Hi I am new and would like some help

[twisted thread]

I am new to this - I really need help with talking to other people who live with and adult with Aspergers. I do and recent behaviour is making the realtionship very difficult. I am worried he is ill and depressed this is making me depressed and unhappy. If anyone can help me or suggest somewhere I can get help it would be great relief.

There might be a local parents/carers branch in your area or a local ASD social group for you son to help reduce the isolation associated with ASDs.

 

Good luck

Thank you for the links the person I am struggling to communicate with is actually my husband (though, lol his behaviour can be much more like spoilt teenager at times). I guess I need adults with Aspergers supprot groups.

Hi, there's adults with AS around here too - I'm one of them

Would you be able to describe the behaviours a bit so that people could get an idea of how to help?

Hello, I'm a husband with many traits of Aspergers. Can you describe your husband's traits?

Can you get to Loughborough? if so there is a partners support group called translate. i have met someone that

runs it and he is very on the ball. Also parents of adult groups tend to accept partners of adult groups.
