Tania Bloha Autism – is a disease of geniuses.

The term "autism" was introduced by Eugen Bleuler.

What is this? This disease makes in the first three years of a child's development. Children long didnt speak, dont pay attention to others, don't make eye contact. Autistic doesnt like changes in his life – always eats from the same dish, goes for a walk in the same place, not like guests. Falls into hysterics, if the house rearrange the furniture, buy something new.

What are they? Many children with autism have reduced sensitivity to pain, but acutely responsive to sound, touch or other sensory stimulation which lead to the unwillingness of these children to cuddle.

How to identify? There are neither tests nor changes in the human body, which can diagnose autism. The diagnosis is based on the observation of human behavior.

How many of them? Autism in children is more common than cancer, diabetes and AIDS combined. The world's 67 million people suffer from autism. Autism in children is more common than cancer, diabetes and AIDS combined. The world's 67 million people suffer from autism.
