I still have Asperger's because we use the ICD. They first claimed they were going to keep Asperger's because they were accused of always following the DSM. Comes out they are indeed going to follow again. I don't even get why they bother with that manual when they have no thought behind it.

So when the new ICD comes out I will no longer have Asperger's. People who say but it was always under autism anyway, don't get it. There is absolutely no way I'm going to say I'm autistic. If I did, people would look at me strange.

But then again I didn't agree with the old manual either. I feel it misunderstands autism and also misses out on important things. At least DSM 5 takes in count sensory input problems but groups it under restricted pattern of behavior. Seriously?

I don't think people are going to give up Asperger's so easily. Despite what the manuals say.
