What I will learn?
Objective
1. Recognize how autism presents at different ages — from early red flags in toddlers to missed diagnoses in adults, especially women and those who mask.
2. Differentiate autism from and identify its overlap with ADHD, anxiety, OCD, and psychotic disorders.
3. Screen for and manage key comorbidities across the lifespan, including epilepsy, sleep and GI problems, depression, catatonia, and suicidality.
4. Plan transition to adult care and address the needs of ageing autistic patients, including diagnostic overshadowing and caregiver support.
5. Adapt the clinical encounter to reduce sensory and communication barriers using neurodiversity-informed practice.
