What Can You Recommend For A Child Probably Having Aspergers And No Differential Behavioral Changes?

My daughter was told by a psychiatrist at her college she probably had aspergers (she was a senior in college. This was over a year ago. As a teacher, I never saw indications of this growing up. Can this appear later in a child s life ie. in early twenties? She is convinced she has this, and explains her behaviors as a result... I am trying to be sensitive, but I don t agree. She is currently seeing a psychologist and they have talked about this. She also contacted a psychologist with this specialty and he doesn t take our insurance but is creating a group for her to attend. What can you recommend?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The first thing is she should not be informed about directly to her. There is a possibility of creating by her own, the symptoms.
If her self or the parents face any problem then only it is to be considered for treatment.
If you want to be clarified consult a physician to exclude the aspergers syndrome.
Try to divert her by yoga, meditation. Encourage her to live as she was living, and tell her that there is no variation in her behavior.
Give her more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
