JsMum Report post Posted November 26, 2009 Hi Carly nice to meet you I would contact NAS to see if there is anything spersific for adults in your area such as social groups or AS groups, they also publish a magazine for young people and adults with AS. There is also OAASIS a support line for Aspergers Syndrome and they may know more too, have you got any books on AS such as Tony Attwood and Temple Grandin not sure what litriture youve come across and aware you may of already with your father and brother having AS. Adult services are getting better here but many are independant and so funding it can be an issue, so check out what might be available throw independant services too. There is a spersific board for Adults with AS and adolescents called beyond adolescents this may be a particular interest to you. See you for now maybe see you on the boards.

Im new here too, un dx'ed AS, but also I dont have friends although I do have a husband but he tries to be understanding, but I guess he can only handle so much. It can get lonely ... Each day is different. Anyways, Im up for chatting any time, Im also learning more about AS and looking to get a dx, as well as find some sort of group etc, anything that can help, or coping skills, or whatever. take care, ttfn Vanna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
