Autism
Neurodevelopmental disorder
Autism, also known as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by differences and difficulties in social communication and interaction, a need for predictability, sensory processing differences, focused interests, and repetitive behaviors such as stimming. Formal diagnosis requires significant challenges in multiple domains of life, with characteristics that are atypical or more pronounced than expected for one's age and sociocultural context. Motor coordination difficulties are common but not required for diagnosis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism
