Synopsis

If you have Aspeger’s syndrome (AS) or your child or partner does, life can be challenging, difficult and emotionally draining. Help is at hand. From coming to terms with a diagnosis and receiving
specialist counselling to pursuing careers and maintaining long term relationships, this essential guide takes a positive and practical approach to living with Asperger’s.

Using tried and tested strategies from those who have lived with the condition, you will discover how to develop communication, how to deal with obsessive behaviour and how to get further help and support. Information for those living with a partner suffering from Asperger’s is also provided.

Chapters are also included for parents whose child has recently been diagnosed with Asperger’s,
together with advice for teachers and carers.

This book won’t pretend that living with Asperger’s is easy, but it will help you to understand and live positively with the condition.
