Has anyone else noticed this happening? I just saw a bunch of it on a post and it made me really angry. I can cope with and understand people not understanding mental illness but I've been seeing a number of posts of people responding, 'autistic' towards people who are not as if an insult to someone, kind of in the manner of how people say 'gay' to call something stupid. I'm just wondering as to why this is happening and why more widespread understanding of a particular mental illness leads to responses like this.
