Asperger’s Syndrome
Asperger’s Syndrome is a form of autism where the individual may present with average or above-average intelligence, and fewer problems with speech, but still have difficulties with understanding and processing language and social situations.
The primary symptoms of the condition manifest in the form of persistent difficulties with social communication and social interaction, along with restricted and repetitive patterns of behaviors, activities, or interests since early childhood, to the extent that these “limit and impair everyday functioning”.
