Autism in the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual | Embrace Autism

The Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual is a diagnostic manual grounded in psychodynamic clinical models and theories. What does it have to say about autism?

Embrace Autism
@arisingvoice This is an article that includes a lot but you can skip down to #8 in the contents, they talk about Autism vs Asp*rg*rs and how autism is broken into autism and HFA (high function autism) in the DSM-5 and ICD-11, which just became operational this year (the ICD-10 still has Asp*g*rs in it) but the PDM-2 disagrees and finds that it is premature and not nuanced enough to remove it. If I understood it correctly. That said, this article doesn’t disprove anything unfortunately but it does show that they aren’t split anymore.
This also isn’t what you’re asking for exactly, but this breaks down the diagnostic criteria in the DSM-5, which is helpful in seeing how what it does and doesn’t tie in for “intelligence” and functioning and what parts of it are ableist and how to interpret it. https://embrace-autism.com/decoding-autism-in-the-dsm-5/
I think I have some more things tucked away somewhere, I’ll try and look for them later!
Decoding autism in the DSM-5 | Embrace Autism

The diagnostic criteria for autism of the DSM-5 can be confusing, ableist, and pathology-based. Let me explain what they are, and help you make sense of them.

I can't help but notice many toots from helpful newbies encouraging you to support the Mastodon Patreon.

It's fine to do that but understand it goes to just two big instances and the official Mastodon dev team.

It does NOT trickle down to YOUR instance. If you want to support your server, donate to it directly. Nearly all the costs of the explosive growth of the past few weeks is borne by local instances.

Mastodon is decentralized. There is no Mastodon Inc. This is not Twitter.

I don’t know how to find a place that’s going to let us bring our animals even if we DO find a way to afford moving. Unless we could ALSO find a way to afford vet appointments to get full explanation and clearance for a new landlord.

If anyone happens to read this and knows of any resources and can send them to me I’d be really appreciative. I’ve read up on local tenant laws and all. I struggle to understand what I’m reading though.

1) We get rid of our animals and we can continue renting.
2) We write a formal notice of vacating within 30 days allowing us w/o a termination on our rental record but still have “non-compliance” notices on our record
or
3) They terminate the lease and we have 60 days to move out.

I still haven’t been approved for SSDI and I literally don’t know what to do bc our city is already in housing crisis
