Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among caregivers of autistic children in specified centers in Karachi City, Pakistan. There were ۲۵۵ participants out of which ۱۱۱ were formal caregivers and ۱۴۴ were informal caregivers. Depression, anxiety, and stress scale (DASS) was used to collect the data.

In addition, ۷۵.۰% demonstrated mild, ۷۱.۱% moderate, ۸۵.۷% severe, and ۹۵.۰% extremely severe stress (P<۰.۰۱).
