Not really Elfie. Symptoms can vary from person to person and just because you have *some* does not mean it's Aspergers. The guide is very much correct. Here are some symptoms below. Bare in mind - A person with one or two of these symptoms does not necessarily have Aspergers syndrome. To be diagnosed with Aspergers syndrome, a person must have a combination of these symptoms and significant trouble with social situations.

• Have heightened sensitivity and become overstimulated by loud noises, lights, or strong tastes or textures
• Dislike any changes in routines
• Appear to lack empathy
• Not pick up on social cues and may lack inborn social skills, such as being able to read others' body language, start or maintain a conversation, and take turns talking
• Have a formal style of speaking that is advanced for his or her age. For example, the child may use the word "beckon" instead of "call" or the word "return" instead of "come back."
• Talk a lot, usually about a favorite subject. One-sided conversations are common. Internal thoughts are often verbalized

Oh so that's how you spell Asperger's Syndrome...

Thanks, amazing guide guys! ;)

To be honest, aspergers just seems like the lack of skills being developed which could just be enhanced by being forced into uncomfortable situations, which would then lead these problems being resolved. In all honesty I don't see why there is such a big deal about it. Also bear in mind my cousin has this and his parents are too lenient in my opinion.

You cannot cure aspergers by forcing somebody with it to do something which makes them have 'melt downs' or outbursts of frustration and anger. Its a none curable thing and is there for life, no matter what you do to try to correct it. You can only find ways to cope with it.

Then you seem to know little of it. It is more complex than what you think by forcing people with aspergers to do something that they find hard to do or be in that situation will make it worse. It will create more problems. There is no quick fix for it, theres actually no fix for it at all. We have to find ways to cope with it because it is a life long condition. Meaning you cannot cure it.

Or perhaps you're making it more complicated than it needs to be? Besides you didn't provide the evidence I requested.

The evidence is on websites, use your own fingers to type it into google. Or are you far to ignorant to do so?

Well I couldn't find any test which is similar, and with your knowledge on the subject surely you have the proof you need.
