Does anyone have any insight or experience on how adults with Asperger's behave? I'm looking for information about how adults with Asperger's Syndrome might think, act, and interact with others. Any advice or stories you can share about your own experiences would be really helpful. I'm interested in hearing about any challenges or successes you or someone you know has had with Asperger's. Thanks so much for any help you can provide.

Social Interaction

Adults with Asperger's Syndrome (AS) can interact socially in ways that are quite different from those of other adults. They may struggle to understand the nuances of social interactions, such as body language, facial expressions, and verbal communication. They may have difficulty expressing themselves emotionally, and may appear to be unemotional or aloof. They may also be unusually sensitive to external stimuli, such as sounds, smells, and visual stimuli.

Communication

Adults with AS may have difficulty understanding the nuances of verbal communication, such as sarcasm, jokes, or metaphors. They may also struggle to express themselves verbally, and may have difficulty with word choice and grammar. They may be overly literal in their interpretations of language, or become easily frustrated when trying to communicate.

Behavior

Adults with AS may have difficulty controlling their impulses or emotions. They may be prone to outbursts, and may engage in repetitive behaviors, such as hand flapping or rocking. They may also be overly focused on their own interests, and may have difficulty understanding the perspectives and feelings of others. They may also have difficulty with organization and planning, and may struggle with tasks that require multitasking or long-term planning.

Adults with Asperger's may behave differently from person to person. However, they often experience difficulties with social interaction and communication, may have difficulty interpreting social cues and understanding interpersonal relationships, and may display an intense focus on specific interests. They may also be overly sensitive to sensory stimulation, struggle with anxiety and depression, and have difficulty with executive functioning skills such as organizing and planning. It's important to recognize that adults with Asperger's can live productive and fulfilling lives, and can learn strategies to effectively manage their symptoms.
