What's the Difference Between Asperger Syndrome (AS) and Autism?

in #health7 years ago

Hello Friends,

Here I am Lucia again trying to find a good and virtuous topic to inscribe and share at the same time to learn about.

So the topic for today is "Difference Between Asperger Syndrome (AS) and Autism".


They are so close to the symptoms that it is difficult to distinguish them, but there are some guidelines available to help. It is that relationship between them and the external signals that can be understood most easily. While one in every 100 Australians suffers from autism, it seems that many more can be autistic, even without knowing it. Both can lead full and active lives in the right conditions.

The autistic child will present early symptoms in the development of his brain. They are inclined towards repetitive behavior and restricted movements and interests. Some children will hit the wall constantly with their hands, others with their heads. They lack skills for social communication and interaction, so they tend to be loners who are happier by themselves.

It is a lifelong condition and basically affects how they relate to their environment and to other people. They may also have an intense interest in a specific topic. They may also have sensitivity to particular sounds that make them scream or hide. That can be anything from a car horn, vacuum cleaner or someone screaming.

They can also be sensitive to textures. This makes it difficult with the use of some clothes that can disturb them. That does not even have to be in them. Apparently, it is four times more likely to affect children than girls.

Asperger's son is a little different, although lately it is known as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It usually does not appear in the small child that can begin to develop normally without language delay. This means that it is usually not diagnosed in early childhood and may even go unnoticed until after puberty or early adulthood.

Many adults may not be aware until relationship problems arise. Although at this time there is no evidence that there is a genetic link that many researchers believe exists. That is based on the fact that it runs in families. This is an area that is being worked on at this time to try to discover which gene is affected.

Meanwhile, we can see from this brief analysis that both Asperger and autism may have similar results, but they are very different in their symptoms, at least in the first years.
