Autism Spectrum Disorders ASDs:

New!

 Autism in the Family  is a new website created by a mother who has Asperger syndrome AS and bipolar and has also a son with AS. A very informative website with clear information about what it is like to have AS and bipolar.

The website offers a positive slant on AS:  

"I believe that Autism and it's spectrum is a gift to the world. I know that is a rather bold statement. I am a woman in her fifties diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome who has a B.A. in Psychology gotten in the late 1970's. I have raised my son who is also diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, although early on he was diagnosed with autism proper because of his early speech delay. I wish to discuss my thoughts and feelings about autism and bipolar of which I am also diagnosed with." From the Introduction to Autism in the Family - Home

The National Autistic Society - Home

"We champion the rights and interests of all people with autism and aim to provide individuals with autism and their families with help, support and services that they can access, trust and rely upon and which can make a positive difference to their lives.
 
Our website includes information about autism and Asperger syndrome, the NAS and its services and activities."

Wrong Planet - Aspergers and Autism Community

Very useful forum ideal for those feeling isolated as a result of an ASD

"Wrong Planet is a web community designed for individuals (and parents and doctors of those) with Asperger's Syndrome, Autism, ADHD, and other PDDs. We provide a forum, where members can communicate with each other, an article section, where members may read and submit essays or how-to guides about various subjects, and a chatroom for real-time communication with other Aspies. Asperger's Syndrome, a pervasive development disorder, is a form of autism."

Autism One Radio.

A worldwide, web-based radio station which includes programmes with the latest information concerning the care and treatment of children and adults with autism. This is an excellent resource and may be of interest also to anyone as often OCD and other anxiety disorders present with autism and many people with OCD and anxiety disorders often have at least traits of autism and in some cases a duel diagnosis. If you are not able to listen live programmes there is a link to download previous programmes and also an archive.
