SSG (Join to see) No, it does not. Autism is not a mental illness but rather a description of people who are not “neurotypical.”

It's a neurological abnormality, not a mental illness. Illnesses require treatment to "fix" the problem, a neurological abnormality requires support to live with the condition.

They are two very different things.
