What Makes Individuals With Autism Feel Stressed? [INFOGRAPHIC]

Children with autism feel stressed in many circumstances which appear normal to us. This stress manifests itself in various ways – through anxiety, refusal to cooperate and more. And if the stress increases beyond a threshold, it turns into a meltdown.

 

Most neurotypicals see just the behavior of the child and deduce that s/he is acting difficult out of stubbornness. But there is much more to their misunderstood behaviors than meets the eye.

 

The below infographic sheds light on why children with autism feel stressed. In fact, the feedback we received from individuals on the autism spectrum shows that this holds true for adults on the autism spectrum too.
