Beyond the senses

The bright light hurts the eyes, the strong smell does not allow breathing, and the loud sound hurts the head. The senses are strained to the limit. The only desire is so that it all ends as soon as possible. What is it? We were momentarily immersed in the feelings of people with autism. They feel the world more sharply, and they need to be taught to live with us.

On one of the most ordinary days, Misha changed dramatically. The carefree smile of a child was replaced by endless nervous crises and anxiety. The boy cried all day and did not sleep at night. He stopped playing with toys and responding to his name. The only thing Misha was interested in was food. He was ready to eat without interruption, without feeling full.

Studies have shown that Misha has an Autism Spectrum Disorder. In this state, the child “withdraws into himself,” forgets all the previously acquired skills. Interaction with the outside world becomes incredibly difficult for him. TO prevent Misha from shutting down completely, he needs regular classes with specialists. The main task of rehabilitation is to learn to distinguish emotions, control your mood, and master basic self-care skills.

After  two months after rehabilitation, the boy began to look out of his cocoon. There was a curiosity in his eyes. Exercises with a balance board began to give pleausre, and musical toys and a ball became interesting. The kid again learned to climb the stairs and jump, began to respond to his name! Misha began to examine himself in the mirror and understand that he sees his own reflection, and not just a moving object.

In order not to lose the achieved results and adapt to everyday life, Misha needs to constantly undergo rehabilitation. Without regular classes, Misha will experience extreme self-isolation and zero skills in self-care.

We are going to solicit funds for 65 correction sessions. We are sure that they will bring Misha closer to the desired healthy life!
