Asperger Marriage Instant Help

This App aims to help the spouses or partners who are married to or in a long term relationship with someone diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome or more likely, suspected Aspergers Syndrome (AS).

Please note that this app works best with larger devices like iPads and iPhone 5s and larger - on these platforms full non-linear hypertext reading is enabled, otherwise a linear "book" format is adopted for smaller devices.

This is an honest account of what my life has been like with my AS husband and how his Aspergers has affected our marriage. We have had many crisis moments over the years but most of these have been through joint ignorance of my husbands condition. With realisation came a long getting to know you process and learning more about the condition and Davids idiosyncrasies.

I want to share with you the everyday, nitty gritty, tiny details that most people outside of your family would miss, that really affect you as a couple. I have gone into detail about these and explained why these behaviours happen. Not every man with AS is the same but you will recognise some of these behaviours in your husband or partner.

I graduated with a Masters in Autism from Northumbria University and used my 18 years of experience (research) of living with my husband to write my dissertation about our marriage. I couldnt help but be worried when he read through my dissertation at the end as I was concerned that I may have misunderstood some things or upset him with some of the detail. I believe it was probably quite hard for him to read how much his behaviour over the years had affected me but all he said after he had read it through was that it was very insightful. I knew then I had done a good job.
