You are either autistic or you are not, there is no such thing as 'severe autism'. How you are affected by autism can be severe, but equally it can be mild, and how you're affected can change throughout your life.
I don´t know about severe autism but there are students at my university who are very very intelligent who have autism. I think the main hurdle in autism is the problem with social interaction which can hinder learning.
It depends how mild it is.
You would have severe troubles communicating
No, Autism is not mild or severe - Autism just is.Autism is a neurological difference and considered to be a spectrum condition as it effects people in different ways and to different severity which can change throughout a persons life or from situation to situation. Autism cannot be mild, but a person may experience mild symptoms with their autism.
There are about an equal number of boys and girls who are diagnosed with severe cases of autism, but more boys than girls are diagnosed with moderate and mild cases of autism. It has not been determined whether this is because fewer girls have autism or because they are less likely to be diagnosed.
You can't die as a result of having autism. In some cases autism is so severe that autistic people may not see potential harm such as oncoming trafic or falling into rivers, but this is uncommon. The biggest risk with autism is not the autism itself but prejudice towards autism, unfortunately many parents murder their autistic children or autistic people can be abused to the point of being killed.
Yes, there are known situations of persons with autism having children with autism. There is a genetic component to autism. Some people with autism get married and have children. Some of those children have autism, but some do not. Autism varies in its severity, so other people might not recognize that a person has autism. Sometimes a parent with autism or Asperger's Syndrome is not diagnosed until after having a child with a more severe case that is diagnosed.
I think autism only ranges between mild to severe. it doesn't have a profound form.im not suree abt it..coz i came here searching for the same question myself.
Asperger is different from autism because people with Aspergers are less restricted with behavioral interactions than those with autism. Asperger's is a form of autism, but it is high-functioning and Aspergers is not as severe as actual autism is (Take it from me: I have aspergers and my younger brother has autism)
