Life is a series of many stages from childhood to old age and can include many transitions such as moving from primary to secondary school, leaving home, getting your first job, starting a family, going through the menopause and retiring.
For autistic people, a change in life stage may be especially difficult. This is due to 3 primary reasons:
- Because autism is a developmental disability
- Because a life stage change will usually cause a lifestyle change
- Because any change will have an effect on an autistic person’s ‘state of normal’
