Asperger Syndrome and Alcohol / Matthew TINSLEY

Public ISBD Titre : Asperger Syndrome and Alcohol : Drinking to Cope? Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Matthew TINSLEY, Auteur ; Sarah HENDRICKX, Auteur Editeur : Londres [Angleterre] : Jessica Kingsley Publishers Année de publication : 2008 Importance : 144 p. Format : 23,4cm x 15,6cm x 1cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-84310-609-8 Note générale : Bibliogr., Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : ASP-J ASP-J - Asperger - Vie Sociale Résumé : Asperger Syndrome and Alcohol exposes the unexplored problem of people with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) using alcohol as a coping mechanism to deal with everyday life. Alcohol can relieve the anxiety of social situations and make those with ASDs feel as though they can fit in. Ultimately, however, reliance on alcohol can lead the user down a path of self-destruction and exacerbate existing problems. Utilising their professional and personal experience, the authors provide an overview of ASDs and of alcohol abuse, and explore current knowledge about where the two overlap. Tinsley explores his own personal history as someone with an ASD who has experienced and beaten alcohol addiction. He discusses how the impact of his diagnosis and his understanding of the condition played a huge part in his recovery, and how by viewing his life through the prism of autism, his confusion has been replaced by a greater understanding of himself and the world around him. This inspiring book on an under-researched area will be of interest to professionals working with people with ASDs, as well as individuals with ASDs who may be dealing with alcohol or substance misuse, and their families.

This book identifies why this is the case by asking the individuals concerned what they find difficult about working. Looking at expectations, motivations, working conditions and other factors, Sarah Hendrickx explores the reasons why work just doesn't work for many people with Asperger Syndrome and how to resolve these issues. Featuring personal stories from those with AS, the book highlights successful scenarios and provides suggestions for both employers and those in search of work on how to improve employment for the benefit of everyone. Asperger Syndrome and Employment provides essential information for those making the decisions and acknowledges what people with AS really want from a job so they can make employment work for them.

Insights into intimacy from people with Asperger syndrome and their partners / Nicola MARTIN in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 12-1 (May 2011)

It uses comments from couples where one partner has AS and the other is NT and also examines comments made by respondents with AS to a large-scale survey. Reasons underlying the differences are suggested which give pointers to the ways in which friendships and relationships might be enhanced. Locating the problems within the person with AS or viewing the difficulties experienced as a necessary consequence 0f AS is both inaccurate and damaging, so the authors suggest that it is encumbent upon NTs to be empathic and to change their behaviour to facilitate and support social encounters for people with AS.

Format : 23,4cm x 15,5cm x 0,7cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-84310-605-0 Note générale : Bibliogr., Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : ASP-C ASP-C - Asperger - Affectivité - Sexualité Résumé : What are the motivations and desires behind relationship choices and sexual behaviour? Are they very different for those with Asperger Syndrome (AS) than for anyone else? Does having extreme sensitivity to physical touch or an above average need for solitude change one's expectation of relationships or sexual experience? Many people on the autism spectrum have limited knowledge of how to establish or conduct sexual relationships: drawing on extensive research with people on the autism spectrum, the book openly explores such questions. For the first time people with AS discuss their desires, needs and preferences in their own words. AS attitudes to issues such as gender, sexual identity and infidelity are included, as well as positive advice for developing relationships and exploring options and choices for sexual pleasure. This accessible book is an invaluable source of information and support for those with Asperger Syndrome and couples in which one or both partners has Asperger Syndrome, as well as counsellors and health and social care professionals.
