I Had Asperger Syndrome. Briefly.

4. I didn't get at all that this piece was saying "Asperger's is fake." It's more pointing to

the difficulty of rendering an accurate diagnosis. The pros readily admit to this, with the exception of those who are more than willing to jump to a conclusion. I've had people close to me in treatment in the mental health system and also those who work in the system. My concern is how much influence "big pharma" has over the writing of the DSM. Meds do have a place but I firmly believe they are over-used or used inappropriately.
