Why Autism Does Not Need To Be Cured
What It Was Like Growing Up With Autism
Picture me years ago: I was shy, unconfident, and only able to talk to my close group of friends who knew me well. Fast forward to today: having gone through nine ear surgeries, endured eight years of bullying, and learned to live safely with spinal stenosis and to accommodate chronic tinnitus.

Why Autism Does Not Need To Be Cured
Numerous charities raise money to support the Autism community. This support includes funding: for research to identify the cause of ASD; to promote advocacy efforts to ensure that needs of individuals on the spectrum are met; for programs to educate and enrich the lives of those who are on the spectrum. Some charities raise money to pursue a cure for autism. While I can see the value in knowing what causes ASD; and I definitely can see the necessity for programming to educate and enrich the lives of those with ASD; I do not really think that money spent looking for a cure for ASD is well spent. Why does Autism need to be cured?

Picture me years ago: I was shy, unconfident, and only able to talk to my close group of friends who knew me well. Fast forward to today: having gone through nine ear surgeries, endured eight years of bullying, and learned to live safely with spinal stenosis and to accommodate chronic tinnitus, I am an entrepreneur and developing a public speaking career. I am also Autistic. My persistence and my compassion for other people are responsible for where I am today.

About Jimmy Clare
Jimmy Clare is a motivational speaker, Autism Advocate, author, and founder of CrazyFitnessGuy. But before he started his career as a speaker it was a bumpy road when he was younger.
Jimmy's Biography
Jimmy was born on October 9th in Millburn New Jersey United States. After the birth of Jimmy, doctors told Jimmy's parents that he will not be able to walk without braces or crutches. His family took him home and loved him for who he is.
He was also bullied in school from elementary school all the way up to high school. He then stood up to all the bullies and got some of them expelled.
He went through nine ear surgeries, and three surgeries in one day. One for 6 wisdom teeth, 2 moles, and the last ear surgery that made number 9.
He just keeps proving people wrong with his persistence time after time again.
On top of those obstacles, he lives with spinal stenosis every day. For those that don't know what Spinal Stenosis is it's where the spine is pressing tight on the spinal cord. Which makes it hard for him to turn his head from left to right or up and down.
What Makes Jimmy So Unique?
He is Autistic but he likes to refer to it as "slightly Autistic" because he doesn't have it severe like others.
Dedicated And Continues To Better Himself
Every day he continues to better himself by working out 6 to 9 times a week. three days a week he practices kickboxing while on the other days he works out on Beachbody on Demand. That's why people refer to him as CrazyFitnessGuy.
He also enjoys reading books that he schedules time out of the day to read. But that's not all he also likes to listen to podcasts about improving oneself and time management.
He is currently majoring in media studies at my local community college and once he has completed his certificate, he plans on getting his degree in a four-year school. His end goal is to become a motivational speaker to inspire people around the world.
On April 12th, 2020 Jimmy also started his own podcast called CrazyFitnessGuy Healthy Living Podcast. He is almost finished with season one and already preparing for another season.
Practices What He Preaches
Jimmy Clare practices what he preaches every day even if he messes up he keeps trying. He is one of a kind that no one can replace or replicate him.
What Makes Him Different From Other Public Speakers?
He is no ordinary public speaker. He was diagnosed with Non-Verbal Learning Disorder also known as Autism and this is what he considers to be his unique advantage.
There was a point in his life where he thought being different was a bad thing and he was scared that something was wrong with him. But he was younger then and he didn't quite understand what Autism was, this has changed now that he is an adult.
He Has Experienced A Lot of Uphill Battles In Life...
Growing up he was considered to be a little bigger around the middle than other kids his age and it may have been that his diet wasn't the greatest plus he was on medication that caused weight gain (side-effects). However, it was necessary for him to take the medication to help stabilize his moods and emotions.
The weight gain led to bullying and as a result, he was determined to come off his meds and he did over time. He got bullied so often and it was so bad that he would go home in tears every day. It was a horrible experience and he vowed to change all of that. He lost the weight. Jimmy stood up to the bullies and put an end to the bullying.
