Children and Adults with Autism typically have difficulty in verbal and non – verbal communication. They may have difficulty relating to the outside world and can present unusual reactions to the people around them, which can include aggressive behaviour that may cause injury to themselves or others. The disorder also causes sensitivity to the senses of sight, touch, hearing, smell and taste.

In many cases a child appears normal and reasonably healthy for the first 18 to 24 months but then there is a regression of speech development, often to the point of muteness. Severe problems with behaviour, communication and social relationships are caused by the inability to understand what other children would normally sense through sight touch and hearing. Obsessions are very apparent, these can range from, wearing the same clothes everyday to more severe obsess ional behaviour e.g.laying in floor in supermarket /road if the same procedure is not carried out at each outing
