adult autism regression

I have been struggling lately with Aspergers, I feel I have regressed in many fields of operation and I am seeking information that adults can regress. I have read on the net, that regression can be the caused by stress and mistaken for depression in people with autism.

I know regression forms part of the autism model in childhood, but can it also in adulthood ? or is it just stress and lack of coping mechanisms. I feel like everything I knew or trusted is gone ?

  • That is right on the money Intenseworld, you are describing my daily life too and problems associated with it. The environment out stripping my coping abilities. The high-functioning in the eyes of the world, but actually highly struggling and airing my problems to others in too complex way. My body and mind are at constant battle with the world by stress that is brewing by problem issues, benefits, social contact, simple tasks all adding up to hell.

    can I add and the government of this country and the NAS.
