Hi,

I realise that to improve social skills involves practicing in the real world, but does anyone know of any useful online resources for improving social skills?

Thanks

I only know the game Unmasking The Face at neurodiversity.org, which can be helpful if you have difficulties reading feelings on faces.

There was some disturbing stuff on that site under murder of autistic persons. hardly anything does but that makes my stomach turn. I know that wasn't what you were referring to but thought that i would just throw that out in the open

wrongplanet.net. Specifically, the social topic category http://wrongplanet.net/modules.php?name ... ew_topic=3

Also, The articles section has some great social skills articles:

And of course, the forums are an excellent resource themselves. You can search the forums for previous people's topics that might have answers to your social problems;
