Does Asperger's Syndrome get worse

Answer 1

No. It does not actually worsen, but when a person with Asperger's reaches puberty, he or she can come under tremendous pressure and stress. So even though there is no actual cure for Asperger's, it can be made less noticeable if the person with Asperger's is taught the correct ways to behave. This can mean going to occupational therapists, speech therapists, or the like.

The more positive work you put towards helping the Aspergian, the less noticeable the Asperger's will be.

Even though Asperger's does not worsen, it can become more noticeable during, and just before, the teen years.

Answer 2

Yes. Stress often makes the symptoms of Asperger's Syndrome worse. A person might have very few symptoms of Asperger's Syndrome in low-stress situations, but have a meltdown in high-stress situations. Alternatively, a person with autism or Asperger's Syndrome might start stimming in a stressful situation as a way to calm down.
