• Flat affect (few facial expressions)
• Poor prosody (melody of speech)
• Hyper and hypo sensitivities to sensory simulation (noises, tastes, textures, colors, lights)

• Trivia obsessions
• Digestive problems
• Sleep issues
• Difficulty with transitions
• Preferences for routine or ritual
• Self stimming
• Melt downs
• Talking too much or too little
• Doesn't understand why you're offended
