'''Autism''' is a neurological disorder, characterized by inability to interact socially, linguistic disability, intense, narrow interests, and repetitive behaviors. These are called stims. They include walking on tiptoes, flapping of hands, staring at objects for a prolonged period of time, oral fixation, spinning in circles, and other repetive activities. Other signs include lack of eye contact, playing alone, lack of words, or in the case of aspergers, big vocabulary but lack of social skills or inapropriate behavior. It is usually detected by the time a child is four years old but some people have forms of autism that are so mild that they go unnoticed into adulthood.
