Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC)
Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a person communicates, interacts, and experiences the world around them. It is a lifelong condition, and while each individual with ASC has unique strengths and challenges, early screening and appropriate support can significantly improve their quality of life.
Understanding Autism Spectrum Condition
ASC is a broad spectrum, meaning individuals experience varying degrees of difficulties in social communication, sensory processing, and repetitive behaviours. Some may require significant support in daily life, while others live independently with minimal assistance.
While autism is commonly identified in childhood, many adults also seek screening if they have faced long-term challenges related to social interactions, sensory sensitivities, or routines. An early and accurate screening helps individuals and families access the right support and accommodations.
Common Signs of ASC
Individuals with ASC may show a range of characteristics, including:
Social Communication Challenges – Difficulty understanding social cues, maintaining conversations, or making eye contact.
Repetitive Behaviours & Routines – Preference for routines, repetitive movements (such as hand-flapping), or intense focus on specific topics.
Sensory Processing Differences – Heightened or reduced sensitivity to sounds, lights, textures, or tastes.
Difficulty with Change – Anxiety or distress when routines are disrupted or unexpected changes occur.
It is important to note that autism presents differently in each individual, and many autistic people develop strategies to navigate social interactions and daily activities.
Why Autism Screening is Important
Many individuals, especially those with mild or ‘hidden’ autism, remain undiagnosed. A professional screening helps in:
Understanding an individual’s unique strengths and challenges.
Accessing appropriate educational and workplace accommodations.
Receiving personalised support and therapy.
Improving self-awareness and mental well-being.
