Signs of Autism | Special Education Decoded

[@roseystudio10]

I think I might have autism? Now that I'm older, thinking back to my childhood, I showed pretty strong signs. -I hated change! Back when I was young, we went to a specific church for an event called 'Awana'. And when we had to go to a different church for Awana, I had taken the longest time getting used to the new routine and accept it. I hated it. -I hated working in social groups, especially when it came to learning and playing. Why should I be with other kids my age anyway? When I can LITERALLY do it myself? Now I feel pressured to do it, because apparently I might die alone with that kind of thinking. I like working alone, even now. -I couldn't find a point in a subject I...didn't even like. Even when my mom tried intervening, I felt...both frustrated and annoyed. Math was a big one, it wasn't until Geometry (because of shapes and structures, since I really liked art related subjects) that I was FINALLY able to catch on. -I was EXTREMELY honest. One time I called a girl short, and legitimately couldn't see the problem with it. My dad had to take me to the side to explain it to me. -I had(have) strange behaviors. I went on my tippy toes and could do it without even realizing it. I ran and waved my hands in a way other kids thought as 'weird'. There's a lot more, but I feel like you get the right idea. I still show some symptoms even today, but again you get the idea.

My child has been diagnosed with autism however we have been denied 2x for iep because the school doesn’t believe he has autism… is there anything we can do?

It not always as simple as seeking a professional diagnosis. They can be very expensive and the waiting lists are years long.

I couldn't find a video if you have information on eating disorders in ASD children. Great videos and information, by the way.
