My son is 13 and no one in the medical field has told me his level. He is a level 3 though. This article explains a lot. https://www.verywellhealth.com/what-are-the-thr...

Making Sense of the Three Levels of Autism

https://www.verywellhealth.com/what-are-the-three-levels-of-autism-260233

My son is adhd (with ODD) and autistic, I felt kind of lost too, and still do tbh. But this site definitely is a great place to start. I also have much more patience knowing his brain is wired a little different. We had his psychiatrist approve an emotional support cat, and we are on a waiting list for behavioral therapy. We’ve heard it’s very helpful. Medications are available of course! I found tho that adderall gave my kiddo anxiety and made sleeping harder (which is already a hard issue for us). So he is on guanfacine currently which I love because it works like an SSRI would for his impulse control.

Thank you! That did help! I think my son is level one. I’m asking my sister what she thinks 🤣

You're welcome 😀
