Asperger’s Syndrome – for youth or adults, this is a challenging neurological condition. With this condition, there is usually a combination of having great capacity for remembering some or most kinds of information and then using it to logically work toward problem solving. A challenging part of Asperger’s can be that other people don’t recognize these talents and focus only on the ways that it’s difficult to be flexible sometimes and to be responsive in social situations. Sensory irritations, easily being distracted and being overly focused on pet topics can also be ways that people overlook the talents of the individual. Those with Asperger’s can learn to be defensive about being overlooked. I accept the unique struggle of having the Asperger’s condition and work supportively with youth and adults to improve interactions with others, to learn to value their unique abilities, and to validate their own emotions by learning to not be overwhelmed by them.
