Allism is a neurological condition first named by Andrew Main in 2003.[1]
Allism affects approximately 56 out of every 57 people.[2]
Symptoms[edit]
People with allism may lack the ability to use self-regulatory repetitive behaviours, even when encouraged to do so by others.[3]
People with allism frequently talk with no substance, and making redundant utterances (such as informing someone of a meteorological phenoma that is already clearly observable).[4]
People with allism often feel a strong urge towards frequent socialisation, including with people they have had no previous social contact with.[3] However, they often struggle to communication with autistic people.[5]
People with allism often have very limited sensory experiences, with most sensory imput being dulled.[2]
People with allism often fail to develop special interests.[2] This can make it difficult for them to choose a career.
People with allism often have an intense need for eye contact while communicating, which can lead to staring.
Causes[edit]
There is no known single cause of allism, but it has been linked to seatbelt use.[6] It may have genetic components.
Allism has no cure.
