Hello. I don't know where in the world this happens, but at least here in Canada, it was autism awareness day. Did people see or hear of any events in support of people with autism yesterday? I am just curious. I know someone had a haunted house thing that costed to get into and it went to a charity to help kids with autism. It was also mentioned at the movie theatre called Cineplex here in Canada. I wore blue yesterday too, not knowing it was autism awareness day that day. Do you think blue is an appropriate autism awareness colour or you don't care? Thanks for any response.

Social anxiety disorder, GAD, OCD, and panic attacks

Maybe it is. I just looked it up and world autism awareness day is April 2nd. I found a bunch of articles on it on the Internet.

In the UK a TV series ("The A word") along with a documentary are going to start on BBC 1 soon in an attempt to make autism better known
