I thought I would make a thread about an increasingly diagnosed condition, autism. Autism is a neurological condition that can cause social difficulty and anxiety.
It has only been diagnosed since the late 1990s. As such, many adults are undiagnosed.
Christine McGuinnness recently came out as autistic, following the diagnosis of her children. Similarly, Melanie Sykes has come out as autistic.
What are your experiences with autism? Do you know anyone who you think could be un-diagnosed? Do you think that awareness of autism is at a satisfactory level?
