Autism enhances characteristics such as loyalty and focus which help those with the condition at work and in their relationships with others, experts have found.
A study examining the lives of autistic adults shows the traits which come with having the condition can be useful, but also a burden.
Those who took part in the research said they are able to hyperfocus, show attention to detail, had good memory, and were creative. They also said having autism made them more honest, loyal, and increased their empathy for animals and other autistic people.
