Useful Strategies

Jon

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).

  • Hi Jon and Hope. Thanks for your input. My main problem just now is that I am renting a room at a friends ( my only friend ) house untill my new flat becomes ready, I have been there for six month now and although i am greatfull for her hospitality, at the weekends she has friends over and lots of comings and goings with things happening and music playing. I do my very best to fit in and be socible but i find by Sunday I am realy stressed. The good news is that i will get the keys to my new flat on the 20/06/13 and will be living on my own again so i will be able to get a routine for myself and hopefully start to look forward to the weekends. May I ask your advice on another matter ? I have been only resently been dianosed with ASD and my friend say's that i should tell my boss at work that I have ASD but i don't know if i should or not. Altough she is A very nice and undrestanding person ( My boss that is ) and i have worked with her for ten years now but i don't feel that she needs to know.
