Aspergers in Girls: The Role of Therapy in Treating Autism Spectrum Disorder

In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Life Expectancy and Autism: Beyond the Statistics, we take a deep dive into an issue that’s not often talked about—but should be. Research shows that autistic adults may face a shorter life expectancy compared to the general population, and we’re here to ask: why is that happening, and what can be done about it?We explore the real-world challenges autistic individuals face that may contribute to this statistic—from healthcare inequalities and mental health struggles to social isolation, late diagnoses, and limited access to support. Through candid conversations with experts and voices from the autism and Asperger’s community, we break down the myths, misunderstandings, and systemic issues that may be contributing to this troubling trend.Whether you’re an autistic adult, a caregiver, a healthcare professional, or someone passionate about neurodiversity and inclusion, this episode will give you insights, empathy, and actionable ideas. Our goal is to promote autistic advocacy, highlight the importance of mental health resources, and push for better support systems that can improve both the quality—and length—of life for those on the autism spectrum.💙 Key topics we cover:The statistics behind autism and life expectancyHow mental health, suicide risk, and healthcare disparities affect outcomesWhy early support and inclusive systems are essentialWhat needs to change to build a healthier future for autistic adults✨ If you found this episode valuable, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who cares about autism advocacy and support.📲 And don’t forget to visit www.LearnAutism.net to explore empowering, practical online programs made specifically for autistic adults.
