double risk of addiction

mood and anxiety disorders

low reward-setpoint

more vulnerable to addiction

increases risk of addiction

untreated ADHD

impulsivity

highly correlated with nicotine, alcohol, and cannabis addictions

ASD

mechanisms in place in prenatal development

ASD

presents with differences in brain anatomy and function

ASD

behavioral presentation early in life

ASD

presentation evolves over time

ASD

development impacts many areas of development and produces an atypical trajectory across most domains

"autistic disturbances of affective contact"

'early infantile autism'

'Kanner's syndrome'

prevalence has increased by 6-15% each year from 2002 to 2010
