    I always saw autism as more of a specialist into a certain thing rather then overall in my opinion. I've got autism myself and I won't lie, I'm useless in social gathering / verbal based communication but excel towards details and in my case, tinkering and repairs since I always found myself fascinated with technology and how it works.

    I completed a BSc and MSc. in engineering, published scientific research in my home country, moved to the United States alone with no money, no English, no papers and no family. I have got fired from jobs almost every year. Recently, I was diagnosed with Asperger in my 50s. Now I understand why. Luckily, have survived tutoring Math, Physics and Chemistry. We have to make sure it doesn't happen to future generations.

    And, this is why we need to learn to live in their world...NOT teach them to live in our world❤️ Autistic children are teaching us to learn about them❤️ My grandson is my whole world, he knows that I get him, because every day he is teaching me to learn about him....I call him my little blessing🙏 It's amazing on how much I have learned, & continue to learn from him❤️ I get him & he gets me. It makes my heart happy to see him being himself, not caring what others think about him. We both are living our best life because we are in OUR own little world & do not have a care in the world of others judging us for who we are❤️ I am the Ying to his Yang❤️🙏

      I'm autistic and what I think is another good way of viewing all this is that it's not a world of neurotypical and neurodivergent people. No one has a 'normal' brain. Everyone is unique and thinks differently. Therefore everyone is neurodivergent, also neurotypical. What I'm trying to say is that it's OUR world together. Not theirs and ours. I believe and hope the world will start to realize this more and more, which will educate naturally and create more opportunities for living good & happy lives. We all have the same needs and all it takes is that we understand each other for it to be possible to solve the problems.

    As a person with Autism, I disagree. The "passion in their work" and "attention to detail" thing usually only apply to their very specific niche interests. It's not always helpful in work, and especially in socializing. Many Autistic people I know, are more likely to be passionate and focus on the details of their very specific, niche, Autistic speical interests, instead of remembering people's names or letting others speak in social situations. Special interests like specific cartoon characters or certain TV shows that NO ONE knows about, for example.

    My 3 year old son has autism and honestly there really are some times that are hard to deal with, but I just view it as some kind of super powers that he is still struggling to control right now and someday with our guidance he will be able to control it properly, at his age he can already read sentences sometimes even paragraphs and able to quickly memorize lyrics of songs, even different shapes and colors and was already able to count from 1 to 100 at the age of 2 years old. I'm so proud of him and will continue to support him til the end.

People that might not see the door-knob but can do some awesome stuff if someone helped them figure out how to get out of the room some other way!

    One of my problems with the way that things are structured make it hard for any of my advantages or disadvantages to shine through.
    My challenges are different then most people's because of autism. But the end result of that is a smaller support circle and less resources and information on how to deal with that challenge.
    Ontop of that, I feel like all the things I have an advantage over other people with are underutilized. People don't see the potential massive value in a different approach to work, so my only avenues are "normal" work. Which heavily reduces just how useful I really could be to them.
    It would be nice if we opened up a little bit more in the ideas of how to encourage and make use of autistic people, and their skills.
    I feel extremely under-valued and under-used for my community becuase of this. Hopefully we can make some progress in these areas.

      I know that, as the Forbes article pointed out, many autistic people would make great employees, but rather than utilizing their advantages, most employers choose to play upon their disadvantages to bully, manipulate and discriminate. A great waste of talent just as with other forms of discrimination in our society. I don't dispute that aspies have alot to contribute but there is a reason 80% of aspies are either unemployed or underemployed and the problem does not lie with the aspie but the society that is unwilling to accept them.

I can delve very deep into these things and im am obsessed. However it makes me very knowledgeable. Im quite light on the autism spectra but i really like genes. I think they are superior and i think they are the future. How else are we gonna overcome all the humans problems? Because we have many flaws. I like to find those flaws. Because of the very light spectra i work well with people and my job is in healthcare. I love people :) To answer your question. NO I DONT BELIEVE ITS A DISORDER.

      Don’t take this the wrong way but those sort of comments really diminish the challenges faced by actual autistic people. I have 2 children on the spectrum who attend ed-support school, can’t really join in with the team sports and have other challenges.
      Calling it a “super power” and that you have slight autism hints is frustrating to read. Unless you have an actual diagnosis of ASD then you are not autistic.
      I have a friend who tries to say he is on the spectrum as well because he thinks he’s a bit “quirky” which he’s not and has perfectly natural social skills as I assume you would as well.
      I think there is a certain section of the population that think it’s cool to say they are on the spectrum as it’s almost a narcissistic way of saying I’m a bit quirky and a bit different than everyone else, therefore I’m “unique”.
      To be a family unit that deals with the challenges of autism every day I get really annoyed reading these types of comments because I don’t think you really have any idea of the challenges some families face.

    I have Asperger's Syndrome and ADHD. I agreed with almost everything he said but I'm a bit against showing Einstein and Newton when trying to teach people about autism simply because it gives the wrong idea... It can make people think that they can't be Asperger without being geniuses or dissuade their parents from testing them because they aren't "above average" at anything specific...

    I wish my social skills were a bit better but even embarrassing past events feel traumatic i curl into a ball, telling my brain "stop it!". Even if others find it funny and i find it crippling, i unintentionally lash out to make them stop and then run to a safe space, blast music in my headphones and try to block every thought of it away
    Pathetic. I know. Its one reason why i wish i never had autism.

      Hi I also have Autism (Asperger's) and I love myself. I wouldn't be who I am if I didn't have it. We all experience the diagnosis differently. Though the negatives have outweighed the positives for you, it doesn't mean there isn't hope. Don't give up hope. Keeping it going and trying is EVERYTHING. We are all notes in a huge musical piece. Without each other, and I mean ALL of us, there's no music. I also have ADHD and severe dyslexia. I can't study normally in college. I'm burnt out and don't really see how I will be able to solve my situation. But I know I will. I know you will.

    Growing Up, I always knew i was different that other kids, and later found out at 10 that I had Autism, at first, I wanted to kill myself. Badly, because I was horrible socializing and communicating with people, but I found out that people with this disorder have a great Power withing us, that includes in Learning Physically or Mentally, life seems tough and hopeless for my kind, we usually always give up and see ourselves like such a waste, It's hard for us to live a normal life, cause we are just so different that other regular people, but, No. If you think your not meant in this world, then your horribly wrong because we all have a purpose that God gave us, so find your meaning in life and always be yourself no matter what other people see you.

      @Electro Power Sensory issues, social skill issues, false hope of savant syndrome, inability to communicate to the world(or understand any of it), but everyone on the specturm is super different. Not even diffent based on the layers of the spectrum. The spectrum is really used to define the range of how severe Autism's negative effects on a person are. This being said, everyone has there own oppinion about whether autism is benificial or not, and what I said before, was months ago. Frankly, I dispise my autism, but that's just my opinion. I understand others don't feel that way, and I'm sorry for spewing that out six months ago. I posted this around the time that I had just learned that I have it, and I was already goin through a bad time, and I began realizing where autism had effected my life. I was mad, and envious, and after looking up for a means of medicinal treatment to reduce the effects of autism, eventually this popped up in my recommended. I was so angry in that moment that I saw this, I came over to debate this. I'm sorry if I upset you.
