Autism and Homeopathy
Autism is a childhood disorder and can begin at a very young age, which can most of the time be mistaken for mental problem. Autism can range from a mild form to a severe condition. The milder form is known as Asperger Syndrome. The actual ground of what causes autism is not really known. In fact, if not detected, it can be ignored as well. Non responsive behavior of child during the first few years is the first indication that makes parent concerned followed by losing a little speech and withdrawal from social interactions leads parents to look for external help. Nearly, by age of three, autism is well prevalent and can be diagnosed easily. Since, autism is an individual based disorder, its treatment also varies from person to person. Symptoms in an autistic child can only be recognized by professionally qualified medical specialists and it may take time to actually confirm whether the child has autism or not. Early detection of autism can help in providing the right kind of treatment from the very beginning. The transition of an autistic child to and an adult is equally challenging. Parents need to start preparing before it sets in. The focus should be on things like adult services, independent living, work, college or vocational education and social engagements. People with autism should be encouraged to take part in activities like music, art, gardening and even little sports. Though, these autistic children are different, they are capable of showing extraordinary talents in them.
Since, autistic children require a very planned and tailored treatment on an individual basis, parents need to be patient all through the treatment phase as some children may respond quickly to the treatment than the others. Homeopathic medicines do take a little longer to show long lasting results. Children with autism are unique and need constant parental help and support from their teachers & doctors, which can help these children to live a better and enriched life.
