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....

  • Hi,

    I heard from my social worker today, she has phoned the health centre and said there are post diaganostic services I can access and counsellors who specialise in aspergers which is all good (although slightly daunting!!!). Tomorrow I should find out the finer details of what, when, who etc. Just got to wait for PCT funding now - given it took them 6 months to sort it so I can get a diagnosis so could be in for a long wait!!
