What Is Asperger’s Syndrome Anyway?

What is Asperger’s Syndrome anyway? Is it like autism? Can someone have ADHD and Asperger’s? How is that determined? In this show Thomas Brown PhD and I discuss the answers to these questions and more. Dr. Brown is one of the pre-eminent clinicians and authorities in the field of ADHD and associated disorders, I am privileged to have him as my guest today. Dr. Brown has published 30 scientific journal articles and written seven books on ADHD over his career as a clinical psychologist specializing in the field of ADHD and co-occurring disorders. After serving on the clinical faculty of Yale Medical School for 25 years he recently relocated to Manhattan Beach, California, to open the Brown Clinic for Attention and Related Disorders. His latest book is ADHD and Asperger’s Syndrome , which is the subject of our conversation today.  Dr. Brown can be reached at: BrownADHDclinic.com.

Outside the Box, Dr. Brown’s fifth book, is a comprehensive explanation of ADHD and how it intersects with its co-occurring disorders – Anxiety, Depression, Emotional Dysregulation, and time blindness to name a few. The latter two are not separate disorders but IMO they are the most impairing qualities of ADHD.  Read, listen, and learn!
