Autism, Life & Learning
First a quick catch up I passed my TMA 04 which is good. I have just TMA 05 to do and my assessments, an exam through course work, for this module. I'm just getting ready to go back to Nottingham and whilst training I may have caught a bit of sun stroke- but I can't stroke the sun because apparently it 'too hot’ .
This one is going to be an odd one. This post is going to be how some people on the spectrum don't feel like they are human, or should I say they don't feel like homo sapiens. There are two main ways to look at this. 1) They feel like they can do everything better then the standard homo sapiens because their 'gifts' give them an unusual amount of input to the world around them. I kinda fall in this category with my 'gifts' I can mimic and adapt to virtually any situation or environment given to me with near precision hence the nickname Gecko. From this things like adverts or sublimate messages don't work on me because they become part of the environment I’m in. Some As I have mentioned have a very high empathic skill these know and can feel peoples feeling around them or they can sense the atmosphere they are in and sense each individual persons emotions- One skill I would like. 2) They feel don’t fit in the mould where they think they are human but feel more like a computer and can relate more to something technological then biological. They can come from how fast we think- I might talk about that later on. We also have meltdowns or shutdowns which are explained and kinda look like a computer crashing. A lot of us have a high or good memory which can seem like a computer storage system. Sorry this is so short. This kind of an odd one that doesn't really get talked about so I though I would put as part of this set up. This might help with the next post I will put up.

Well this firstly isn't an argument more bigotry or ignorants, take your pick. For anyone whos dosen't know too much about autism I will run the basics off.
Firstly because Austim is known as Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD), or Autism Spectrum Condition(ASC). Autism is a 'developmental' disorder, this meant to happen as we develop but before birth. That is pretty much everyone knows about that bit. Autism allows that person to become sentive to sound, light, tates and touching or just all of them.Autism affects social and communition skill aswell as motor fine and gross funtion skills, thats movement skill. Fine motor are small/fine movements like threding needles and gross movements are big moments like walking. It can also affects speach, thats why some are non-verbal or have a stammer. Also most have a talent of some kind and perfect pitch or can at least sense perfect pitch. Anyway thats enough of that. Heres the cure 'argument' There are people who think that autism can be cured because it is a condition or a disorder. These come in a variety of things such as; spells, medication, being beaten or just being locked in a room by your self. I'm not going to say what type of people do this. The reason they think they can cure autism is because its a condition and we look normal on the outside so why are we odd in the inside. That is the basis they think we can be cured by any of that. The question these people haven't thought about is do we need a cure? Yes it can be hard work. Yes it can be annoying not understanding people but Autism makes us uquine people. Lastly a question for anyone who belives in this cure or for anyone who wants to ponder it. Before you answer people with autism 1/5 of elements on the peirodic table, we expanded the field of knowledge in Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Biology, Design and Electronics- without autism you may not be reading this from your computer, tablet or phone. That what i can think off the top of my head. Without autism the world would be different because its our 'out of of the box' thinking that has found these things and more. Why would you want to cure autism? That is the cure arugement folks- it is a simple argument but also a little silly aswell. |
