Should they keep the 'Asperger's Syndrome' label? Should these people be treated better in jobs?
i've noticed before asperger's syndrome considered part of autistic spectrum, companies , people treat them better if knew (it treated adhd in lot aspects) , it's treated intellectual disability when can't have intellectual disability diagnosed it. non-autistic person bipolar depression has been following disabilities criteria on fifteen years, think huge mistake since link more discrimination , confusion in work environments meaning receive less benefits. despite popular belief, people asperger's syndrome closer being neurotypicals being autistic. can communicate world, tend have normal intelligence quotient, can learn social skills help, learn differences between right , wrong on average , have no academic delays autistic people (unless have learning disability, happen admit).
people asperger's syndrome 'different', it's more in calibur of severity disorder 'adhd' rather 'autism' if you've seen autistic person. not cases of asperger's syndrome mild i'm describing admit, more overcome difficulties fact minimum intelligence quotient diagnosed 80 (which above intellectually disabled). may take things literally, happens exact opposite since i've seen aspie's gifted sarcasm, idioms , jokes 5 year old indicates perhaps asperger's syndrome can exact opposite well? not aspie's gifted, lot of them genius's tasks better else , have easier time learning , expressing autistic people usually. sure, tantrums , obsessions common due anxiety, compare them ones in autism (yes i'm saying 2 different things). of course, motor coordination issues displaying in asperger's.
now, there high functioning autism said link giftedness @ same time, includes verbal delay/learning delays despite popular belief doesn't. autistic people may never able communicate, , cognitive delay common. autistic people may have mental ages of 4 @ age of 19 , learning social skills/facial expressions more difficult. unlike people asperger's syndrome, lot of autistic people never live independently, head college, have friends, drive, or married , think of more severe disorder. of course, autistic people genius's special talents aspie's are, still have more severe issues. autistic people don't respond own names aspie's can, how come combining label?
can see, view them 2 separate disorders bit more compared adhd , asperger's syndrome. i'm not embarrassed admit these views regardless of other people think, , may add ocd, schizophrenia , adhd onto autistic spectrum since share similarities. autism more life long disorder, while asperger's syndrome more of childhood-teen disorder (if that) people have normal mental ages on average. people both disorders should treated well, in different way. aspie's @ least should never treated retards or little babies since can't either diagnosed it, , neither should autistic people (but these people need help). autism learning disorder, asperger's syndrome not learning disorder despite fact can have separate ones @ same time. people asperger's syndrome can (not always) more given credit if people give them chance.
