    No. Not real. It is no longer a diagnosis. That means it is not real. Your link even says it “formerly described” a disorder. Do you know what “formerly” means?

    And your self-diagnosis is also meaningless. Even psychiatrists do not self-diagnose.

      that is not what that means and the word “formerly” has nothing to do with it and you’re kinda being an asshole

        So doctors diagnose people with a diagnosis that is no longer used in the DSM to diagnose people? That is what you’re saying?

        Those doctors are committing malpractice.

        Please give me their names so that I can report them to their medical boards.

      You are absolutely wrong it’s 100% real it just got merged into the ASD (Autism spectrum disorder). Please do research.

          it’s not us being pedantic, it’s reality. In reality, a thing can be redesignated and not be made unreal by the act. Sorry! It’s inconvenient I know.

          Well, I do believe I have ADHD, OCD, maybe autism, Schizoid PD (NOT schizophrenia) maybe more. So yes. I very much so believe it has something to do with it.

          If we change the name of something or the category it belongs to that doesn’t mean he underlying thing doesn’t exist. Also, I know what formerly means.

            Oh, okay, then I guess people are still ‘retarded’ and not ‘low-functioning autistic.’

                People can absolutely be retarded

                Wow.

                And your evidence for that is a website for an app.

                Jesus.

                  It’s the first link that explained the difference I came across.

                  Wait, do you think people can not have mental retardation? What?

                  Ok, here Wikipedia instead:

                  “Mental retardation, also known as intellectual disability, a disorder characterized by significantly impaired cognitive functioning and deficits in adaptive behaviors.”

                    And now you’re lying about what’s on Wikipedia.

                    https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Mental_retardation&redirect=no

                    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellectual_disability

                    Furthermore-

                    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellectual_disability#Terminology

                    Did you think I wouldn’t check?
