Asperger Syndrome

Outcomes

Individuals with Asperger syndrome, like other individuals on the autism spectrum vary enormously but many will find it hard to cope with the problems that life throws at them.

Without timely and informed help and support there can be potentially devastating consequences for the person concerned and those around them.

These may include extreme anxiety and distress, injury, withdrawal and exclusion.

Due to the complex and uneven nature of their difficulties it is vital for them to have sensitive and appropriate help and support through school and at university, work and other key stages.

Without such support they are vulnerable and likely to lead stressful, socially isolated and disadvantaged lives.
