Therapies for people with Aspergers?

Is there such a thing?

I'm now refusing medication because I believe the doctor just wants to put me on them and it will all be fine but its not a long term solution so when I came off them again I'd be back to square 1. He told me therapies won't work but I told him what I need is somebody who is aspergers trained that can teach me the coping skills I so clearly need so he is looking into it....

    Now there's an idea Jon.... I'm back on it, relunctantly, sure they prescribe it cause it's the only thing they can offer. Maybe we should set up a "refuse to medicate/find us another option" action group, have a march or two. Actually, although I was half joking it's something to think about.

    .....maybe a post on this forum seeking a 'show of hands' for those who believe that we are being fobbed off with medication?
