Interview with Sami Timimi where he touches on similar ideas concerning the validity of autism as a clinical diagnosis: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/rethinking-mental-he... An interesting quote he ends with: It pains me as a psychiatrist to say this, but as things stand I would recommend that you avoid seeing a psychiatrist. I know may great psychiatrists, but without personal recommendation, given the nature of current dominant models, you are putting your loved one in danger of being prescribed medications that may lead to some short term gain at the expense of long term enslavement to a 'chronic' disease model, addiction to difficult to come off meds and lack of empowerment to take control of finding a path for their own recovery. |
