What is autism?

Autism in children, also known as autism in children, is a mental developmental disorder characterized by social communication or communication barriers, limitations, rigidity and repetitive behavior, and is the most representative disease among the widespread developmental disorders.

Symptoms of autism:

1, mental retardation

After autism, the common manifestation is mental retardation. Generally, the intelligence level of children is inconsistent during illness, and a small number of patients will have mental retardation, even moderate mental retardation.

2. Narrow interest range

Generally speaking, after autism, children's interests will be narrowed, and they will not be interested in toys and games that normal people are keen on. Usually, some objects that children don't like will show a wide range of interests, such as observing abnormal objects such as electric fans and bottle caps, which may last for a long time without being bored, but they are not interested in toys that normal people like, which is also related to autism.

3. Stereotyped behavior

Autistic people usually have rigid behavior patterns, such as sleeping at a fixed time every day and taking the same route when going out. These behaviors are rigid, and if they stop, they usually show unhappiness, anxiety and even resistance, all of which are related to autism.

4. Language barriers

Autism will have language barriers in its development, which is a common manifestation of the disease. In the development of language barriers, language ability is usually slow, and you may still be unable to speak when you are two or three years old. With the growth of age, there may be silence, less language, decreased expression ability and so on.

5. Social barriers

After general autism, the obvious performance is social disorder. Patients can't establish normal interpersonal relationships with others and can't communicate with others normally. They generally lack friends, and they can't tell the specific relationship between relatives and friends. They treat their relatives and others in the same way.
