http://www.autism.org.uk/Asperger syndrome has only recently been recognised as a unique disorder. For that reason, the exact number of people with the disorder is unknown, although it is more common than autism. The National Autistic Society says the condition affects people from all nationalities, cultures and social backgrounds. It is more common in boys/men than girls/women.
There currently is no cure for Asperger syndrome, but treatment may improve functioning and reduce undesirable behaviours. Treatment may include a combination of the following:Special educational needs (SEN): Education that is structured to meet the child’s unique educational needs should be provided by schools through each school’s special educational needs co-ordinator (SENCO).
Behaviour therapy: This includes strategies for supporting positive behaviour and decreasing problem behaviour by the child.
Communication, speech, physical or occupational therapy: These therapies are designed to increase the child’s functional abilities. These approaches include applied behavioural analysis (ABA) and speech and language therapy (SLT).
Dietary changes: Some proponents of complementary and alternative medicine suggest special diets or vitamin supplements for help with Asperger syndrome. The NHS says there is little or no evidence to suggest that any of these approaches are effective.
Medication: There are no medications to treat Asperger syndrome itself, but medication may be used to treat specific symptoms, such as anxiety (nervousness), depression, hyperactivity and obsessive-compulsive behaviour. Children with Asperger syndrome are at risk of developing other mental illnesses, such as depression and anxiety disorders. There are various treatment options available for these conditions.Because the level of intelligence often is average or higher than average, many people with Asperger syndrome are able to function very well. They may, however, continue to have problems socialising with others through adulthood. Asperger syndrome cannot be prevented or cured. However, early diagnosis and treatment can improve function and quality of life.
my son has struggled with things that should come easy to others he isnt good in social situations or crowds
he has struggled with reading and writing
but he has ploughed on and managed to get his public service level 1 yes its took him longer than many of the others in his class
and No he wasnt drugged up to achieve this
which is why im so very proud to say i have a child with Autism and if i drove id buy the sticker and support the charity to raise fund to raise awarness
so more people understand, my son isnt a retard or special or disabledhe is less abled to to do things at the same pace as everyone else thats all slow and steady wins the race for him he can do everything he puts his mind to just might take him longer thats all and one of the most caring loving and loyal people you could every wish to meet.

I have NO sympathy for people who want to play both sides of the fence and then have the gall to whine how much it *huuuuurrts, and how hard done by they are when they get a picket SHOVED UP THEIR ASS. Pull your head out of your anus, grow some balls, and take responsibility for your own decisions!”
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrBoth side of the fence….referring to bi ppl?

We are all born dying and you never know when your time is up, so spend it wisely and dont waste it on things and people that dont matter.
