Autism Spectrum Disorder

Added 2020-10-04 04:25:43 +0000 UTC

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental condition that involves persistent challenges in social interaction, speech and nonverbal communication, and restricted/repetitive behaviors. The effects of ASD and the severity of symptoms are different in each person.

ASD is usually first diagnosed in childhood with many of the most-obvious signs presenting around 2-3 years old, but some children with autism develop normally until toddlerhood when they stop acquiring or lose previously gained skills. Autism is a lifelong condition. However, many children diagnosed with ASD go on to live independent, productive, and fulfilling lives.

Thanks (I am tired of the up-down with this trait, Please just let sleeping dogs lie. I will not be responding to comments on this trait unless for Support.)

Note: This is a Remake and Renovation of PieBaldFawn's original Autism Spectrum Disorder Trait. They chose to remove and retire it. I decided to recreate it since it is a very often used trait of mine and I enjoyed the added Realism.
