Thread Name: musicians with Asperger's Syndrome
Subject: RE: musicians with Asperger's Syndrome
Dammit, OK: What I was trying to say with my first two comments, but failed miserably, apparently: Yeah, I know Asperger's is a real disorder, etc. But I think that most of the people currently being diagnosed with it do not have it. They are being treated with drugs, such as Prozac, and I think that this is another case of pharmaceutical companies successfully marketing a disorder to psychiatrists. Which is, yanno, wrong and shit.

And, seriously, it does need a new name. :)
