I have read some of the reasons why in several articles and threads, have been in discussions with people who have been in the disability ministries for decades and others who have children with Asperger’s or autism or have either one. Almost all agree with me and see it as more harmful than good to include Asperger’s. The articles tend to make me cross-eyed if they aren’t coming from people who live their lives with or as Autistic or Asperger’s.
Yes, I agree. I am weary of the confidence of the Psychiatry Profession and their confidence they can help with issues of the mind.
I have greater confidence in those who use therapy to treat OCD. I believe in neuroplasticity. The mind can be conditioned to be rewired.
