People with Asperger's Syndrome often have strengths in areas such as attention to detail, pattern recognition, and logical thinking. These strengths may be attributed to their unique way of processing information and ability to focus intensely on specific subjects of interest.

No, Asperger's Syndrome does not affect one race predominantly. It can occur in individuals of any race or ethnicity.

Asperger's Syndrome is a subtype of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), therefore they are not separate conditions. In the DSM-5, Asperger's Syndrome is no longer a diagnosis, it has been folded into the broader category of ASD.

There is no direct link between having Asperger's syndrome and being gay. Sexual orientation and gender identity are complex and are not determined by a person's neurological condition. Each individual's sexual orientation is unique to them and can vary regardless of any other factors.

There is no definitive evidence to suggest that Jane Austen had Asperger's Syndrome. Some scholars have speculated that her reserved and observant nature could be consistent with traits associated with the condition, but it remains speculative and cannot be confirmed without further evidence.

There is speculation that J.R.R. Tolkien may have displayed some traits associated with Asperger's Syndrome, such as a strong interest in certain topics and difficulty with social interactions. However, without a formal diagnosis, it is not possible to definitively say whether he had the condition or not.

Whitman uses repetition to create a sense of rhythm, build intensity, and emphasize key ideas in his poetry. By repeating words, phrases, or sounds, he emphasizes the importance of certain themes or emotions, inviting readers to engage with his work on a deeper level. This technique also serves to unify his poems and give them a cohesive structure.

Some fiction books for children with characters with autism or Asperger's Syndrome include "Mockingbird" by Kathryn Erskine, "Rules" by Cynthia Lord, and "The London Eye Mystery" by Siobhan Dowd. These books provide insight into the experiences of children with autism or Asperger's Syndrome.

Depends.

If you're looking at something like the military, sure, you can be refused entry. But excluding a person from a particular job based on them being an Asperger rather than them actually not being able to do that job is a violation of the Charter for Human Rights.

Public schools. The more social situations they encounter, the more used to them they will become. You dont want to keep your child at home for years, and them expect them to walk out into the world and be fine.

1. no Aspergers is a human disorder which is impossible for any animal to have.
   

No. We are not physically handicapped. I was a star runner and hurdler in track, and always finished in the top ten at Cross Country Running. I sucked at football, baseball, and basketball.

Actually I found this article that talks about an athlete with aspergers who has won medals in the Special Olympics.

People with autism does not spread to others. It's just starts to happen when they're born. Sometimes if they have A LOT of autism, they may look scary and copy what you do because they have learning problems. How they act could indicate autism such as not listening to adults or repetitively stacking of lining up objects. They might also act weird. And also when they grown up and have children, the child may also have autism because of their gene. People with autism SHOULD go to a special school. You could tell if they have it by they're voice, how they act and of copping others.

No, autism isn't really harmful to others. It won't spread to others. ;)

Yes, of course Autistic people can cry.

Autistic people are as capable as any allistic person of crying, it's a normal human response to pain or happiness. Autistic people often have higher affective empathy which can make Autistic people more sensitive so thus can be more prone to crying as a result of emotional upset.

In a 2004 interview with Terry Gross, he claims to have been "analyzed" as a Tuerette's and Asperger's kid. There is still some speculation about if it was true or not. It was a radio interview so no one could see his facial expression but when asked, he said he was not joking. I personally find it hard to believe that if that were true, why is he not more of an activist for autism?

I myself have been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome and within the last year through my experiments in dating and reading much philosophy and psychology I have came upon some conclusions.

One with Aspergers their brain has an altered Amygdala. The purpose of the Amygdala is the processing and memory of emotional reactions, but also being a part of the limbic system.

Sigmund Freud a known neurologist and founding father of psychoanalysis wrote of narcissism. He stated that when ordinary people are born that as an infant they have needs yet no way of fulfilling them innately which causes something called a narcissistic scar in particular the first such instance. This changes or forms the child's initial concept of reality and builds momentum for something called the death drive. The death drive being the desire to be like how easy it was when one was a child before you had problems and so forth, a destructive desire to embrace death and weakness.

Now those with Aspergers for the most part are not religious perhaps because they have no death drive. There is a persistent feeling throughout my childhood a strange deja vu that would leave me wondering if before I had known the things that I know now which I think contributes to being the paranoia most associate with Aspergers perhaps it comes about because there is no initial Narcicistic scar?

Often those with Aspergers complain about neurotypicals showing signs of Confirmation Bias and Group Think which are both forms of normally accepted Narcissism. The main problems with Aspergers is the inability to use willfull ignorance a form of conscious apathy. When faced with empathizing with someone using such it insights a defensive reaction outbursts of rage which I assume is to reject the other's narcissistic scar.

I explained what my life is like - the challenges and the benefits that being on the autism spectrum brings. I told them that I valued their friendship but couldn't always explain it the right way. It helped a lot, and I became better friends with many of them as a result.

no, as a matter of fact they have shorter vocal cords! This of course makes it much easier to talk, hence the saying that girls talk too much. Also, because boys have longer vocal cords, boys have higher percentages of stuttering problems than girls.

Asperger's Syndrome is diagnosed more often in males than in females. This could be because it occurs more often in males or it could be because it is not as easy to diagnose in females. For example, it is more likely to prompt concern if a boy seems withdrawn than if a girl seems "shy." As another example, it seems that the special interests of boys and girls differ, so a boy who is extremely interested in firearms will bother parents more than a girl who is extremely interested in horses, so they might discuss the boy with the doctor but not the girl.

No. It does not actually worsen, but when a person with Asperger's reaches puberty, he or she can come under tremendous pressure and stress. So even though there is no actual cure for Asperger's, it can be made less noticeable if the person with Asperger's is taught the correct ways to behave. This can mean going to occupational therapists, speech therapists, or the like.

The more positive work you put towards helping the Aspergian, the less noticeable the Asperger's will be.

Even though Asperger's does not worsen, it can become more noticeable during, and just before, the teen years.

Medications such as anticonvulsants , muscle relaxants, and antidepressants may be tried. Opiate medications have also been used. Ketamine, an anesthetic agent, or calcitonin has been shown to be effective in some clinical studies.

Most people think "Aspergers" when they think of "mild autism", because (very fortunately), those with Aspergers (also called "Aspies"), don't have issues with lowered cognitive abilities. But "high functioning" is the part that always trips people up... They assume if Aspies are "bright" then they "function better". Although, what that really means is whether or not they function well within the environment. Aspies can function well, but sometimes there are HFA individuals (High Functioning Autism) who function better, on a day to day basis, than some Aspies.

Yes. people with Tourette's Syndrome can have kids but, there is a very big chance for the child to have Tourette's and also if you have a sibling with Tourette's like i do you also have a chance to have a child with Tourette's or even just the side symptoms of Tourette's like OCD, ADD, ADHD, or anxiety.hope this helps
