I'm high on the spectrum, but I'm higher on the schizoid spectrum so that's what I get meds for

My niece is 7 now and has always been nonverbal but shes in a really good school and is making great progress. She can read now and can even talk when she focuses. It makes me so happy because I didnt know if she would simply remain totally nonverbal. I feel like being able to communicate even a little and the ability to read opens up so much life for her to experience.

See if you can make sure she doesn't get bullied since that will most likely make her regress. Bullying is awful.

I'm curious, what makes her (and other nonverbal people) like that? Is it just harder for them to learn it? Is it just refusal to do it? Is it a a neurological issue that comes with autism? Some combination of them?

I'm not trying to be offensive so sorry if this comes off that way

Nobody knows I guess. The emotional damage is really bad though so I wouldn't want her to go through that.

you arent being offensive its ok to ask questions

a lot is still unknown about autism and there really is a broad spectrum of what it means to be autistic, but really it comes down to their brain working differently then what we typically consider normal perception

so some things that most humans pick up naturally like speaking, socializing, subtly and nuance, etc can seem very alien, stressful, and too overwhelming
