Autism is a severly incapacitating lifelong disability, which typically manifests itself during the first 30 months of life. Its is characterized by severe communication and behavioural problems, and an inability to relate normally to other people.

These problems wary from child to child and time to time in severity and manner. Other common symptoms include sleeping, feeding and toileting problems, self-injurous behaviour and repetitive, self-stimutory behaviour.

Autistic persons have a wide range of intellectual ability. Often, they can show extraordinary abilities in mathematical or mechanical skills, or in music, rote, memory, etc.
Symptoms
These are the symptoms:

stand-offish manner
inappropriate laughing
echolalic
no fear of real dangers
apparent insensitivity to pain
difficulty mixing with other children
adverse to cuddling
sustained odd play
crying tantrums - extreme
distress for no discernible reason
indicates needs by gesture
acts as deaf
unusual eye contact
resists normal teaching methods
spin objects
inappropriate attachment to objects
uneven gross / fine motor skills
resists change in routine
marked physical overactivity or extreme passitivity


Diagnosis & Treatment
Diagnosis of autism is based on observation of the child's behaviour. Diagnosis can be difficult because autism sometimes occurs in association with other disorders, which affect brain function, more commonly mental retardation. Many adolescents and adults in mental retardation hospitals are cases of undiagnosed early childhood autism. Early diagnosis is essential. Once identified, a child with autism can benefit dramatically from specialized education programs. Unfortunately, there are still too few services for autistic children and adults alike.


Education has proved the most helpful treatments for autistic people. The autistic child can benefit, often dramatically, from prompt recognition of his handicap and special education suited to his/her needs. Autism is a lifelong disability and services must be planned also to help adolescents and adults cope with life and achieve their full potential.

More specifically, autistics need:

early identification of autism, usually possible by age of 30 months.
pre-school programs for infants and toddlers, especially to manage autistic behaviours and develop self-help skills; and councelling and training for the parents.
free and appropriate school programs providing a highly structured balance of academic and vocational skills. The child should also be taught to communicate by all or any possible methods, including sign language, and should develop learning skills.
extended day and 12-month programs to supplement the classroom and encourage self-help and recreation.
teachers with special interest and experience in the field, a high staff-child ratio and the support of specialists like psychologists and speech pathologists.
special methods - the technique of behaviour modification has been notably effective - by which autistic children can learn socially acceptable behaviour and basic life skills and some prove capable of far more.
community-based services so that child can live with his family, but alternative living arrangements should be acessible for short-term emergency and vacation relief and for when the child grows up.
programs for autistic teenagers and adults to continue learning functionality skills to help them cope with life more efficiently.
