Here are 3 physical autism symptoms that you probably didn't know were signs of autism.

Autism has a large scale of notable traits or (symptoms) however we do not tend to use the word symptoms as these are more traits than symptoms.

Although we talk a lot about the mental health and neurological side of autism, little is discussed about the physical side of autism.

Here are 3 signs of autism that are physically impacting on an autistic person.

1. Monotone Talking
Autistic people will tend to talk in a single tone of voice, known as monotone talking. This is very common with verbal autistic individuals.

2. GI Disorders
Among many traits of autism that can appear, like anxiety and mental health issues, having IBS and other GI disorders are super common within the autistic community. Little is known why but we do know it is apparent.

3. Self Harm
Self harm seems like a very strong word to use but it is well documented that autistic people may hit their head with their hands quite hard and this happens during meltdowns this is a form of self harm.

I’d love to know your thoughts so please pop it down below if you have any thoughts to add to this.
