Social networking is making the world smaller

There was a time when it could be extremely difficult for somebody with autism to cope with life when things got tough, such issues developing as changes in routine or regular behaviour may have knocked them out of everyday patterns which they would have lived by and believed in over many years.

Repeating familiar tasks daily is a common trait many people on the autistic spectrum share including myself, though this specific disability based ritual only acts as an example in terms of today’s post and not it’s main talking point.

For me, there were feelings deep inside for quite some time that such patterns of living that I’d developed was something which I personally felt alone.
