Useful Strategies

I was thinking - people often talk about useful strategies and coping strategies. I know that I have developed strategies to best cope with Asperger's Syndrome. The problem is actually identifying these strategies. Some I can think of:

  • I wear ear defenders to reduce intrusive noise.
  • I try to plan things well to lessen the stress of a situation.
  • I try to be aware that I may not be communicating well - and tell the person.
  • I try to facilitate written communication over verbal.

Does anyone have any useful strategies that they would like to share? I know its pretty broad in scope and the strategies may be quite specific to the person but they may still be of use to others (including me Smile).

  • When i have to do a one to one meeting I take a pen and note pad and when i find I can no longer make eye contact I start to take notes and in this way the person I am talking to see's me taking notes and thinks that i am taking an intrest in what there are saying and also looking at the note pad helps me break eye contact with them without seeming to be rude.
