Kickstarttherapy

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.

An Aspie's Life: The Untold and Unknown Story by KathrynAmbrose

Autism. A word most people avoid. All those negative connotations. Stupid. Weird. Retarded. Helpless. But that's not the whole story. Not two different sides of the same coin but more sides beyond. Each one is a little different. And this one is mine. Living with Asperger's Syndrome is both wonderful and confusing. Colorful and chaotic. I'm not just Autistic. I'm an individual. This is the secret I know and that others will learn: I am different but not less.

Beyond Words: A Journey of Love, Loss, and Autism by alataszaky

When eight-year-old Jonathan met his autistic cousin Asher, he never imagined that their brief encounter would shape the course of his entire life. Bound by a childhood promise made in the face of tragedy, Jonathan embarks on a decades-long journey to unlock the mysteries of the autistic mind. But as he rises to become a world-renowned neuroscientist, he discovers that his greatest lessons came not from textbooks or laboratories, but from a boy who never spoke a word. A touching tale of love, loss, and the power of human connection, this story reminds us that sometimes, the most profound impact on our lives comes from the most unexpected sources.

Almost Emotionless by titi_hendrix

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. -

"I know right" I roll my eyes, and she giggles at me which gives me a great idea. I start tickling her, and she falls unto the bed kicking her feet.

She Came From The Stars by Shannymel

In the world we live in today, speaking seems to be the only way one knows how to communicate; as if it is the only way to communicate- or is it? There are many unique children, scattered around the world, who are labelled as, "special needs", or "autistic", or ADHD. And these labels usually come with a negative stigma attached to them. But, what if- what if these children were just... different? What if these children are here, to show us a different, and more unique way of living. 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.
