To support somebody with Aspergers Syndrome you've got to try and give them plenty of independence, understanding and time to get to know them. Having been supported myself by a support learner I was left bitter as the support learner treated me like a remedial.

Check out the Mayo Clinic website (link below) for some information on the treatment of Asperger's Syndrome.

Learn about the condition, yourself, so that you can explain it to the person who has Asperger's Syndrome, so the person understands the difficulties it causes. Asperger's Syndrome is a difference in the brain wiring, so drugs will not "cure" it, but they can help with some of the symptoms.
