You don't. Autism is currently incurable. Therapy and education can help symptoms, but it is otherwise impossible to "stop being autistic".

Is there any kind of movie of an Autistic person that outgrew Autism?

I would think not, such a movie would be grossly inaccurate and potentially harmful to the Autistic community. People cannot grow out of being Autistic, it's a neurology so you can no more grow out of it than you could grow out of being born Asian. A film that suggests otherwise would contribute to abuse towards autistic people, already many parents try to force their Autistic children to become or at least act neurotypical, if they believed a person could stop being Autistic (something some view as negative) then they'd be more forceful and with it abusive.


What is it called when your afraid or being autistic?

There is no specific term for someone who is afraid of being Autistic.A person is Autistic or they are not, it is pointless being an Autistic person who is scared of being themselves or a neurotypical person who is scared of being something they could never possibly be. Fear of Autism in general is just plain ableism, discrimination against Autistic people.

What is on the highly functioning end of the spectrum of autistic disorders?

High Functioning is an offensive and meaningless term, it's about judging Autistic people as acceptable or not based on how severely they're effects by their Autism or the ways in which their Autism effects them. An Autistic person is an Autistic person, full stop.
