Although there are various therapies available there is no such thing as a complete cure for autism, it is a physical difference in the brain itself which impairs it's function when compared to the non-autistic brain. Sometimes the problem is a related issue as opposed to the autism itself eg: I have aspergers, mild autism but I also have a sensory disorder with it; even if my autism was cured there is no evidence to suggest my other issues would be positively impacted. Autism is lifelong, but depending on severity, the presence of other disorders and the level of good medical, family and community support it's needn't be hell, it can be fairly livable.
