Syndrome?

[inbfenby]

Is there a named syndrome or condition for when people only see the world form their own point of view?
Thought it was Asbergers but that doesn't quite seem to fit.

Thanks- paul

Hi infenby, you are quite right, my son has been diagnosed with Asbergers syndrome, and it can also be described as ASD. (Autistic Spectrum Disorder) People affected do tend to see the world from their own point of view and cant understand that other people have emotions too. They are often seen to have strange behaviours EG. Biting themselves, smelling everything. They see the world differently to us and their care has to be modified accordingly. People with Asbergers tend to have no positive relationships and struggle with society in general.
The positive thing is that these people are very intelligent in many different ways as they often have one particular area of interest and can become somewhat of an expert in that field..... Hope this helps!
