This psychiatrist is completely albleist to the autistic community. We do not approve of his work and find it his opinions unethical. His statements that ASD are overly diagnosed sounds like insurance companies are putting pressure on him. Oncology reports cancer numbers are high as well. Do we change criteria for when we start treatment? This man is oblivious to what ASD actually is. He made a YouTube statement that it’s overky diagnosed because they’re making television shows about it now. It’s because more people want acceptance. A deinstitutionalization movement took place and is still taking place. People aren’t locking up their children anymore like doctors like you wanted back in the day. It’s always a doctor whom isn’t actually autistic that wants to make changes and recommendations to the DSM-5.
