Casey..I just finished your book "Connecting With The Autism Spectrum" I just wanted to say that I am a private music teacher and I bought your book to learn more about people with autism. Your book was awesome and I want to thank you for writing the book.
I bought your book in order to better understand some co-workers of mine. I work in the railroad industry, and, probably predictably, there are many people on the spectrum that I work with. I absoulutely LOVED your book...it was so insightful and mind opening!!! I plan to do far more research into this subject, but you gave me an amazing entry in to understanding, empathy, and how to better communicate. I'm a very, very "antimated" individual via tonation, sarcasm, joking, physical expression, etc. Your book is an AMAZING tool for me as my starting point to communicate better. I appreciate you very much!
You have shared some great insights with us. I agree with you about having an individual’s ability is important to develop their skills. You are blessed to have knowledge of yourself eg. social skills, interprétation of humour, body language and your ability to observe and see details that we don’t see etc. I have, with son, observed the things that bother him such certain sounds and items needing precision. Thank you for your efforts and I admire you in wanting to work. All the best....👍👍👍
2:09 That 2nd question seemed very abstract. But you did an excellent job Explaining how you see it. I've seen people say autism is who they are and they wouldn't want to change it. I've disagreed with that. Especially for very young children. I believe if there is anything that can help we shouldn't look away from it. I've seen diet make a big difference for my daughter. I'm not talking about drugs or any other... Well you know what I mean. Most people I talk to seem to have no idea what autism is. As far as your 1st question, I've noticed in my town the schools don't like to diagnose autism. It seems as though if a child isn't diagnosed by their own doctor at a young age the school isn't going to do it. They'll call it anything else, a behavioral problem, developmental delay, etc. This last year, I've noticed the definition of dyslexia, ADHD, and autism are very similar. Do you think they may have a similar origin? I've read there are environmental risk factors. And when I say risk factor I mean it literally. But do you think these environmental risk factors could eventually turn out to be the cause? Mercury poisoning is nothing new and roundup herbicide can make us more susceptible to it. I'm 67 right now and I've probably been dealing with ADHD since the 2nd grade. Do you have any health issues that you think could benefit from a low-carb, keto, or even a carnivore diet?
Yes indeed. And the lady didn't even know me, but just judged me only by the term 'autism', and then assumed that I was never able to work. It just didn't make any sense.
Age 15 here..... it didn't really matter. I was able to get a PE license and, in retirement, am working on a degree in CIS (Computer Information Science). You will similarly do well.
That's great. For me it mattered a lot, I've had many different jobs but things always went wrong because of the communication and social aspect of it. I love being self employed 🙂

Sometimes getting angry is the only way to move other people out of one's way. I understand that. Cheerio

A brilliant dream to have 🤗
