At KickStart Therapy we foster understanding and create a supportive environment for individuals with ASD. Here are some myths about ASD that people generally assume.
- All individuals with autism are alike.
- People with autism lack empathy.
- Autism is caused by bad parenting
- Individuals with autism cannot lead a successful life.
Instead, every autistic individual has unique abilities and strength. Their expressing capabilities are different, but empathy is genuine. It is a neurodevelopmental disorder. However, with the right support, these individuals can achieve incredible things.

What if they are not in need, of "special attention"? What if they are just: special. This fictional (or is it?) short story , is geared to change your perception about these children, and your view point on communication, and the way we as human beings- speak.Complete

Almost Emotionless
A mom who has alexithymia is raising an autistic toddler. Ashauri had never known what happiness truly meant until she fell pregnant with her beautiful son, Cashton. Sadly, after she gave birth, the happiness she once felt went away and her life went back to being empty emotionally. With her son being autistic, Ashauri is relieved she doesn't have to fake a smile or make her voice higher than normal to give off the impression she's in a good mood. Her son couldn't tell the difference. Despite the rumors, Ashauri and Cashton's bond is like no other; they understand one another better than most. A simple glance can either make or break their decision on whether to continue whatever it is that has their attention. The two didn't depend on words because neither of them enjoyed talking. Apathetic: having or showing little or no emotion; indifferent. Alexithymia is when a person has difficulty experiencing, identifying, and expressing emotions. Intermittent explosive disorder involves repeated, sudden episodes of impulsive, aggressive, violent behavior or angry verbal outbursts in which you react grossly out of proportion to the situation. -
