Not directly. There is a higher rate of suicide among teens with Asperger's Syndrome than among neurotypical teens. During the years that many teens feel peer pressure and that they don't belong, it is often worse for those with Asperger's Syndrome.

Also, people with Asperger's Syndrome sometimes engage in self-harming activities such as banging one's head against the wall. Self-harm is not the goal, but it can happen. No. It is not a disease. It is a neurological disorder. People with Asperger's syndrome have difficulty with social interaction, communication and can have obsessions/compulsions about certain objects or activities. People with Asperger's can be extremely intelligent, and generally are high-functioning.
