The usually symptom of schizophrenia is sensing (any of the five snese) of something that doesnt exist or is present. Other syptoms can vary as there are different forms of schizophrenia but common signs are paranoia, confusion and irritation. Also, avoiding people is common with the paranoid schizophrenic.

Aspergers does not have this. Instead AS is noted for the individual to be socially awkward (doenst know what to do) and having strong interests with specific things. AS is a high functioning austism and the individual does not need medication (unless they have severe ADHD, depression or anxiety) where as schizophrenics usually need to take medication to help keep their senses "in order".

How do you divorce someone with aspergers?

From reading that question it seems to me that before marrying your husband or wife you didn't know that they had Aspergers and now that you know that they have Aspergers you wish to divorce them. The person that you married is still the same person that you married even though that now they have been diagnosed with Aspergers. Now that they have been diagnosed things could be made generally better for your husband or wife. If you wish to divorce somebody with Aspergers then it is just the same as divorcing anybody else.

Aspergers is not a mentall illness it is not a diesease you can,t catch aspergers by being around someone with aspergers. People with aspergers are born with it. Although aspergers affects the way people think and veiw the world it is not a diesese. Recent aspergers studies have shown that in brains of people with aspergers there is a difference in the way the brain is wired and set up. and there have also been studies of aspergers brain waves and it showed the brain waves of people with aspergers differed from nerotypical brain waves. Just because people with aspergers think differently does not make them mentally ill there is a huge difference between the two.

I don't have all of the symptoms of Aspergers. I have a nephew with Autism. Is it possible not to have all the symptoms of Aspergers and still have the condition?

Each person who has aspergers has a different personality, and aspergers manifests itself differently in different persons. So, probably, no one who has aspergers has all the symptoms, because the combination is different in each individual.
