Asperger Syndrome As A Milder Form Of Autism
There is a difference between autism and Asperger Syndrome. Language is not affected in Asperger Syndrome, and since the symptoms are not obvious, it is difficult to pin down as a disorder. Also, it does not develop in early life, but seems to come on at a later stage in life. It is difficult to deal with, therefore if either your child or you find difficulty in communicating or suffer from behavioral attitudes in a social environment, you should consider it necessary to visit your family doctor who will be able to assist you.
There have been a number of distinguished and successful people who have suffered from Asperger Syndrome. According to historians, even Mozart and Einstein had been victims of this disorder. But, at the same time, the fact is that it is not to be associated with mental retardation. The people suffering from this disorder are usually highly intelligent and have keen mental faculties. Just as an autistic child struggles to interact in a group, a person with Asperger Syndrome finds it extremely difficult to adjust to a social environment. Children can be victims of unfair treatment in school if this disorder is left unchecked. In fact, once a child knows that he has Asperger Syndrome, he is aware that he can get help which is a relief to him instead of feeling that he is different from everyone else. So, correct diagnosis can help all around.
Symptoms Of Asperger Syndrome To Watch Out For
There are symptoms that are similar to autism, namely, being in a confused state when in a social gathering. Another symptom is the inability to deal with change – the person would like everything to be the same – a sudden change of scene is extremely disturbing and may cause anxiety.
Sometimes a person with Asperger Syndrome may be impolite without necessarily meaning to be that way – he has difficulty in judging other people’s mental processes. Another symptom is focusing on interests that capture his attention, but those with Asperger Syndrome are more controlled than their autistic counterpart.
If you see yourself with any of these symptoms or if you find them in a family member or close friend, you should seek medical help, and your doctor will be able to assist you with advice, and if need be, refer you to a specialist in the field. He will also recommend that you study all you can about the disorder and thus gain an insight into the symptoms and how it can be treated. It is best to get timely help, so that you can move on with your life.
