Looking at the diagnostic criteria of Asperger's Syndrome and lists of characteristics commonly found in people with Asperger's Syndrome is a start on recognizing Asperger's Syndrome in adults. However, adults can learn accommodations, so it can be harder to recognize. You can get additional information from family who might be aware of childhood characteristics or of adult idiosyncracies that would not be noticed under most circumstances. One more source of information is the person himself or herself, who might share thoughts and feelings that he or she is able to camouflage in most situations.

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.
