A person who is known to have autism. Characterized by repetative movements such as hand flapping, rocking, or banging of the head. Some autistic people have speech delays, trouble concentrating and difficulties with the emotional ques of other people. Some autistics have above average intelligence with minimal issues as stated above.

To be autistic is a challenge for not just the person with autism but the entire family envolved. It is highly misunderstood and has no cure.

I encourage others to please read up on autism and make yourself aware of the signs. Early intervention will have the biggest impact on an autistics life.

A neurotypical (NT) word that describes a group of people that are not able (nor interested at times) to conform to behaviours like :

- overvaluing eye contact by judging others on their ability / inability to do so.
- engaging in small talk
- not taking things literally
-speaking for the sake of speaking

It is a also a neurotypical (NT) word describing a segment of the disable community, those with mental illness and those who are unable to help themselves and therefor require not just assistance but direction.

Autism refers to a Spectrum of people which in reality has referred to mainly extroverted Autistics (those they can observe readily).

As much as Autistic encompasses "high functioning" Autistics and "Aspergians", NTs exercise the use of this word to mostly regard "lower functioning".

The use of the term Autistic is usually used in NT circles including 'experts, parents and service providers' only to leave out the very people they claim to be trying to help.

Autistic means to be seen as less than, dumb, incapable, foolish, naive.
"I'm Autistic"
"Um, you don't seem autistic. You seem fine to me. You make eye contact. You are reasonably expressive. Nothing's wrong with you"

"You're Autistic. I'm sorry your Autism has made things so hard for you"
"Um, I didn't say that".
