Advice for a married friend please

Hi, I have a good friend who suspects her husband has Asperger's Syndrome. He is becoming increasingly rigid, taking things literally, has no concept of her needs with the kids and much more. She feels there's no way she would ever be able to talk to him about this or get him to  seek a diagnosis, but she wants to try and understand more about what might be casuing the behaviour she sees and to try and find ways to make things better for them both, and their kids. I can offer her some advice as the parent of two Asperger's boys but feel there must be people in this community who are better able to help. Books or wesbite links would be apprecaited as well as the sharing of personal experience. Many thanks in advance.

  • I don't know how much use this is, but I know that when I find myself becoming more rigid and taking things litteraly its because I'm under pressure/not in a good place, and running low on mental resorces needed to run the aspy to neurotypical emulator.

    So, is he happy? or facing problems besides more autisic driven behaviors?
