Sleep is a basic need for us as humans. As people go about their days, it is important to remember to make time to sleep. Individuals who live with various disorders such as autism, often have greater issues with trying to fall asleep and more importantly staying asleep. There are many reasons why this is important for both children and adults alike, and there are various methods that can be used to help offset the symptoms that a person experiences with their sleep disorders. Knowledge and awareness are critical for creating a healthier society. Thank you for taking the time to learn about what is known regarding sleep disorders in autistic individuals. The target audience for this information would be parents of children who have either been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, or those that have received a presumed diagnosis.
