Thanks so much for taking the time to reply, I shared it with my husband. Our son is 18, besides autism he was also diagnosed with intellectual disability. He’s non speaking, however, he can say some words. Over the years, we have learned to recognize the signs of him feeling stressed out, he gives a certain look and starts snapping his fingers or asking for water. He also stims when he’s really excited and likes to jump. He still rocks while sitting down.
Have a great day!😁
