this is the first summary of results [90% improved, 260cases]
i've seen since educational tv aired the "first hopeful cure for autism" (president of AMA Autism Board, established 82 years ago)...
on the stateline show they said they were going to study 1200 cases nationwide, but i haven't been able to find results for that.

overall calmer attitude and much lower parental costs were noted.

shalom in Yahshua.

[Accepted]

As a Christian who is also a High-functioning autism sufferer I have long debated this problem. I've only recently come to the autism diagnosis for my problems, so for years I've struggled to understand why certain sin patterns seem so ingrained and unbreakable. I've had lots of well-meaning Christians say that we are free in Christ to chose not to sin. But this has caused huge struggles in me - all in vain - leading me into deep despair and depression.

I've given up on what other people think of me. Let them think what they like. It is God's opinion of me that counts - and no other. So, I appeal to him. I stand naked (as it were) before him. He can see everything I am, every thought, even action good and bad. I make my life an open book to him. What does he think?

He totally accepts me, just as I am. This message keeps coming to me. Though at times I present my worst sides to him, he sees the lot, and does not turn him face from me.

But how can I live as a Christian with Autism? In years of searching for help and understanding, I have found it in no one - except Jesus. Christians, Counsellors, Doctors...they all wash their hands of me. The autistic are modern day lepers (in my experience) - the message is the same as ever; people cannot cope with what they cannot understand. I don't want people's sympathy or kind words. I need help. But none can supply it. None but Jesus. So, actually, this dreadful condition is also my place of greatest dependency. I need Jesus moment-by-moment to live. He empowers me to function in life to do things which come naturally to others, but I have to fight for.

If Jesus has not seen fit to cure me, or to release me from the sin-traps of autism, then who am I to complain. However, there is one sin which I am keenly aware of - the sin of failing to depend on him. I've found that making him my source for living, my number one, my all is the most effective way of combatting sin. Not that the struggle stops, but that now it is His responsibility as well.
