10 Asperger's Symptoms
Symptom #4: Difficulty with Eye Contact
Individuals with Asperger’s often find that it is difficult to initiate and maintain eye contact with the person that they are talking to. Some think that this is due to the lack of confidence. Many with this issue describe that making eye contact can be extremely difficult for them and can be unbearable.
Some experts also believe that individuals with Asperger’s have issues with eye contact as they do not realize the role and importance of eye contact for social communication. This leads them to force eye contact which can become unnatural and inappropriate causing others to feel uncomfortable.
