Autism: Autism is best diagnosed by experienced professionals. However, you might notice that the person does not appear connected with others, has poor eye contact, and does not communicate with them. There are varying degrees of autism, and with some you might not be able to tell anything is wrong. Asperger's is part of autistic spectrum disorders; many of these people are extremely high functioning.
