I'd talked with our marriage counselor a couple weeks ago about my belief that my husband has asperger syndrome. We all met today. The counselor basically outlined the problems we've discussed for two years and asked my husband a lot of questions about his needs possibly particular to aspergers. The...

DrLaugh, May I ask when you were diagnosed? My husband and I are in our late 50's, married under four years. Our marriage counselor is going to introduce the idea tomorrow to my husband that he has some tendencies associated with asperger syndrome. My husband's five-year-old granddaughter also has q...

Valia, Thank you for the two links! Both are helpful. I have an appointment this week--while my husband is still out of town--with the marriage counselor we've seen. I am hoping to get a contact for an appropriate counselor who has experience with NT/Ausp marriage problems. A good thing is that I'm ...

Valia, I am so very sorry to hear about your illnesses and having to cope on your own. That must be both physically and emotionally draining for you. Yes, it would be good to have a small network of women to socialize with and to help each other. I'm in Texas. I did see online one night that there i...

I'm sorry you are struggling so with your wife. It sounds as though she does not understand much about Aspergers. I was a teacher for thirty years and had quite a few secondary students with Aspergers, and I've been on a crash course this last week to learn everything I can. I think both of you coul...

Valia, thank you. I am torn between being thankful that there's a cause for my husband's behavior and that he actually loves me and then the negative of knowing there's little chance of anything ever changing. I was diagnosed last week as having thyroid failure; actually, almost nothing in my body i...

NT wives here, were any of you the one who approached the subject of aspergers with your husband? My husband is helping his aged parents this past week out of town. When he returns, I'd like to discuss this with him, but I'm pretty sure he'll be unhappy. He does often say that we have communication ...

I'm an NT wife. After reading extensively this past week, I'm thinking my husband of 3.5 years is Aspie. It's a remarriage for us both; we were both widowed. My husband's first wife had pretty bad depression; her back pain caused her to be in bed a lot. They raised two children. I suspect that her d...
