Managing the World of Neurodiversity
I’m Dr. Paul Short. I work with people adjusting to neurological conditions like Parkinson's disease and those who have identified themselves as having autistic traits. Many of the latter came to believe they were "on the spectrum" later in life and are still exploring just what this means.
One aspect to consider is that many people with autism sleep poorly. To learn more, follow the link below:
If you've heard someone say they are "on the spectrum", or even described yourself this way, are we talking about the neurodevelopmental disorder called autism?
It isn't clear. Although the "spectrum" encompasses behaviors common to autism, no one, not even the most severely impaired individual, exhibits all of them. Many of these behavioral signs appear in people who we would describe as "normal" (neurotypical).
How many behaviors need to be checked off to determine if someone has autism? How many do you believe you have?
Contact Dr. Short to begin the process of finding out.
