Event Description

When something makes you Happy, Sad, angry, surprised and you don`t know how to express yourself then how will you feel? How will you feel when you have 1000 words to say but don`t know the medium? How will you feel when you are trapped in a coffin and people call you abnormal or don`t understand your pain. How do you feel if jumping or flapping your hands soothe you but annoy others? Do you feel sad, well this is a regular life of an individual with autism spectrum disorder? Prevention begins when we generate awareness and have empathy towards the happenings of surroundings as well.
