- Abstract
Summary: This article is written about and by a group of three adults diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome and one neuro-typical person (neuro-typical refers to someone who does not have Asperger's syndrome or autism). The group has called itself the Asperger's Consultation Group and was formed in 2010 with the aim of conducting a piece of research to identify how adults with Asperger's syndrome felt about the services they received. The group was initially formed as part of a PhD project. The group has now expanded beyond this and continues to meet. The group members are Katrina, Laura, Duncan and Jackie. Katrina, Laura and Duncan have been formally diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome.
