yeah, then that doc is confused between RAD (Reactive Attachment Disorder) and autism. And one can have both, and one can have RAD simply from being face blind, meaning deaf, meaning blind and having body agnosias... essentially one experiences oneself as cut off due to severe sensory perceptual disorders, or due to significant health disorders disrupting bonding process. its an archaic world.
what she means when she says 'autistics can't speak', is the presumption that "all autistics" have severe aphasia, oral dyspraxia, selective mutism. Clearly this is not the case.
Yes, I agress. But a lot of people -even doctors- think that. Very often they are not right informent or there "knowlage about autism is far behind. I once met a Doctor, not so long ago, who still believed in the refridgerator mother theory.
Thanks peaceandparty. I tried to make it realistic. high functioning autistic people have a lot of treouble finding a doctor who understands whats going on. I'm used to it that my pediatritions I had over all those years know nothing about it.
This reminds me of the time I saw the doctor about my emotional problems and he said it was just hormones.
when there is a lot of evidence against this

a lot of people will relate to this one no matter what condition they have
i love the line of"but you are normal" from the("expert"...lol) doctor

heh... that's why I never got diagnosed as a child... in Russia it was the exact same thing. I don't know about now, though.

That sort of attitude is not uncommon in the United States either. It's quite irritating.
