Please Dr. Harley or anyone else who might know, is the plan able to work when a spouse has Asperger's syndrome? What about another mental disorder such as OCD? For those who don't know, Asperger's is considered an autism spectrum disorder and people with the syndrome have problems regulating emotions and sometimes have outbursts, have trouble with empathy, don't show emotion appropriately although they have them, etc. I have a husband with Asperger's. He does not seem capable of meeting my needs on many levels. I am almost at my wit's end. I had a stroke after giving birth, we are in foreclosure, he in unemployed during summer and only partially employed during the school year, etc. I have no money for counseling.

Hi Tema,

I don't know the answer to your question, but I think that people who post on the MB 101 forum might do. Several of them have coached directly with Steve Harley, Dr Harley's son, and some have taken the MB weekend seminar, which is run by Dr Harley.

To move this tread over to 101, click the "notify" button and ask a moderator to move it. Good luck.
