My Answers

My son has Asperger's Syndrome. How is it treated?
dear mom, I am happy to relate that most of us need a custom recipe for what ales us. In regard to treating Aspergers There is no one recipe for all. some people I feel benefit most on targeting anxiety as the underlying issue that affects day to day emotions and functioning. Others need help with ADHD like symptoms. Some need medication to target aggression often related to difficulty tolerating an ever changing environment. environmental support of consistent expectations, reliable rewards and space for down time can also mean very much to such a person. helping someone find areas of strength with support to let go of other things that the person may not care about is also very important. exposure to areas of study and interests can give hope and encouragement that we need people who can live and think beyond the box.
