Adults with Aspergers

I too am interested in this thread onmyown. One of my DGC has just been diagnosed as on the autistic spectrum and I am worried about how they will cope. Like all grandparents we only want for them to be happy.

Thanks that works

Sorry Jane that link doesn't work for me.

Try www.asperclick.co.uk . Don't know where you live but there are quite good services in the Lothian area. There is a Scottish ASD strategy which focuses on adults. In England there's also a strategy but I don't know how it's getting on. I can say more if you have specific questions

You've started the thread yourself onmyown

My daughter has a friend who is on the spectrum we also suspect my son is. It was DD friend who suggested we have DS tested. As her friend obviously knows the signs. We are seeing GP initially after Christmas.

I was googleing last week and saw that Aspergers is a term no longer used by the professionals and that patients are simply deemed to be on the Autistic spectrum. It didn't give any explanation as to why.

I'm sure there must be support forums out there. Though I haven't looked.

I dont have much knowledge of this, but I will bump this thread for you.
