You can read specific details at the apa website <www.Psych.Org> however, it is best to get a consult from a comprensive team of professionals because this a subtle diagnosis and not a simple check list.

Question 3

Socially awkward: These toddlers to varying degrees have awkwardness socializing with other children and adults. They may prefer solitary play, be interested n objects as much as people, become overwhelmed in busy environments, need time to adjust to changes in routine, and may talk less than peers and in a monotone.

Question 4

what are the signs of being a sociopath and having aspergers syndrome?

Accepted Answer

Different motives: Here's a simplistic account from a non-psychiatrist who's seen a lot. Both treat others badly. Sociopaths are indifferent to the feelings of others, and cause pain because they enjoy doing it. They don't care. Aspies cannot understand the feelings of others and do not mean to be jerks. They are very grateful when guided to being more diplomatic and able to read others.

Question 7

how to tell if my boyriend who is 22 has aspergers autism? what are the signs?

Accepted Answer

Many pluses: Whether this is a real entity or not, aspies focus on narrow topics, often science, and must learn (often the hard way) the social skills & intuition that come naturally to others. Many / most are happy & productive, but can be jerks without realizing it. Best rx is education & practice with the social skills. Accept & don't criticize this aspect of who he is; there are many far worse men out there!

Question 8

i have 2 kids one has a major heart defect and has aspergers syndrome. my other was born 100% healthy.what are my odds of having another healthy baby?

Accepted Answer

It Depends: There may be more factors to consider before arriving at reasonably predictable odds. I suggest, you seek out a medical geneticist for your best answer. There are dna tests needed along with a precise history from both sides of the family; then the odds can be calculated. It would, in my opinion, be unethical to give you the answer you want without having much more data. Good luck.
