The only way they can solve overdiagnosing is to stop widening the spectrum to the size of the galaxy. The problem is, if you make the criteria more lenient, you have more diagnoses. Since they've done that, you now have situation where if you make it more strict, the people getting services becaus...

Judging by what RFK Jr said and what has been said on this thread, he is apparently looking for the cause of "low-functioning Autism," as high-functioning autistics (and those who have what used to be Asperger's) can have a job, write a poem, etc. So I'm thinking most of us on this site ar...

What RFK Jr misses for many of us is that we succeed despite life. Many of us weren't born with a silver spoon in our mouths, and we've had to take time to sort out who we are and how useful we can be in the world. Most people without autism, down syndrome, or other syndromes may find it easier to f...

He doesn't seem to have any background in medical science, so why is he the health secretary?

Because he helped Trump with his campaign.

I think it's just the spasmodic dysphonia (it affects the muscles controlling the vocal cords) he has that makes it sound like he isn't pronouncing the words correctly. That works for riboflavin, certainly. He might have even said "Riboflave." However, that doesn't account for the adding ...

Couple thoughts: First, this appears to be an old video? Twitter is no longer called Twitter. It is called X, or sometimes "X, formerly known as Twitter." You would think both the guy hosting it and the Anonymous guy would have that down by now. Second, I do not think the election was &quo...

I think there were a few (not many) things on Project 2025's wish list that would be too much for Trump. For example, outlawing porn, cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid (so that it hurts the payouts to the people who are on it, not for WFA), and a few minor things. There are also things...

I am currently taking too much from people. I share too much, put bait out there, and then get upset when other people confront me. People think they have to remind me about simple stuff, and then when I am doing things that I don't need to be reminded about any more, they think they need to remind ...

Any online groups that people are aware of? Trivia is one of my favorite games to play, even if I often get the questions wrong :P

I used to have a best friend for years until he died. We talked about everything and spoke to each other multiple times a day for hours. Now I don't have that friend and there's a big hole in my life. Want genuine friends, but where I live is kind of isolated and hard to get to. I do talk to his wif...

My concern is that I lost skills to be mindful and don't know how to regain them.

Yes, talking with therapist -- or will next week.
