You aren’t wrong. Diagnosis of Aspergers was used to describe high functioning ASD. In the US it’s not used as a diagnosis anymore since 2013. If you hear someone has Aspergers, what people mean is that someone is on high end of Autism spectrum (mild ASD). People still say “Aspergers” casually, it’s just not a proper diagnosis anymore
Thanks for this!
