Can undiagnoised Asperger Syndrome lead to mental health issues?

please help has anyone got any ideas or proof to whether or not undianoised Asperger Syndrome can lead onto mental health issues in the future. I have a partner who is currently going through getting dianoised and the opputuinity arose at college to do a project on an area of my choice, so i decided to do it on Asperger Syndrome as i have found myself glued to the internet for hours at a time trying to find out as much as i can. I feel that more needs to be done to make people aware of the effects of autism and how varied and common it is. Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated.

  • If it is unddiagnosed it could lead to mental health issues as you do not get the  help you need and the people round you might go mad if they do not understand you.

    Above is only part of the story.

    Autism can lead to mental health issues as many people with Autism have Co-Exisitng conditions but having said that it is important for Autistic people to have the right support.
