That's not how it works.
We are the medical industry and have codified the diagnosis of aspergers to be far encompassing and include people who have absolutely no real impact on their lives, but we've convinced them it is a problem and now we're going to provide them with a pharmaceutical and psychiatric therapy to help them "cope" with it -- GIVE US MONEY.
- astrange 13y agoWhat are these pharmaceutical and psychiatric therapies given to people with Asperger's syndrome?
- nknighthb 13y agoAspies are not systematically medicated. Few are ever medicated. Sometimes, medications not specifically indicated for Asperger's, such as antipsychotics and antidepressants, are used to treat extreme symptoms. These would be given whether the symptom came with a diagnosis of Asperger's or not, and usually are not consistently maintained at a high dosage long-term. There is no "Asperger's pill". I only wish someone could come up with one.
