Someone with neurodiversity as opposed to someone who is neurotypical. Not curable as it is not a diseases, virus, sickness or mental health issues. Not a result of trauma or poor upbringing as it is biological. There is a genetic aspect to it but a person can be autistic without having autistic relatives too. There is no specific way in which autistic people behave as autism just refers to a way in which the human brain can process information and function, personality is separate from that.
"I got diagnosed recently so now I know with certainty that I am autistic."
"This Instagram post, which is trying to be informative, is just pushing stereotypes about autism. Have they even asked looked at autistic support sites for actual facts about autism?"

Get the Autistic mug.I don't know much about the technicals of autism. I do know some autistic kids personally. The ones I know usually socially isolate themselves to some extent. Some autistic kids are remarkably skilled in some area, and know a lot about things that someone would find very confusing.
My best friend's brother is autistic. He is socially awkward but he can name every country in the world and all the components of his computer with a description of their functions off the top of his head.
I knew another autistic kid who was amazingly awesome at street fighter for snes.

Get the autistic mug.Related Words
The cause of autism is unknown, but studies show that people with autism have larger brains than normal.
There are different kinds of autism. Low functioning, middle functioning and high functioning.
Some of the lower functioning people with autism have the intelligence of a baby, in which they can only scream, grab at your shirt, drool, and do other baby type stuff.
However, there are people that are autistic that are very smart, such as Bill Gates.
To people that generalize autistic kids as retarded, be quiet, because you're probably using Windows.

Get the Flip Autistic Shit mug.Formerly meaning a way to describe those with the developmental disorder autism characterized by a lack of social skills, extreme/low intelligence (depending on the severity), and other odd behaviours, it is now an insult/slang term used by trolls/failtrolls alike when they can't say anything better or think that it's cool to use a developmental disorder as an insult.
