Almost all Asperger’s sufferers have some level of OCD.
Out at UCLA there is a Dr. Jeffery Schwartz who specializes in OCD. He wrote a very good book called:
“The Mind & The Brain: Neuroplasticity and the Power of Mental Force”
ISBN 0-06-039355-6
That book explains how some of the traits can be “outgrown”. He uses physical disability to illustrate the way the mind can be re-wired.
It is an excellent read. You can probably find it in a decent local library.
This is what should be applied to those with PTS and also those with suicidal tendencies. Healing the brain, like physical therapy. Exciting stuff. Thanks for the post.
