Asperger Syndrome is not something that people 'get', a person is born Autistic.

Autism is a neurological difference so it is formed when our brains are formed within the womb during the second trimester, it is genetic in nature so dependent on our parents. Many people are not diagnosed until adulthood but this isn't the same as getting autism as an adult.

Adult aspergers syndrome?

People with Aspergers tend to see large improvements as they get older. Children with Aspergers tend to be what others may say, "In their own world" as they may be obsessive with certain things and prefer to be alone. Teens with Aspergers tend to be more social and aware of themselves and this is a rather touchy area as with other teens. Adults with Aspergers may or may not be viewed as being an Aspie as many adults can "mask" the issue by acting as how others behave or doing what needs to be done. Normally adults are seen as normal yet "off" but this alone is normal as they have Aspergers.
