What is a Symptom of Aspergers
Syndrome?
Author:
Dave Angel
In this article I
will explore the symptoms of
Aspergers Syndrome.
There are a number of symptoms
associated with both children and
adults with Aspergers Syndrome.
These symptoms include:
1. Difficulty with social
relationships - Many people with
Aspergers syndrome have problems
in understanding how other people
think and feel.They find it
difficult to understand facial
expressions and all the
non-verbal signals people use to
communicate in everyday life.
This can lead to socially
inappropriate behavior. Some
people with Aspergers want to be
sociable and enjoy the company of
other people whilst others are
happy with their own company.

2.
Difficulty with communication - People
with Aspergers syndrome do not usually
have the speech problems experienced by
people with classic autism, they can be
good talkers. The problems with
communication lie in their inability to
take notice of the reaction of the people
they are talking to; they may continue to
talk about one topic even though the
other person has become (or never was)
interested. Their tone of voice may seem
flat and they fail to use appropriate
facial expression or make eye contact.
3. Lack of imagination - People with
Aspergers syndrome often excel at factual
work, the kind of work that deals with
facts and statistics but they can find it
hard to use their imagination. They may
have narrow areas of interest that they
can become fanatical about and they can
become attached to specific routines, for
example always doing things in the same
order when getting ready to go out in the
morning. If for some reason they cannot
follow their routine they can become
upset and agitated or even angry.
4. Other - Many people with Aspergers
also have difficulties dealing with
change and may lack what is considered to
be basic common sense. However people
with the condition are not
‘backward' in any way and usually
have average, if not higher than average
levels of intelligence. In fact it is
said that many of the so-called
"techno-nerds" that work at the
cutting edge internet and computer
companies in Silicon Valley, near San
Francisco, may well have Aspergers. And
those guys have some serious brain
matter!
| To
give some background; Aspergers
syndrome is a form of autism that
was defined by an Austrian
pediatrician over 50 years ago.
Autistic Spectrum Disorder
(autism) is a life-long
developmental disability that
affects social and communication
skills. Each person with autism
displays different symptoms and
behavior; some people with autism
remain non-verbal and will need
life-long care. Other people with
the condition live independent
lives, hold down careers, go to
university, get married and have
children. |

People with Aspergers syndrome
are usually at this more
‘able' end of the spectrum.
Like autism, Aspergers syndrome,
seems to be caused by a
biological difference in the
brain's development. In many
cases there appears to be a
genetic cause; there are many
cases of autism and Aspergers
syndrome running in the same
family. One study has estimated
that 3 to 7 in 1,000 people have
Aspergers Syndrome. People with
Aspergers Syndrome share many of
the same characteristics as
people with autism but they
usually do not have any
accompanying learning
disabilities.
Those with Aspergers syndrome are
different and unique people in
their own right. However social
problems, unusual verbal and
non-verbal expressions and
specific interests do seem to be
common features of Aspergers.
Sensory problems can be an area
of difficulty for people with
Aspergers. This means that
certain sights, noises, tastes
and textures can bother the
person more than they would a
person without Aspergers.
Problems with food and eating are
common.
Many people mistakenly believe
that children with Aspergers are
simply naughty and that they can
be dealt with in the same way as
children without the condition.
Often, what appears to be
‘bad' behavior on the part
of the child has been triggered
by something that has upset them.
That is not to say that all of
the child's behavior can be
excused because of the Aspergers
or that you shouldn't try to
explain why certain behaviors are
unacceptable. Separating what is
Aspergers and what is
deliberately poor behavior is
difficult, with many parents
claiming to never be entirely
sure if they have got it right.
However a 50-50 approach is
advisable. A person with
Aspergers should try to learn the
necessary social skills to
function in regular, everyday
life but if we are living or
working closely with someone with
the condition we too should try
to enter into their world at
times in order to understand them
better.
