Asperger's Syndrome - Autism Society - 1 views

  •  
    One of the major differences between Asperger's Syndrome and autism is that, by definition, there is no speech delay in Asperger's. Children with Asperger's are very intelligent but have great difficulty with social settings.

    This article is about discrimination against mentally ill people in the workplace. It includes negative experiences of those who have mentioned their illness during interviews, and those who are already employed.

    This is so true and sad. I have a friend who has bad PTSD and they treat it as a joke at his workplace. Mental illness is so prevalent and even now we are finding out so much about it and just how many people are affected by it.

    I do have a problem with this because I have Asperger Syndrome. I do hear of some getting fired just because of their disability. I would never want to get fired because of a disability. If they did that to me, I'm hiring a lawyer. I'm sure that I'd win the case because they would find it as discrimination.

    People with mental illnesses should not be treated differently, they did not ask to be born with an illness it just happens. Humans should be look for more ways to help people then discriminate them. It saddens me that mental illnesses seem to be frowned upon more then saying you have been to jail.
