chaotic and frightening. Now try and imagine spending every waking hour of your life in this world. This distortion of sensory input would cause you to withdraw into a safer world inside your own self.”
