Coping with AS Per 2


 

Simple changes to daily routines can help with coping of Angelman Syndrome. Having structure and order to life helps to not overwhelm the mind. Finding certain communication techniques that work well in the home environment, should be used outside and in public areas. Using alerts and alarms is a good way to keep order and attention.

People affected by Angelman Syndrome can lead normal life spans. Early detection and diagnosis are important for dealing and coping with this disorder. The disorder does not continue to progress throughout life, which is why finding a proper diagnosis of Angleman Syndrome is very important in the early stages. Symptoms such as seizures and motor delay digress with age. There currently is no cure for Angelman Syndrome, however, people take sleep medication and anti-seizure medication to lessen the symptoms.
