How Do I Tell My Brother he Might have AS?

Post Reply New Topic

Hi Im very new to this and have only recently heard about AS. After reading about I have realized that the symptoms describe my brother to the letter.
My brother is what i would describe as selfish and pig headed and I think he would dismiss any possibility of something being wrong.
How do i go about talking to him about this?

Good question. I have been wondering how to tell my sister that I think she might be an aspie. I think it might help her deal with extended family if she understands her issues better. I have bought some books to give her on the subject, but still havent' found an appropriate moment to give her them.

I have told her that I think I have aspergers, but I dont' think she really understands what I mean by it. I emailled her a chart of "symptoms" in women. She didn't say much about it.

I could try that, but she doesn't like reading and isn't liable to extend any effort to do something that doesn't revolve around herself.

Actually, thinking back to the list, she did mention it and said, "Yeah, well I think there's something wrong with everyone."

In my opinion just leave a book about aspergers somewhere they will find it, they will probably pick it up and read it to find out what it's about, then relate to it and keep researching aspergers.
