disclosing aspergers

Right, the people who live their lives under such conditions are the one that are mentally ill. If they were fully realized, healthy individuals they would not be able to adjust with out a fuss to an environment that if they had any sense of self they would not be able to live with.

My former employment counselor recommended me reading Asperger's on the Job. I found it was a very good book including covering questions about your thread and other questions you might have.

Another member found the book useful if you view this resource https://www.aspiescentral.com/resou...with-aspergers-or-high-functioning-autism.28/

Welcome. They have it both in electronic and paper format.

The biggest thing of the book help me understand my life more of all the troubles I been having for employment and make many changes for my life. It was not easy. I do have some people to advocate for certain issues when it arises.

No

Nope. Never ever ever do that.

Should I tell perspective employers about my Asperger's?

No, no, and did I mention, no? Unless you absolutely HAVE to, do NOT mention it! Most NT employers have never heard of it, and even if they have they're often misinformed about what it is/means to the person who has it.

Is honesty always the best policy,more often than not is my best guess

It may be good for the employer to know about any potential requirements or possible issues that may arise.

It may not be so good for you,prejudgement and assumption may or may not be a concern.

But if you don't try you'll never know, worst case scenario you leave and never look back
