Religion itself does not affect ones chances of developing mental or physical conditions. However, there is also an ethnic component to being Jewish. Because people of an ethnic group are more likely to marry others who share their ethnicity, they would have greater chances of sharing the same genes for certain illnesses. That explains why Jewish persons (as well as Cajuns and southeastern Canadians) are more likely to have children with Tay-Sachs Disease.
There is no evidence that ethnic Jews are more likely to have Asperger's Syndrome.
One factor in Aspergers and autism seem to be low vitamin D levels prenatally and during infancy. There are genetic variations in the vitamin D receptors, meaning that some people need much more. To help explain differences by gender, females seem to have a slight less need for vitamin D. So add all these factors together, and it would seem that males of African descent, born with the variant vitamin D genes living in a place like Russia or Canada born to vitamin D deficient mothers who breastfeed would have a much greater chance of developing autism and related disorders than others.
Aspie = Person with Aspergers Syndrome. It's friendly slang that those with Aspergers Syndrome use to refer to themselves. People without Aspergers Syndrome are referred to as NTs - Neurotypicals.
No.
We face the challenges of intolerant people, disorganization and insomnia.
If Aspergers Syndrome runs in your family, then it is very common. But it is uncommon if it does not run in the mother's side of the family. There are about 1,000,000 Aspergers People in the United Kingdom, I have it so I know.
It's spelled "Aspergers" and yes, they do get depressed.
Yes they can. People with Asperger's shockingly and usu. have a combination such as having Aspergers and OCD, or ADD, depression, anxiety, and Tourettes. In some cases developing schizophrenia can occur.
don't know don't care blabla
I have aspergers and find myself a chatterbox to a friend and rather silent to my mother. IDK :p She gets annoyed though but what can i say? People with aspergers may or may not experience selected mutism.
It depends on their skills and abilities. People with Aspergers are not limited in many things.
You could talk to a psychologist and tell them the signs of Aspergers that your husband is showing. That way if your husband does have Aspergers he can get medicine for his symptoms, but not all people with Aspergers need medicine
You might have aspergers A doctor would be able to tell you for sure. Are you smart compared to people your age? People with aspergers tend to be smarter than average
Yes he did I believe. People with Aspergers are very creative, talented, and always think optimistically from other people around them. So Kurt thought the same way as many kids with this syndrome do.
