Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental
condition affecting communication, behaviour, and social interaction. Symptoms
vary widely but commonly include difficulties in understanding social cues,
delayed speech, repetitive behaviours, and intense focus on specific interests.
Sensory sensitivities and co-occurring conditions like ADHD or anxiety are also
frequent. The exact cause is unknown, though genetic and environmental factors
play a role. Diagnosis is based on behavioural assessments, as there are no
medical tests for ASD. Early intervention through therapies such as Applied
Behaviour Analysis (ABA), speech and language therapy, and occupational therapy
can significantly improve outcomes. With appropriate support, individuals with
ASD can lead fulfilling lives. Awareness and inclusion are essential in
creating supportive environments for those on the spectrum.
