The ongoing adjustments creates more anxiety as we are constantly moving back and forth from less restricted to more restricted environments. The process of re-integration can be daunting.

Dr Kiti has published much of the information in this article in a chapter in the book “Life After Lockdown: Resetting Perceptions of Autism.”
