In this educational and respectful video, we break down exactly what Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Asperger's Syndrome are, their key characteristics, and how our understanding of them has changed over time. Whether you're seeking a diagnosis, supporting a loved one, or just curious to learn, this guide provides a clear, stigma-free overview.

✔️ The history of Asperger's Syndrome – where the term came from and how it was previously used.
✔️ Why Asperger's is no longer an official diagnosis in the DSM-5 and how it fits under the Autism Spectrum umbrella today.
✔️ Common strengths and challenges associated with both.
✔️ The neurodiversity perspective – understanding autism as a different way of thinking, not a deficit.
✔️ Key terminology (e.g., why many prefer "Autistic person" over "person with autism").
✔️ Resources for support and further learning.
