>>12107102autism diagnosis are probably real in EXTREMELY rare cases where there is an involuntary defect prior to birth. but these are almost 100% of the time environmental, and mostly based on how the child is raised.
the brain is developed from the back to the front. autistic children are not shown love or social interaction while being raised. as a result, the frontal lobe develops at early stages in life. however it is developed at an early stage, they are by NO means smarter than others; because the frontal cortex is SCATTERED from improper predevelopment of extremely crucial stages in development of the mind. oxytocin communication (VERY IMPORTANT) is depleted from an autistic mind due to lack of love, attention, and social interaction while growing up.
western hemisphere doctors mistreat this diagnosis by taking them to a doctor, having them do speech therapy, or even locking them in a facility where they are on a specific regime and cannot touch other females. i am speaking from direct experience and have also seen this done to many other people. these facilities actually further damage the much needed late development of the inner mind, further scattering the frontal lobe. so instead of treating the diagnosis, they are announced to the surrounding people of their diagnosis. and since poeple do not know much about autism, you may as well replace the term autsim with "fucking antisocial retard, not worth understanding". most people are not doctors and are incredibly judgemental. so this label only furthers the damage. furthermore, the diagnosis is HEAVILY misdiagnosed, creating a placebo affect on what would otherwise be healthy individuals.
