Choose the support
that fits your needs
For some people, an autism screening provides enough clarity and self-understanding.
For others, a comprehensive
diagnostic assessment and formal diagnosis are needed for accommodations, services, or greater personal certainty.

Types of
overwhelm
Autistic people can get overwhelmed at times. In the article below, Eva describes her experience of 3 types
of overwhelm relating to autism:
a sensory overload, a meltdown,
and a shutdown.
Meltdowns &
shutdowns
